The Show Must Go On
It's Monday, time to weigh-in. Last week I weighted 389.9, this week 387.4. I lost 2.6lbs. I'm pretty satisfied with those numbers actually. I do wonder if I could have maybe bumped that up to maybe 3lbs if I had not skipped Friday's in-door miles, but oh well. MyfitnessPal made a big deal about today's weight-in with the below image below.
A few weeks back I watched the Billboard music Awards (which is an award show that essentially awards musicians for chart success/actual success), at which Celine Dion was honored with Icon Award and she performed a cover of Queen's The Show Must Go On, which I had never heard. It was fantastic, particularly because of the context in which why she was singing it. Her husband and her brother both passed away last year, within days of each other. Celine had to deal with two tragedies and still be strong for her kids and family. She accepted the award from her oldest son as she fought back tears (she didn't want him to see her cry) it was truly just genuinely magical. I actually teared up watching, there were so many things to take away. The show indeed must go on, if you can't do it for yourself, do it for someone else (who needs you).
Today, I'll look into the kidney specialist thing, I've been getting lightheaded regularly for that past several weeks and when I went to the psychiatrist last week the nurse said my blood pressure was low and asked me if I had been lightheaded or dizzy which I have been... often. I was told to talk to my doctor. My psychiatrist also held off on increasing a second medication until I bring her my kidney labs. I also just read that low blood pressure can cause kidney failure..................(remember that time I fainted last year? My anxious mind is really doing a number right now!)

| Of course this doesn't include what I lost before I started using MyfitnessPal, though even I'm not sure what the final numbers are. |
