I’m personally financing my dentist’s next four vacations.
Or really, Bob is.
Yes, I went back to the dentist today (we’re having the Thursday afternoon dating thing apparently). It was for a cleaning and evaluation.
I knew that the tooth behind the one that was pulled was in trouble, as it had cracked while the other one was being pulled. It cracked because it had a ginormous cavity in it that wasn’t visible with the other tooth blocking it. Because it’s a wisdom tooth that came in sideways (and because there is no matching tooth below it), it’s useless and it’s getting pulled next Thursday.
After that, I need a cavity filled on the other side of my mouth. My bottom teeth are all fine, it’s just the top for some reason.
Oh and there’s more, but I’m going to hold off on it for awhile. As of today’s visit, we’re at $600.
Hey, like I said, I’m just one tooth infection away from my goal weight. The soft food diet will be coming back next week.
For the record, I really do like this group of dentists. I just hate the pain in my mouth.
Raw Desserts Class
Robbin and I went to this tonight and I’m excited to share the experience with you. But, it will have to wait until tomorrow, as I am going to be talking to Chef Jennifer about it some more. 
But it was yummy….
And you should be jealous….
OH!! and Robbin asked me how much weight I’ve lost in the last year. I said, not much, but I know I’m losing inches from working out. She said, you look like you’ve dropped about 50 pounds. Woot woot!! Not true, but hey, if it LOOKS that way, I’m okay with it.
Lunch with that Ashley Girl
I had lunch with my favorite personal trainer, Ashley, yesterday. Her last day at Lifetime is the end of this month and I’m going to miss her so much!! She is going to be a stay at home mom to Baby Owen, who is due at the end of July/beginning of August.
I had to miss her shower, so I gave her a present yesterday instead: a gift certificate to my nail salon. Let’s face it, she can’t reach those feet right now. So a pedicure is right up her alley.
Fitness
Because I didn’t specify nitrous oxide when I made my cleaning appointment, I didn’t have it this time, as I was in a room that didn’t have that option. I gripped the chair so hard that my hand went numb. I’m sure that burned some calories.
Food Diary
Ummmm, yeah, I didn’t track today. I can tell you it was a lot of chocolate soymilk, chocolate ice cream and some pizza tonight.
I promise I will get back to tracking!! I have just been busy with the new site. It’s almost ready!!
Blogs
I’m super-far behind and I’m so sorry!!
This Post is Lame
Yeah, I agree. Tomorrow it will be much better, because it will be about the Raw Desserts class.
Oh goodness!! Isn’t it crazy how fast medical bills get so pricey?? If it makes you feel any better (which it probably doesn’t) he’s probably still paying on his student loans
I hope that you start feeling better soon!! Having your mouth in pain is the most uncomfortable thing ever–it makes you feel inhibited. (okay, that’s not the right word, but I can’t think of it. My vocab skillz are zilch at 6 am
)
Unfortunately you are absolutely right and the worst thing is that dentists and doctors in general cover each other in a scandalous way. I had this year som dental jobs and paid three times more than four years ago, for EXACTLY tha same stuff.
