Chels - hopefully the hubby doesn't have swine flu!
I'm up and at it already at work. I'm up to the full 2000 mg. of Metformin now (for the last 3 days)...took me about 3 weeks to get up to this dose as the dr. wanted me to increase it slowly. Last couple days I've been plagued with nausea that just comes and goes and then after lunch yesterday the "other" kicked in and I thought maybe I had food poisoning or something, but I'm convinced it was the medicine. No wonder people report weight loss on it, geesh! TMI, right? LOL! Sorry! I hope these side effects let up or I'm not going to be able to take this stuff....I was put on the ER kind b/c it supposedly has less side effects than the regular...maybe I'm still getting used to the increase. That was a big jump; 500mg to 2000 mg.
Anyway, stayed OP yesterday and and I was very proud of me!
It's raining cats/dogs in my neck of the woods this morning. It's a good day if you are a duck. Was hoping to have the grass mowed this eve. but might be too wet for that. I have a house full of people coming on Sat. for my son's 4th birthday party. Yes, you know what that means don't you...CAKE! I think I'm gonna have to have a real good plan for Sat. so I can enjoy a small piece of cake with my baby...soon as I know what that plan is I'll share it!
Carrie, hope the side effects go away soon. I know that nausea is one that they warn of.
Brooke, congrats on the great loss. Keep up the good work.
I was down 2 pounds today. That makes a total of 89.5 gone. Hope to lose at least the last 0.5 next week to make 90. Guess I'll keep counting points for a few more weeks. As much as I love the way I feel on Simply Filling, I can't argue with the results of counting points for the last 2 weeks.
