I’m thrilled I’m losing weight again. I’ve begun to eat very small meals about every three hours at the advice of my doctor. It made sense. She told me I had a hiatal hernia and that stress and weight gain would give a person a hiatal hernia. I did my research and I don’t think weight lifting gave it to me whatsoever. I think I’ve had it for a long time because I’ve had the same symptoms for years. Only recently (when I got health insurance) I started going to doctors regularly. I don’t have health insurance now but screw that. i went to the doctor and begged for a student discount for a poor $$ nursing student LOL. I told her my whole paranoid tale of woe about my mother being misdiagnosed and having cancer for nine years spreading in her belly. She must have thought I was crazy but she understood my very detailed description of my health.

I really do have a mistrust of doctors right now except for a few that are gems. I’m supposed to get a thyroid level drawn and be tested for lyme’s disease. Today I purchased some things from the bb.com store. I’m in the home stretch of nursing school. Must get going to prepare for tomorrow. I want to go to the gym first thing in the morning and see what 30-45 minutes of cardio is like on an empty stomach. WISH ME LUCK.
