Default Re: Hello! Nice to meet everyone!

Hi Carole, thanks!!!! Yes, the water thing is hard but yesterday I managed 70.8 oz. of water ... not bad but I pee'd like 10 times ... I don't have time for that!!! Ha! As my husband said ... "Oh, but you have time for dialysis?" That put things into perspective for me!

I had a major downer before I went to bed last nite .... I got on my Fitday last night and did all of my logging and somehow it logged 1 whole onion as 25 g of carbs???!?!?!?!?!?! I was distraught. It threw me 25 carbs over for the day!!!! My husband felt even worse since he made my dinner. I'm going to do research today. There cannot be 25 carbs in an onion....can there be???

I had my blood work drawn on Thursday, had my measurements taken on Sunday and I had my first session with the Weight Management Psychologist today. I feel like I can't give up because I'm accountable to all these people!

Thanks for the encouragement, I am looking forward to the support I can give and get here!
