Okay, second doctors appointment over.

I forgot to tell you what my blood pressure was. It has always been
high as you guys know for a few years now.

Well I found a solution to get it closer to normal about a year ago.
so now its still a little high, but today it was 134/86 which is still high
but its so great for me. They like it any where under 140 and when
its under 135 they really like it. I realize its still high but I've been working
on getting it down. And I'm so happy.

I finally have figured out I have to remember to tell them not to use the
machine and to use the manual machine, it works better for me. It helps
a lot. Last week, I was so happy even the small cup fit my arm, it just made
my blood pressure go over 140. So the girl had taken it again and it went
down a lot so they were happy.

So will keep going as I can. Now for my really big news to me. I've been
working on weight loss, its not fast at all for me. Nothing has ever worked,
and it just has to be what I can do. Today I weighed just about what I did
last week, usually its about either 3 lbs higher or lower one appt, or the other.

But it was 212 last week, 213 today. With shoes today. So I could easily have
weighed less, and I have needed to have a bm. but couldn't finally did
when I got home. So who knows maybe soon I'll get to my wish for a 200.

That is my immediate goal, if I can I will be so happy we will see.

I've been working for years on this. From 250 to almost 210 in probably 4 years.
