5 Year Journal Day 244

      Today's prompt is "What was the last wedding you attended?" My mom's wedding. 

     It is now 11:11 p.m. here. Today was a recovery day. I did not do much because of the pain I was in. I got up for the cable guy appointment, but went to bed soon after that. I slept for most of the afternoon. I was just exhausted. It was gloomy and dark outside and drizzling rain. 

     It was not a busy or a productive day at all. We did get the cable box exchanged in the living room, but were unable to fix or replace the cable box in my room. I am ok with that for now. At least we can watch movies in the living room now. 

     Tomorrow I have 2 dental appointments back to back at the VA. The second one is for a cleaning. The first one, I am guessing is just an exam. Caleb will go with me and wait in the car in the parking lot. After my appointments I have plans to take Billy grocery shopping. I am not worried about dinner because I still have leftovers from the last two meals I made. 

     So, my highest weigh-in was December 7th at 335.8lbs. ,and on January 25th I weighed 321.8 lbs. So I have lost 14 lbs.! Holy crap! That's more than I thought. I want to get under 300 lbs. so badly. I only stopped drinking soda on January 12th. The holidays cause unintended stress. I started taking Spironolactone 25 mg and Lisinopril 10 mg on January 9th. I began taking a prebiotic and probiotic on January 16th. I began taking 5 mg glipizide twice daily on January 21st. 

     Thursday I will likely need another recovery day. Friday we have no appointments either, so we will likely pick up where we left off on the house cleaning. Of course everything is pending my pain levels. 

     I have to contact Investigator Higgins about not receiving a call from the Army investigator.

     I have to call about the hematology bill I received for an appointment made through the VA. Apparently New Hanover Regional Medical Center and associates do not know how to properly submit the bills to the Community Care Network department of the VA. 

     Caleb just woke up. It is now 12:05 a.m. I don't have much to report as not much happened. I am going to go ahead and take my iron pill and orange juice and go try to watch some of the videos I have been meaning to watch.
