Cardiology appointment
2:26 p.m. - 2007-01-18
First: you can see my pretty new ticker underneath the entries. I did weigh myself last night, and decided that my first goal will be losing 25 pounds, and therefore getting back into the 120s. I haven't been there in a while, so I will wait and reassess when I get there to see if I need to lose more or what. I'm only five feet tall and a bit, but with my build, I am just not meant to be really skinny - I have hips, etc. And I'm okay with that. I think my first mini goal will be to lose 10 pounds, and when I get there I'm allowed to buy the first season DVDs of Grey's Anatomy. I'll probably have rewards every five pounds after that, since it's easiest at first and then gets harder. ANYWAY. I also wanted to write that I had an appointment with a new cardiologist this morning. I had open heart surgery as an infant, and I'm fine now, but I need to see a cardiologist every few years just for a check-up. Since I live in a different state now, this was with someone new. They did lots of tests and basically said I'm fine. Yay! It wasn't too big a deal, but I get nervous about making appointments and driving to new medical centers and things like that, so I feel like it was an important step for me to take in taking care of myself.
