So, as most of you know, I have PCOS, and so I’ve been taking metformin since November for my blood sugar issues that come with it. Recently, my stomach has been waging war on me every time I eat, so I decided to stop taking the metformin and see if that’s what was causing it. Bam. I found my culprit.
So I haven’t been taking it for a couple of days now, my stomach is PERFECT, and I’ve been checking my blood sugar at different times, fasting and not-fasting, and it’s been normal every time. I’m pretty excited, because I’d love to be someone without blood sugar issues/pre-diabetes. I have gained a few pounds since November, so I was worried that since I hadn’t decreased my weight too much that things wouldn’t be normalized.
I’m still going to keep checking and see how it goes, and obviously talk to my physician, but I would love to not have to be on a medication like this anymore. I think I’m happy.
Y’all know I work at a vet clinic.
A man just came in with his Pitbull. Beautiful young dog. Incredibly sweet and good-natured. Licking my fingers as I’m trying to weigh her.
He’s here with her because she was picked up by the city running loose (while in heat). She’s not vaccinated,…
This. THIS MAKES ME ANGRY. How can people be so heartless? I’m right there with you, Sarah, on the anger part. I can’t imagine how you felt hearing that. I could not have kept quietly while he talked.
Wow. Just wow.
Boyfriend took me to New Hope and we walked around all the shops, then he took me to the mall and bought me the most beautiful black & white diamond ring with a matching necklace, and tonight we’re going to relax and have a tv show marathon. Last night we went out to dinner (where I guiltlessly enjoyed a chocolate martini and triple chocolate cake)…everything is so lovely.
EDIT: AND he surprised me with the prettiest flowers I’ve ever seen. All my favorite colors. Perfect.
I truly have the best boyfriend ever…and not just because of the presents.
- Scored an 87 on my nursing final, and got an 87 as a class grade too! Thanks everyone who wished me good luck :)
- Boyfriend is home, life has been amazing.
- SO excited for our ‘Bee Appreciation Day’ date, either tonight or tomorrow. Finally going to wear my Betsey heels and my 4 petite little black dress :)
- Finally on summer break and I. am. loving. it.
It’s hitting me all at once that my nursing final is tomorrow and I’m absolutely convinced I’m going to fail it. Even though that’s pretty much impossible.
My laptop started smoking, yes, actual smoke, this afternoon, so it looks like I need to find a way to purchase a new computer sooner than I thought. Awesome, more bills.
Thankfully, my boyfriend came home a day early so I’m going to try and relax with him tonight and not worry too much about this test. After tomorrow, I can breathe.
Feel amazing :)
Ready for sleep, all relaxed!
- I need to update my icon picture! My hair is now short and darker (thanks mom for dying my hair!)
- Got some amazing deals at the mall today, totally relaxed me!
- Boyfriend. Home. Monday. Cannot. Wait.
- Having a family barbeque tomorrow, and my goal is to relax…while studying.
- Eating was eh today.
- I’m waiting to hear from a potential employer to see if the job interview is confirmed for today.
- I’m waiting for my recent nursing exam grade to post.
- I’m waiting for the dryer to finish so I can switch my clothes. (lame, I know)
WHY ALL THE WAITING.
My eating was not bad for the first day back on track. (Okay, I did eat peanut butter out of the jar and, okay, I kindof want more right now but other than that it was great)I didn’t exercise, and I should’ve, but hey I’m trying.
I passed clinical! Alright, I knew that I would, but still yay! No more gross, smelly, workers-who-don’t-give-a-shit care center. Next semester I’ll be at the hospital.
For whatever reason I cannot concentrate on studying right now, so instead I’m going to chill and watch tv, and chat with my boyfriend! I’m very !! right now, and I don’t know why. But I like it.
okay i’m going to go get more peanut butter don’t judge me
