I finally went to the doctor yesterday about this rash I have everywhere that I have itched so much the last 4 days that every fiber of my body was swollen. I had a severe allergic reaction, I am assuming, to the shrimp I ate Sunday.Maybe it's my punishment for eating shrimp alfredo... heheehe.He gave me 2 shots and put me on a steriod for 5 days. The swelling has gone down a bit and I lost 1 pound off the 1.5 I have gained so far since Sat, so maybe there is hope of still loosing a pound this week. Back to focusing on the water now as I refused to drink any the last 3 days due to the swelling. Did the treadmill last night and ate good. Same with this am and already have 2 bottles of water down.Still have 2 1/2 days until weigh in, so I am going to pound the pavement...... All I want is to be able to fit in non plus size clothes and wear a bathing suit again and feel comfortable to take the wrap off. Not looking for perfection, just enough to love my body again...
