Well, I have my 1 year follow up with Dr Nichols on April 1 (oh what a day) and I am worried that he is going to rip into me again about not doing what I am supposed to be doing. I have been really good lately about making sure that I only have the 3 meals and not snacking. I am drinking my water and really watching everything that I put into my mouth...The biggest hurdle I have had is not being able to walk or ride my bike that much. You see on March 1st I noticed blisters on 2 of my toes and my foot (they are from new shoes and walking 6 miles aday), well since then I have been doing wound care(I am a type I diabetic) and taking more and more antibiotics...I have noticed that all this has maybe some weight come back on. When I last saw the doctor at 6 months I hadn't lost any weight since my 2 month follow up...Now I worry that he will be very mad at me, and I just don't want to disappoint him again. How do I go about explaining things to him about what has been happening for the last month. Up until I got the blisters I was doing so good getting the weight off again and proud of myself, now I am so disappointed in myself....am I just worried because I was bad for a little while? Or that he will think that I don't really care at all. I might have not been losing pounds but I have been losing inches....I just don't know what to do and all that is stressing me out too...
