Well Hey There. It has been some time.
Buddy and I are still staying with J&M (daughter and partner).
I have not been entering online contests much lately so I was late entering contests for December, so hoping for, but not expecting a big win. I have mainly concentrated on trips for the kids. There were quite a few Super Bowl packages I entered for the Son and then trips around the US but mainly concentrating on New York for the Daughter.
I finally went to the Dentist about my broken-off crown, only to be told about a dozen other problems. Ba Humbug.
I have lost about 30 pounds on Ozempic and have had little problem with it after the initial break-in period. I did notice I have been losing a lot of hair lately. I researched any connection between hair loss and Ozempic, and while it is not directly linked, it is linked to poor nutrition. Guilty.
I have enjoyed buying some new clothes lately and retiring old standbys. For some reason, I seem to have gone shoe crazy. I always go down a foot size when I diet. So when I ordered a pair of Kenneth Cole Reaction booties, and they fit so well I ended up buying 3 or 4 more pairs. I feel rather snazzy in my Leopard print or snakeskin booties.
Do you think it was an attempt to move the focus point from my pink scalp and thinning white hair to my trim feet? I'll never tell.
More later ....
It is good to read you again and know that you and Buddy are doing well. Good luck with the contests. Have a great Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHello Barbara, It's so nice to meet you. Sigh... I have the other problem. I'm losing too much weight. My front tooth broke so I've had to get Invisalign. This means I can't snack. I have to keep them on 22 hours a day. This is worrying my husband because they tell you that at our age you should have some extra weight to rely on in case something goes wrong. Sigh...
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Ozempic weight loss! Glad you're not having problems with it once the initial adjustment was made, that's great. Because food intake is so reduced on Ozempic, vitamin and other nutritional deficiencies can occur if you're not careful with what you eat. I got severely anemic and now have to take iron supplements precisely because of that. It might be worthwhile having your doctor screen you for any vitamin or mineral deficiencies that may be related to the hair loss, so it can be rectified.
ReplyDeleteI'm going in the other direction with my weight but I'm so healthy I can't get any of the new drugs covered by insurance. And I'm practically bald now. Not really but it sure is thin up there. You sound like you're pretty happy where you are. I always was a shoe lover. Have fun shopping.
