So this is how I feel today...I'm not sure if its because AF came to rear her ugly head on Friday or if it's from the Met.formin I started last week. I've had (TMI) diarrhea pretty much every day since I started it, sometimes more than once a day. Then AF brought some killer cramps with her as well. I just want to go back home and curl into a little ball on the couch and watch me some Lifetime!
We had a good weekend. Friday I was off so I met my friend L for lunch at Pappa.deaux's. Since I am also trying to eat better, I had the Lobster.Seafood.Salad. I don't think I've EVER not had something fried from there so this was a definite change for me. It was really quite good with big pieces of lobster, shrimp, and scallops. We did some serious catching up. Then Friday night, we packed up the pic-a-nic basket and took Maddie to the park to see the Norma.Zenteno Band. A couple of people from work and some neighbors joined us for the gourmet hot dog dinner and music. What a small world this is... D used to play trumpet professionally so he knew the band. As he was talking to the drummer, we realized the drummer's wife works at my company! We had a good time listening to them.
Saturday I went to a planning meeting for a July 5th block party for our neighborhood. This is the first big one we've had. We had one 2 years ago, but it was when not very many homes had been built so it was pretty small. This one will have food, drinks, and games! Saturday night was party, party, party! We had a birthday crawfish boil (which we had to leave early - BOO!) The crawfish were YUM-O. The first ones we have had all season. Wish we could have stayed for the pool party too. This was followed by a surprise 30th birthday party for our neighbor. He HATES surprises and was very surprised that his wife was able to keep it a secret for so long! It was casino themed and even had a poker, blackjack, roulette, and craps tables with real dealers! D didn't get home until 4 AM!! The guy finally learned how to play Texas Hold 'Em!!
We spent Father's Day at my parents with yet another fish fry!
Hopefully these cramps go away soon because I start taking 2 Met.formins tonight and I surely don't want the POOS X 2!!!
And I haven't done one of these in a while...
Grateful for:
- Leftover Baked Potato Dip and Brownies from the cookout (probably not on my "eating plan" but oh well.
- Joined a new gym that opens in July, hopefully to get rid of some of these pounds
- the neighborhood pools are finally open!
4 nice things to say...:
Why, oh why, do we get stomach issues along WITH the period. As if the period wasn't bad enough!
Hope you feel better. :)
Sounds like a fun weekend! Hang in there with the Met if you can make it past 1-2 weeks it gets a lot better.
Yes, it does get better. You'll learn which foods are definate "no's" for you. I found that lettuce and bacon go right through me now! Hang in there, take some Immodium-it helps majorly!
Hi from NCLM. I hope you are feeling better. I always have issues when AF comes to town. I hope the meds aren't making you sick!
