so far its safe to say..

That the pain I was having at Easter that landed me in the ER is most likely Acid Reflux. I've been taking Prilosec for 4 days now and these last 2 the pain has practically subsided! THANK YOU JESUS!!! The doctor was leaning more towards my gallbladder malfunctioning and even did an ultrasound to see if I had any galstones, THANK YOU JESUS there were none. I've been talking to my aunt who is a dietician and I've come to learn that this very well could be linked with my obesity. So, I've sprung into action...I call this "dieting" not really a diet but more like good choices, and that I'm saving my life one good choice at a time. While I'm on this theres no caffeine and no alcohol while I take this medicine, so ok I'll take it one step further and say for the most part, no soda for me! I'm letting myself have thursday nights as my "not so great choice night" since that is family game night and we typically all eat some kind of a meal together. So that time together is my "freebie" time, in portion controlled doses of course! And I'm not calling it jogging but more, "Running for my life." lol I'm jogging again to get my weight under control and to save my life! Theres nothing like a medical condition to slap me in the rear and get me going toward a healthier me!

Oh, and for those that don't know, my boyfriend and I split up. Long story short between the distance and my unwillingness to move/compromise my morals, it killed the relationship. Its better this way I suppose. I miss him. alot.

Get out and enjoy this beautiful weather! I know I have been :-D
