So on my last post, I talked about how my doctor wants me to either wait a month or until I lose 20 lbs...well, I think I've finally made a decision on it. And to tell you the truth...it's going to one of my harder ones. I've been thinking about this really hard since I last saw the doctor.
I've....yes, just me (Logan was either way which didn't help much)...have decided that I am going to wait and go back to my main goal when I started to see Dr.Wheeler. I have to get down to my goal weight or half way before I think about having a baby. Right now I have about 40 lbs left to lose to get me in the 130's. I want to have it all gone though. I was talking to my sister (who by the way when through her own health problems like IR, Cervix Cancer and what not...which she has cured/is able to control them). She talked about how easier it would be for me to control my conditions if I had lost all the weight and manage to get everything under control. Plus it would also help out with the pregnancy itself. When I thought about this I thought that there was no way that I was going to be able to get through another miscarriage the way that I did this time...it would just be too hard for me and I would probably end up in depression for a while. With losing all the weight or even half, it would be easier for me to hold the baby full term too. It will also give me a chance to do a full body detox which I have been meaning to do for a while.
I know that I am going to have troubles along the way but I really think this is what I am suppose to do. I may get down a lot about everyone having a second, third or maybe even fourth kid but I know in the end, I will be healthy and happy and so will my kids.

Doctor's visit 3/16/12
So....I had another doctor's visit on the 16th. I was called in early because I was actually suppose to be seeing her on the 22nd. I got there to find out that they didn't have my next appointment on the 22nd but on the 5th of April because it was cancel or something like that while they moved to their new place. Anyways, one of the most important reasons why she asked me to come in early was because so have some thing that she just learn about that she wanted to go over with me and she also wanted to put me on some more supplements that will help me. I didn't really get bad news but it really wasn't great news either about my health. The miscarriage has done a lot of good things for me but it also has it's bad things too. I've lost a lot of weight when I lost the baby...I got down to 176 lbs and now I have gone back up to 180 lbs. My body is having a hard time adjusting from the pregnancy...hormone wise. It also took it's toll on my thyroid so now I have a little high than I should be. The goal is to have it around 3 to 1 and right now it's at a 4.5. Dr. Wheeler also knows that it's taken an emotional toll on me for multiply reasons.
She has put me on vitamin B3 Niacin and something to help with losing all the fat cells in my body. What the second one is for is that Dr. Wheeler explained to me that there are two types of bodies...ones that store the fat cells and are able to release them easily too or the ones when they store fat cells but have a hard time releasing them. She thinks that it will help me out a lot with losing the weight. She also said that the next time I go in (April 13th) we was going to talk about more about what will happen if I do get pregnant sometime soon. She kind of wants me to wait either a month or until I lose about 20 lbs. She's pretty positive if I lose the weight I will be easier for me to carry the baby for the full pregnancy. That's about it for now. I am hoping to get to 175 by the end of the month but we will see...most likely not. But I can hope.

February Goals
Today is the 1st of March (thank goodness!) February was such a hard month for the both of us. Anyways, so update on my heath. As you can tell from the last post, my heath is getting much better! My hormones are becoming more normal by the passing days since the miscarriage and it's really causing me to be tired most day. At the starting of January I was 185 lb...I kept that weight up to the point of losing the baby. Now I am at 178 lbs and my pants are having a harder time staying on me which is really funny. I am still working on losing some weight from my tummy since it has the most to lose and it will help out so I can move on to the next size pants I have. Also last month, Dr. Wheeler changed some things with my medicine. I am now on a personalized tincture mixture that meets my body's needs. It is so nasty tasting though! It taste as if I am drinking tree sap...well, that is what Logan says (he tired it to see what it tasted like). When I first started to drink the stuff I had to make sure that I wasn't going to throw it all back up. I also got off a lot of the supplements that I was on besides the cinnamon capsules. I still am taking my metformin for my insulin resistances and my thyroid medicine which I have already lowered once since I got put on the new tincture mixture.
By mid to late month, I will be doing another post. I have a doctor's appointment this month due to the miscarriage, the shot and the new medicine. She just wants make sure that my body is doing fine with such a quick change. Anyways, I will let you guys know what the doctor says.
