Good luck Blue!

Take care Zoe. My BP was 150/90 yesterday, but that's nerves and white coat syndrome. I'm on no meds and don't want to be. :)

I'm o.k. I went to a convenient care clinic for a cellulitis and was disappointed with what the scale said.........ugh. I've been bad for sure.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Tweety}}}}}}}}}} so you have taken it yourself, outside of the office?

Mine was good yest. afternoon (relative to what it was!)...

As to the scale, ugh is right - dr's scale was up 4 lb from what the one at home says! But that is always the case ... Again, it is all relative. If MY OWN scales show it's going down, I'm happy.

What's up with the cellulitis?

BP 140/90 today. Ugh......I'll be on medication soon if this keeps up. Zoe, I've got a hot cellulitis to my left elbow. Probably from an ingrown hair. I'm on antibiodics so it hopefuly will get better in the next couple of days.

Usually I can keep my BP unders congrol naturally, so I'm going to keep up with that for now.

But about a year and a half ago I didn't eat for about 2 weeks - dropped a ton of wt - but guess what - ya make up for it later; so it's not worth it to be green AND skinny! LOL!
