Booo bloodwork....

So, Wed the 24th I get my first round of bloodwork with the new doctors. No food or drink after midnight the night before, no biggie I've pretty well given up late night snacking, and 3hrs worth of time in the Dr's office getting bloodwork done. Not my idea of fun. I'm a bit nervous though. They are going to set me up with a diatition that's going to tell me I have horrid eating habits, and that I can never have bread, pasta, or potatos again in my life.

This has been an uphill battle for years, one that I've pretty well be losing. I want to be normal, but at the same time I think that my abnormalities are part of what makes me who I am and I'm almost a little scared to give that up. I like being in control and having some skinny blond that went to school to study food telling me what I need to do with my life and eating habits isn't exactly what I like to call, enjoyable. But I'm going to do it... I've been eating like hell the past three weeks becasue I know after the 24th everything will change.

I decided to start this blog after finding out that 6+ people on my myspace friends page have PCOS as well... it's so common these days but still such a mystery to most doctors. I'm very happy to have found specialits in my area that really seem to know what they are talking about... I'll update this when I feel blue, happy, sad, depressed, any emotion connected to this journey will get put here for the entire www to see... I'm really a private person and it's very hard for me to open up and do things but if my diet, exercise plan, and openess about struggles can help someone else I'm willing to put my selfishness aside and share this journey in my life.
