SUM...SUM...SUMMERTIME!

Hey Everyone,

    Happy August!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE summer!  I need to move to a place where its summer all the time.  Florida? Hawaii?  I'll take either.  How do I get "mine" to go with me?

   I got an awesome birthday surprise from my besties!! They drove from NJ to spend a girls weekend with me.  It was an amazing weekend.  We did one of those "paint and drink wine events"  which was so much fun!  Can't say its the best piece of art I've ever done but it was the fun the mattered!

   This months doctors visit was pretty uneventful.  Mostly just the normal...too much phosphorus and potassium and not enough calcium and protein.  This month the doc added Fiber to the mix.  I'm supposed to eat oatmeal for breakfast and eat an apple a day.  YES, the doctor prescribed " AN APPLE A DAY!!"  That made me giggle!  Not a huge apple lover, so i bought one of each variety the store had and we'll see who wins!  So far, the one from New Zealand is WAAAAAY to sweet!!! I'm keeping a log of all of them so i know which ones to get when I finish these!  I'll post my findings in a few days!

   I started working out with my Jillian Michael's Game on the Wii!  She kicks my ass and yells at me but its worth it!  AND I get to tell back at her, so its a win-win! Along with walking outside and doing a few other fitness things, i'm feeling pretty good!

   While the besties were here they were curious to how much weight i had actually lost...I had to do the math!!  LOL.  The grand total is...38 POUNDS of toxic gunk!!!!  That's just nasty!  BUT I feel better and isn't that all that really matters??

Much love and Kidney Wishes,
Katie
