In a Bad Place

Today’s weight: 128.3 lbs
So this morning I had to have lab work done on my thyroid.  I have hypothyroidism and have been on medication for about 4 or 5 years.  I took a prescribed drug for bipolar disorder, Zyprexa, which shut my whole thyroid down.  I have since been taken off Zyprexa and have since been put on Levothyroxine for my hypothyroidism.  I don’t see the Endocrinologist until May 28th, but thought I would get lab work done now, seeing the Endocrinologist won’t refill the script without seeing me first and I haven’t seen her in a year’s time.
I was planning on skipping breakfast and lunch, but my sugar levels crashed again and it led to me eating pretty much all day.  I feel disgusted and I’m pretty sure I will have gained another two pounds as well.
My husband and I went for a walk around the block this afternoon.  I went on my knee scooter.  I didn’t think walking in the boot would be cool for my ankle and it certainly was a hot one out there so I didn’t think I would have been happy with a hot and sweaty foot.  So I took off the boot and the sock and just rolled right along side my husband in his wheelchair, me on my knee scooter.  We went for almost a mile in about 20 minutes time. We saw a baby alligator behind the house where we live.  They are also building up a dog park behind our house.  Perfect seeing we just saw a baby alligator in the pond across where the dog park is going up.  We came home and I’m sweating and chugging water.  I haven’t had much exercise or any movement since April 2nd and it felt good, rather tiring, to be outside and free again.
