11.04.2003 Weight: 265Mood: puzzled Well, I went in yesterday to get the bloodwork done, and the doc called me this morning to say that my levels came back normal. BP was normal, too (at least I assume so -- he didn't make any comments on it). Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to tell him about the extra pill on Saturday evening, so I don't know if that threw off the reading or not. I'm going to muddle along for another week -- if there's no improvement, I'll go back in and ask for another blood test, and maybe exploration of other reasons why I've been getting dizzy and tired. I don't think it's the Atkins -- I eat a lot, I take a multivitamin and fish oil tablets every morning, I drink the required amount of water, and hell, on the occasions I did have some carbs I felt even worse. I dunno -- maybe this could be some kind of weird allergy? God knows Texas is allergy-central, and mucking around with my inner ear could cause the dizziness. We'll have to see. On an up note, I'm at a weight I haven't been since Montreal, and that feels great! I'm now 105 pounds away from my ideal weight, which is a huge fricking improvement over 130. Slowly but surely (and now you know why I call this blog "Getting There"). |
