Although I am still very interested in losing and maintaining weight while exploring and celebrating new and interesting foods, I find that I now have to learn how to manage this with LPR (Laryngopharyngeal reflux), an acid reflux disease that affects the voice and respiration.

Aaaalllll Uuuunnnnnwwwwwooooooouuuuuunnnnndddd
I made a really dumb mistake when I was packing to go to Minnesota. I forgot my levothyroxin. This is a medication that treats my hypothyroidism. In other words, I have had almost no metabolism. I knew I'd survive without them, and I felt fine while there, but when I came back, I started back on the medication and finally, on Wednesday, I started back on my diet. I've had headaches, aches and pains, and I've been very tired. Today, I've feeling a bit better. I'm hoping that my hormone levels will even out on their own. If not, I'll need to go see my doctor. I'll see how I feel by Monday.
Fortunately, Joey's been keeping me going. The fact that I need to walk her twice a day, albeit on short walks, has kept me moving. Without those walks, I think I would have stayed in bed and not moved over the last couple of days.
I have been doing a little research on kayaks. If I could find a reasonably priced, used, large, single-woman kayak, I'd snap it up now. I suspect that's not going to happen, and I will hopefully be able to afford a new one next spring.
