Stomach pains suck!

So, I didn't do my weigh in this week because I've been having some really bad stomach aches. It feels like it did before I had my gallbladder removed, the sharp burning pain just below my ribs. I know it's not my gallbladder, but it's been very uncomfortable. And because of that, I've been trying to eat when it happens because that seems to be one thing that helps. I was up a bit when I did step on the scale, but I haven't been drinking water either. I went to the doctor this morning and he is sending me for an ultrasound, and has given me an antacid for the time being. It's really getting annoying. It has been happening off and on for a few weeks but Friday and Saturday it was horrible. I was laying on the floor in pain! My doctor said it could be a month or so before I get in for the ultrasound so until then, I hope the medicine helps!

I was going to do day 2 of week 4 on Sunday but I felt horrible. And then I was gonna do it yesterday but my stomach hurt and I had a pounding head ache! I'm hoping I can do it tonight, if my stomach isn't too bad. I hate this, I really want to run!

I launched my blog for my cakes http://amandascustomcakes3.blogspot.com/ and I already got one customer off of it! I don't know how busy I'll get or anything, but I would honestly be happy with 1 or 2 a month. I have 3 this month, and 2 next month. And lots of different themes! John Deere tractor cake, dinosaur cake, Cars cake, the Princess and the Frog cake and a family reunion cake! I'm very excited!!!!

Phew!!

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, it seems like life has just gone crazy these past few days!! I finished week 3 on Monday night and started week 4 today. I did take a few days off in between but I've been on my feet lots doing baking and stuff so by the time the evening came, I was too pooped! It was very hard tonight! I had to run 3, walk 90, run 5, walk 2 1/2 then repeat. By the second 3 minutes I was so tired but I pushed through and kept going. By the 3rd minute in the last 5 minutes I was almost about to give up but knew I could do it. And I'm glad I did! I'm really wanting to start running outside soon, but I want to get a bit better first. Maybe week 5.

I've been baking some Easter cookies and cake pops the last couple of days for this weekend and it was fun! Here's some pics!

I think I'm going to sign up with WW online. I've found it to be a bit difficult to track. I find myself popping anything into my mouth while making dinner or the kids lunch. I guess I could always sign up and if I don't use it, I could just cancel it.

Anyways, off to crash!
