Stick a Needle in My Eye!

So tomorrow is my weigh-in day and I am a little nervous.  I told myself I would be satisfied to maintain my weight while on vacation and I hope I really meant that!  I will not be able to make it to my Weight Watchers meeting tomorrow.  I have an appointment with my eye specialist in Greenwood.  Fortunately, I found a Weight Watchers location there that I can just walk in and at least weigh-in!  I am dreading tomorrow’s visit to the eye specialist.  For those of you who don’t know, I have an eye disease called Punctate Inner Choroidopathy (PIC for short).  I was diagnosed with it about 7 years ago and lost a lot of vision in my left eye.  In the past year I have lost vision in my right eye.  Most of my vision loss is central vision and I am now in the legally blind category with my vision being 20/400 with my glasses.  The treatment for this disease right now is Avastin (a chemotherapy drug) injections in my eye ( that’s right, a needle in my eye).  I have to have them about every month.  What stinks is that last time my eye pressure went up so high that I could not see anything.  So tomorrow they will most likely use a needle to draw fluid out of my eye and then give me the injection (2 NEEDLES)! So you can see why I am a little nervous about my visit tomorrow.

After reflecting on yesterday’s blog entry I decided that if I had to be an addict, then I should be able to transfer my addiction to food over to an addiction to exercise.  Now I have to get my brain to agree to that! LOL!

For lunch today I had an amazing new Lean Cuisine meal!  You must try it!

Hopefully I will survive the 2 NEEDLES tomorrow.   I hope to write a post, but if not I will at least give a weigh-in update!

Keep Losing.
