So apparently not taking your water pill all week makes you gain 4 lbs. I am a little upset only because I feel like I am going to be on these water pills forever. I know that 4 lbs isn’t really weight, it’s just water weight because I eat right and exercise. I only gain weight when I don’t take the water pill. So I guess it’s back to taking the water pill tomorrow, I might as well move into my bathroom. Tomorrow I am going to the cardiologist to make sure I am not retaining water around my heart. Maybe they know why I am retaining water. My primary care doctor doesn’t know and I sure don’t know. I hope there is nothing seriously wrong with me. Work was busy and went quick. My counseling appointment after work was emotional because I saw the 4 lb gain and am a bit stressed about Patrick having no job at the moment. I know things will work out, but it’s just stressful to deal with at the moment. I am going back to the therapist next week just to talk and not fall back into depression. Tomorrow is the end of the work week, thank goodness. I am ready for the weekend. Tomorrow evening Patrick and I are driving to Mansfield to go to the Ohio Reformatory all done up as a haunted prison. I am sure I will be scared, but Patrick loves this stuff.

I need to keep my eye on the prize, I will succeed eventually. It takes time and hard work, if I could just not have a problem with the time concept. I finally have the hard work part down.

Remember, the scale only tells you what you weigh, not what you’re worth. Where have I heard that before?

Shut up, you’ve been repeating that to me all day. I should have never used that quote if I knew you were going to repeat it every 5 minutes.

I missed my water pill ONE DAY and I’m swollen. I so understand how you feel. We won’t need them one day. I promise.
