Weekly Weigh In 2020: Week 44, November 2, 2020

 

Weekly Weigh In will go live every Monday, and it will share how I'm doing health-wise, and it will give me more accountability with my health.

Here is my forty-third weigh in of 2020:

1. The Selfie: The selfie is me as of today, November 2, 2020.

2. Weight: My weight went just down about half a pound this week.  I wish it were more, but I'll take it! :)

3. Health News: I averaged just over 6,200 steps per day last week.  I'm glad that I was able to reach my goal of 6,000 steps per day average, and I hope to do so again this week.  I do best when I get in a daily walk or 2, so I am going to really push to do this even if the weather isn't 100%.

Still no word on my rheumatologist appointment.  I'm starting to think it was denied.  For now, I'll just keep on keeping on, and ask for an appointment with my primary if I start having issues again and go from there.

I would say that I'm doing pretty well overall.  I am still dealing with my quirks now and then (for example, I seem to be dealing with tendinitis or something in my left wrist right now, which is odd because I'm right handed), but other than that, I really can't complain.

4. Diet News:  Nothing new to report.  As always, if I follow my rules, I do very well.  Goes to show you that diet is definitely more important than we realize!

5. Other News: Please continue to pray for my middle kid.  For about 13 months now, he has been dealing with an unknown health issue that has been very frustrating to pin down (we're still trying to figure out exactly what's going on).  Going back on Pepcid vs. Tagamet seems to have helped reduce the headaches for him, but he is still dealing with stomach issues along with some other things.  He had labs run today, and he gets his second opinion from the new general surgeon tomorrow.  If you'd like more of a current update/rundown on his condition, you can click here.

As to our week, it is going to be insanely busy.  We had appointments today, an appointment tomorrow and one on Friday, along with school and family things.  Needless to say, I'm looking forward to the weekend. :)

How are you doing?  Do you have anything you want to weigh in with?  Any health progress or goals you want to share?  If so, please leave a comment below (with a link to your post, if you have one and wish to leave it), and I'll respond ASAP.

Have a great week!
