Posting through a sleepy mind. lol

But that's okay… could be entertaining.  But I doubt it. ;p

Crazy week.  So much going on that it's hard to keep up with it all.  No time for dieting, but I can pick that up again once the move is made.  Still feels so weird knowing I'll be living in the Montgomery area anyway.  Yes indeed.  Quite weird.  But… live is going to be awesome.  :)

House is closing on the 5th, so shortly after that a date will be set for the movers to come and pack everything up and take it all from A to B.  New fridge will have to go in first, as well as the security system.  Fence for the back yard will follow shortly (Julep is going to love that!), and an extra layer of insulation for the attic for good measure.  We made a unanimous decision against a Victorian and settled on 1940. ;p  Still super awesome, all renovations done before the house was put on the market, so the house is amazing.  Were there other amazing houses we were blown away by?  Absolutely!  But neither of us really wanted a $1500/mo mortgage. lol  Could we do it.  Yep.  Were were willing?  No.  Giant houses are gorgeous, but seriously…. the one we decided on is really, really pretty, and has plenty of rooms to keep up with. lol

Super tired… so this is all I can muster for now.

Nite nite!

"Yes!"

....was my answer to the question.

No explanation necessary.

Post-Birthday, Post-Weekend, Post-Toasties..

*snort*  Just kidding about the Post-Toasties.

Awesome birthday/weekend.  My bday fell on a Thursday this year, so the day itself I spent alone, but I came home from work to find a pretty black box leaning against my door with gold letters spelling "FTD" on the front.  :)  Inside were all sorts of pretty purple roses, white tulip buds, and some other purple flowers, all in a gorgeous glass vase.   Such a sweet and beautiful gesture, one that could have waited til the following day since we had plans for the weekend... but.... the explanation was....

"I wanted you to have something beautiful waiting for you on your birthday."

Aw. :)

It really was an awesome weekend.  Beyond awesome.  Very relaxed.  Very peaceful.  Very chill.  No rush.  No pressures.  No worries.  Just all the good stuff life has to offer.

I'm off this weekend, so there will be even more time for the good stuff.

Yay.  :)

HypoWHAT?

Wow.. lol

So, after a 15 lb loss one month, some strange symptoms (though I've had hints of them in the previous months) made themselves WELL known recently.

Dizziness
Severe sweating
Shaking
Difficulty concentrating
Difficulty speaking
Blurred vision
Weakness
Heart racing
Hunger
Sleepiness

It was so bad one day at work that I had to fight the urge to tell my boss that I needed to go home.  I felt like I really needed to lay down, to sleep, right then and there.  Trying to concentrate was near impossible, and worse... trying to hold a conversation with a coworker.  So I thought, because of the hunger (despite having eaten a couple of hours earlier).. maybe I was just hungry.  But it just..felt..wrong, somehow.

I decided to take a break and buy one of those huge MetRx high protein bars.  You know the ones that are basically like a glorified candy bar, packed with sugar.  But hey, it's got protein! lol  Well, within a few minutes I felt better.  After a few more minutes.. completely back to normal.

...But why hadn't the Greek yogurt and piece of fruit worked earlier???  A visit to my neurologist Friday explained it all.  Apparently, I'm now hypoglycemic.

Seems there's a bit of reactive hypoglycemia as well, because sometimes eating makes me dizzy as if I'd just had a couple of shots of alcohol.  Weirdness.

Apparently, until I find the right balance of protein and the right carbs.. it's going to mess with my weight loss (and I've been doing so well!).  But hey, it's just a bump in the road.  No biggie.  I'll whoop this thing in the butt.

Enough of the health update... now onto the post for the good stuff.  :)

Laterz, taterz! ;p
