Default I am on an apple diet

I started eating a lot of apples. maybe three a day. i love honey crisp. anyways i got on the scale today and was afraid because of all the food i have been consuming. I lost two pounds. I think all the apples are helping.
I fell down again last night. I was reaching over to see if it was abby on a i don't know what you call it and lost my balance and hit a big umbrella stand and fell over. my side still hurts but i didn't break anything. My back hurts a little too.
I have to be more careful. I am tempted to buy another pair of shoes which i love and don't know if they will fit. I am still in the binging and buying mode. today i go to the doctor's for a blood test. I haven't had one in a long time. I am afraid my blood pressure and a1c because of my weight gain has gone up.

I eat an apple or pear every night while we watch x-files. It helps keep me going and not hungry before bed time.

Although I did buy some fried and salty plantain chips that were really good from whole foods last night.
plantains have to be more nutritious than potatoes right?
Fried is fried...I should eat them sparingly!
good for you 2 pounds lighter bobby!

Congratulations on the 2lb weight loss, I hope you smiled when you stepped off the scale

I hope you aren't too sore from your fall and your blood tests come out okay.

I am glad that you are o.k.

I still hurt and then today i reached for something on the floor when i was on the bed and slide to the floor. this is getting to be a habit. I don't know where i can move the umbrella stand. it is so pretty. it is chinese and cost a lot. I already broke it once and had maria glue it together. I couldn't bear to throw it out.
I seem to be more worried about abby these days. she is about 14 1/2. she hasn't wet herself in four or five days. she only ate a little bit this morning.
My reaching for her was because i have been upset about her. I am also upset about my balance. I am a big woman. I just had chinese food yesterday. I had fasted all morning and was so hungry. My blood pressure was up to 140 over 70.
I really really like my new doctor. He is so cute and thorough. He comes from arkansas so i also really like the accent. Here i am seventy one and i can't wait to go back and see him because i find him so attractive. boy am i weird. He wanted me to test my blood pressure once a week but i told him because i am bipolar that would raise my anxiety and probably my blood pressure. He didn't push me to test my sugar. I said that too would raise my anxiety.
My side is still sore. I bid on another pair of shoes. Hopefully that will be it.
I got the bag and wallet and other pair of shoes yesterday. I was happy with all of them even though the shoes are a little tight on one foot. then i called my credit card to find out about the charge from the discount dental insurance for sixty dollars. they are crediting me with the amount! I have had so many nice things happen this week. I wish i weren't so depressed.

It's not weird that you find your doctor attractive!!! Do you want to hear something weird? When my grammy was much older than you she would go on about how handsome our priest was!!! A good looking guy is a good looking guy. You never have to stop looking no matter how old you get.

I think the best thing you can do for yourself and Abby is to focus on giving her the best quality of life you can. And and focus on enjoying one another's company. You must be a very loving parent since she has already lived to be almost 15.

I'm glad that some things are finally going your way Bobby! Try to enjoy it.

Its possible Abby was just not as hungry. Our dogs slowed down on
how much they ate. For a long time.

Wendy is now eating more at Derrick's than she did here in two or three
years. But I had gotten him a different food the first time. And he has
stayed with it.

not only did i gain back the two pounds i lost, i gained four pounds more. I am really scared. I am worried about my diabetes also. I think part of the binging is anxiety and a large part is the death of my sister. she wasn't a big part of my life but i still feel empty. I can't seem to deal with grief.
