Pavlov's Dog....

I had labs done today and my chloesterol is 189. This time last year it was 199...Looks like wt. loss and general "cutting back" on de junk has worked!
The scan shows gallstones, but I asked the doc for a month or so to bring it all under control.
I titled this post as "Pavlov's Dogs", maybe it was rats, I dunno...Anyhoo, Iam motivated (ie Pavlov's experiments) to continue losing, cutting de fats because the gallbladder issues spur me on.
I have more new "dents" around my ankles, and I feel some on my face...
I really feel good about how my wt. loss is going, Iam excited for the coming months! Yippeeee for Meeeee...lol

Dents wents.....

Well I've noticed new dents. I've got the ones on my wrists back, good to see ya! More dents on my shins also, Yea ME!
I gained back about 3-4lbs. and was able to shed it with lots of water, I'd been having too salty of foods lately... Weighing several times a week really does help me keep on myself with losing, am now 280...
After having a regularly scheduled GB flare 3 weeks ago, had a bad one tonite after a Rubios salad...Hmmm, won't be trying salad for a long time!
The work on the house should be mostly finished this week...Whew, sooo tiring!
