Week 28

I got the results of my first glucose test and it was a little high.  So today I had to do the 2 hour test while fasting, it was kinda sucky.  First, they took my blood which hurt, then an hour later they took my blood again in the other arm and that really hurt too, then after the second hour they took my blood again and it hurt.  I've had my blood taken many times in the past year, so I've been getting better at handling the scare, but I've also had good luck having my friends take my blood without pain.  That woman was consistently horrible, I've had her take my blood before and I'm sure she hurt me that time too.  Granted, I'm a huge baby when it comes to getting my blood taken.  I was in the hospital when I was 5 for 2 weeks while doctors were trying to figure out what was wrong with me.  I was constantly poked and prodded, it may have given me a fright which still lives with me.  When my friend Jen, took my blood a couple weeks ago, I didn't even feel the needle, but this time it hurt the whole time the needle was in.  I hate getting my blood taken!! 

The nice part about today was when I was weighed I was 3lbs lighter than last month.  That's pretty sweet. And then my blood pressure which has been on the rise is back to optimal.  That made me pretty happy, maybe it has to do with all the fruits and vegetables that we've been eating, maybe it's all the puking I'm doing.  Who knows?  I hope my glucose test comes back normal, but if it doesn't at least I'm already off refined sugar.
