Home with a sick child today
Here I am, home with a sick kiddo, bored out of my mind. I did all my housework this weekend expecting to go back to work today but the Bug woke me up at 4am with fever/chills saying that her tummy hurts. I just knew it was the beginning of the stomach bug that seems to be going around. So far so good, just has her sinus crap going on. I've been rotating the Tylenol & Motrin every 3 hours on the dot and the fever has gone down. Hopefully it'll stay that way so she can go back to school tomorrow.
I have the big weigh in with the nurse today @ 2pm. By my scales, I've lost 20 lbs since Dec. Of course I wish it could be more but I didn't put it on overnight so it's not just going to fall off, right? I'll take what I can get at this point. I'm actually getting used to this way of eating. I've basically cut out flour, sugar, pasta, and starchy veggies. If I want something sweet, I eat a fruit or Sugar Free Jello. I actually had enough calories and carbs left in my daily totals on Friday to have a small cupcake. The good news is, it tasted like crap! It was too gritty and sugary for me. Never thought I'd hear my self say (type) that. ;)
Courtney, hope the OB visit goes well today. Keep us updated. Hopefully we can drag some of the other girls out of hiding so they'll post too. ;)
