Over half way there!

Sep 13, 2009

It has been like, forever since I posted last. I have been one busy lady. I am just over 1/2 way through my LPN coursework. Clinicals start back up Monday and Weds this week and last the last 20 weeks of the 2nd semester.I am shadowing a heap in Family Care Centers in the 1st 10 weeks which I am stoked about! It will be a nice balance between the floor I work on, Nursing Home Care, and acute levels of care.

My family has finally found a place down in the village. A whole house that rents for the cost of where we were at. Love municipal electric rates! The kids can walk to school, friends and the park. I can take a walk around town for exercise and walk to the store instead of drive.... Just good stuff all the way around.

I have not reached my goal of 135.. I have lost 110 from my highest, 100 from surgery date. Dr Cole said he wants me no lower than 145.. So I have met his goal. I had labs drawn and everything major looked good.. iron was a little low but mine always has been really. My sugars do tend to drop pretty low sometimes. Cant get a firm grasp on that, I try complex carbs to hold me... but maybe my body is just burning them faster than ever. The other evening I dropped to 43 which hit fast and scared me to death. I was home at the time so it wasn't as bad.. but I fear having it drop when I am driving.
 
I think once kids get all settled into school and I finish school Feb 5th... I will get into a better routine. Right now it is school all day.. homework, housework, kids needs, and repeat. But the plus side... is I have the energy to do it!!

Fav foods.. still love yogurt.. I tend to opt for Oikos Greek yogurt with a little fresh fruit. Chili.. homemade more than Wendys now. Love my hubbys Halupki Stew (although cabbage has its effects...)
