An OB/Gyn doctor living the Paleo lifestyle
I often go back and forth with my motivation level to maintain healthy eating habits. After a while of eating too much junk food, I feel gross and realize I feel better when I am eating healthier. Stress certainly affects things, in that the more stressed I am, the more I tend to sway towards […]
Read More SoupsHappy New Year! Traditionally in Japan, New Year’s Day on January 1 is the biggest holiday, and they take sweet glutinous rice and pound it to make mochi, or rice cakes. Most Americans probably think of the sweet form with the red bean inside. Or the version with ice cream inside, which is definitely not a traditionally […]
Read More Margin of ErrorHappy Thanksgiving! Hope you are all having a restful holiday weekend. I would like to say that I am out of the rut I wrote about in my last post, but life has continued to be stressful.

Read More Good vs. bad foodFunny enough, after my last post in May about my Apple Watch dying, the replacement just died on me. In any case, summer was busy, with W out of school.

Read More PrediabetesYou know you’re getting old when you get a kidney stone. The reality is that even kids can get one, but I think of them as something that generally people over 40 get. Back in May, I had two episodes of really bad abdominal pain. The first episode lasted less than an hour, so I […]
Read More Kidney stoneLife has gotten so busy, and I was surprised when I realized how long it has been since my last post. June was a particularly busy month work wise- I worked a lot of weekends. Now that I have this week off, I can finally breathe. We are doing a lot of home renovations, so […]
Read More Parenting woesI went in this morning for another ultrasound to check my uterine lining, and it was still too thin. They want the lining to be a minimum of 7 mm with what’s called a trilaminar (3 layer) appearance. Otherwise 8 mm or thicker. Mine measured 5.8 mm despite being on estrogen pills to try to […]
