I had my annual “lady doctor” visit yesterday.\u00a0 No, I didn’t take pictures, and no, I won’t be giving you any intimate details.\u00a0 Some things are left unblogged (take note, bloggers).<\/p>\n

I definitely managed to leave her speechless though.\u00a0 As she said “I thought this appointment would be easy.”<\/p>\n

I have managed to gain 15 pounds since my last appointment a year ago.\u00a0 I knew this.\u00a0 Weight has been creeping on regardless of what I’m doing.\u00a0 So I’m being sent to an endocrinologist, and they’re recommending I consider following a diabetic-style diet.\u00a0 Essentially, low carb, low sugar.\u00a0 My blood sugar is fine, but it’s just an idea for how I can try to lose.\u00a0 So I’m going to ease my way back into that one.\u00a0 I did South Beach years and years ago and did lose weight on it, but found it hard to sustain that lifestyle.\u00a0 I’m going to try to incorporate as many of the concepts as I can into my life, and once travel settles down, think about officially following the plan for a few months, just to see how that goes.\u00a0 I feel like a good jumpstart would do wonders for my psyche.<\/p>\n

I also get to start having mammograms at 35 instead of 40.\u00a0 Still a few years away, but just another fun thing.\u00a0 Definitely not complaining – I’d rather be safe than sorry.<\/p>\n

Led to a funny conversation with my Mom though:<\/p>\n

Me: Yeah, so the doc says I need to start mammograms at 35 instead of 40.<\/p>\n

Her: Oh, because of my cancer diagnosis?<\/p>\n

Me: Yeah.\u00a0 No big deal though.<\/p>\n

Her: So when did they schedule the appointment for?<\/p>\n

Me: (slight pause)\u00a0 Mom, I’m only 32.\u00a0 You should know this.<\/p>\n

You’d think she wouldn’t want to add years to my age since that just adds years to hers.<\/p>\n

Also doing some medication changes with the doc which could be glorious or terrible, but we will find out soon.<\/p>\n

And to all of you ladies who haven’t had an exam in over a year – what are you doing?\u00a0 Get out there!\u00a0 It’s not a big deal.\u00a0 Seriously.\u00a0 Take care of your bodies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
