Water gives me Heartburn!



It really does.  I don't know why, I know it's not "logical" but I do - definitely - get heartburn from water.  I had a bagel with shmear this morning and 8oz of milk, and I never get heartburn from that stuff....  but I always, ALWAYS, seem to get heartburn from Water.  WHAT IS UP WITH THAT!?!?!?  

It's annoying.......  how many calories are in tums????  How much  10 ... 10 calories 2 tums (so 5 each) ... See ....... I looked..



So while I was looking at Calories and Carbs, I figured I'd see... just for giggles...  what my "Stash" of fruites was going to kill me when it mocked me enough and I broke down and ate it......


Well, that's not as BAD as I THOUGHT it was going to be.  Seriously, I thought it would be so much worse.  So a half a pack, every now and then .... would *almost* be okay.   Teehee.. 

So I had my appointment with the nutritionists yesterday.   She actually asked me why I came in because I didn't really have any questions, I guess I just wanted confirm some things from when I had Gestational Diabetes, that we had talked about and ask why my sugars aren't coming down.   It's a process ... yeah yeah.  Processes suck!  I am an immediate gratification type of girl.  She just kinda laughed, anyway, and said it's not often that people make her feel useless during appointments but I kinda did.  I was making changes that I needed to make, I had a basic understanding, and I was already losing weight (10 lbs in a month, 2 lbs this past week I weighed in yesterday on my Wednesday Weight-In) ..

Her suggestions for me....  to join www.thedailyplate.com to keep track of my calories. 

Carbohydrate recommendations:  30-45/meal or 2-3 choices
                                                  15-30/snack or 1-2 choices

Activity goal that I'm suppose to build up to, is 150 minutes per week

She gave me some paperwork, that will help me understand differences between this and that... I suppose...

Maybe I'll share them :D
