~~~~~~~Evening Update~~~~~~~~
I'm not sure about this Borage Oil. I am getting welts on my chest and neck. I think I better stop the borage oil for now, don't add any magnesium, wait a week and see if the welts are gone. If they go away then it's the borage oil. If it doesn't then it may be fleas, even though I haven't seen a flea and the cats don't have fleas.
I'm watching the finale of LOST tonight!

Hi everyone,
My kid is home sick again today. She isn't deathly sick, just a cold and aches. So she is missing her last track meet.
I am going to get my haircut today. Same style as last time. She only has time for wash/cut -- not blowdry.
I was trying to not drink any diet coke for a week. That's a pain. I really REALLY miss it. Last night I drank the last one in the house. So, I'll try again today. I did give up caffeine for the most part, except sometimes when you're out it's hard to find caffeine free diet, believe it or not. I went to a convenience store with a hundred drinks and they didn't have caffeine free diet coke, diet sprite, diet gingerale, or any other diet caffeine-free drink. Can you believe it?
I'm still getting these welts on my arms and legs, but I'm not sold that they are an allergic reaction to borage oil. I think my couch as fleas. Well, don't get all grossed out. I've never seen a flea and my cats definitely DON'T have fleas. I took 2 cats to the vet yesterday and she confirmed no fleas. But what the heck else could it be? I think if I was allergic to borage oil I'd have alot more welts all over the place. So anyway, I got some flea stuff at the vets - $17. The only thing I can do after that is not take the borage oil for a week and see if it goes away. But I went camping all weekend and I didn't get any new welts so that's why I don't think it's the oil. It could be stress.
I don't know what's going on with my weight. I haven't been eating badly, I don't think. Yesterday I ate 3 eggs w/ peppers, mushrooms; tuna w/ salad, cucumber, lettuce, 2 TBSP garlic/parm dressing; 2 eggs w/ 2 slices ham and sprinkle parmesan; 2 slices crispbread (3g carb / 3g fiber each). Too much salt still? I didn't exercise yesterday. I drank 3 Liters water (96 oz). Beats me...
Maybe more salads w/ chicken?
OK got to go! Hugs everyone!
