Junk Food and Pain!

The rest of our weekend at the beach was pretty great :)  Friday I ate really well all day (veggie muffin, fruit, baked chips, turkey sandwich on the beach, whole grain pasta with broccoli/chicken that I made for dinner and some low fat ice cream we got at the grocery store).  I even ran/walked 2 miles Friday morning!  GREAT DAY!  Note: About a mile into my run I felt a sharp pain in my left side/back...weird but advil seems to make it better :)

We had a GREAT TIME ON THE BEACH!  The boys had a blast and little beauty loved the sand and even took great naps while we chilled and I read The Help.  GREAT BOOK BTW!

Saturday was not so good...Bfast was a veggie sausage and lunch was a turkey sandwich then dinner was JUNK FOOD at the Boardwalk!  I had Trashers French Fries (the best)




Then I had Pizza and a huge Ice Cream Sundae at 10pm....ICK!  I felt like crap and I didn't run b/c I decided to take the day off...but hey I am on vacation right???

5am on Sunday the pain started!!!  Severe cramping in my upper abdomen, it almost felt like contractions.  That along with severe nausea made the 4 hour drive home (in the rain) HELL!  But I made it home, pain continued, and I went to bed!  SO GLAD Sunday was over!!! 

Yesterday the pain continued so I called my doctor.  He is pretty sure it is something with my gallbladder.  I have an ultrasound today at 11:15 to see for sure.  All I know is that I haven't really eaten since Saturday night...over 48 hours.  Last night I tried to eat a few bites of stuffed pepper filling but the cramps started almost right away.  Around 8p I was starving so I had a piece of toast and some pretzels and I didn't get cramps after that.  UGG!!!  I know it will be a relief if I don't have to have it out if it is my gallbladder but I've been cut open so many times in the last year (c-section and hernia surgery)...I've about had it!  OK enough whining...

The good news about not being able to eat is that I've lost over 3 lbs.  I am down to 210 (the lowest yet).  This is something to be thankful for right?  [come on silver lining]

That's all I got today...TTFN (210)
