    Topic: RE: Good Morning. The last straw
    My Mother like many others. She died of a massive coronary heart attack followed but 2 brutal strokes. We had a few things medically that were different but for the most part I was headed down the same road. She was only 54.

    Topic: RE: Options for pain at TOM
    I use Midol complete, it still has the properties of Midol but is tylenol based, not sure if it would even help but may be worth a try
    Topic: RE: FREEZING
    I like it cold to sleep too. I wish what I drank is how I felt. i am just always cold and the heat does not affect me at all anymore. I can work to my hearts content and NEVER get hot anymore.

    Topic: RE: FREEZING
    Will I ALWAYS be freezing? Yesterday was in the 90's and I was wearing long pants and a sweatshirt all day, I shucked, cooked and froze well over 60 ears of corn OUTSIDE and didnt break a sweat once.
    Today is in the high 80's kids are begging me to go swimming but yet again here I am freezing, is this normal?

    Topic: RE: Prayers appreciated
    Roz,
    The storm is not expected to hit us at all. If anything we are just having rains from regular heat.
    We did flood last night from rains but nothing that would make anyone worry and it is all cleared now. Have a great time while you are here.

    Topic: RE: just for Fun Friday
    1. What is your favorite way to deal with the heat?
    I head outside and jump in the pool for a few minutes. Im mostly working now so I have no clue anymore.


    2. What is your favorite thing to eat when it is hot?

    Watermelon of course :)

    3. How do you deal with cooking in the heat?
    I tend to do more "cold" dishes for the kids and if we cook it is mainly outside. I have even been canning outside on the grill too. Gets so hot in the house.

    Jody, I do believe you are correct on this. I do have a test kit but no strips.
    I think it is odd that I HAVE to "have" my protein drinks to keep me stable. have you ever heard of this?

    Topic: RE: HI GUYS!!!
    Just stopping in to say HI!
    I truthfully have nothing to report except I am even more stressed than I have ever been.
    DD has her senior Prom tomorrow night (keep an eye out on FB for pics)
    DH is gone again (eh no big deal there)
    And the rest is history, the usual everyday stressors.

    I did have a regular Dr appt yesterday and got some very encouraging words from my Primary dr, he said he was proud of me , and frankly, I am too!!!

    Everyone have a great weekend, I am going to do as much as I can in the garden!!!

    Chesapeake VA (right on the coast)
    Had RNY Aug 31,2010 (WOW)
    My nest NSV to date would have to be the ability to maintain what I have lost and not have gained it back immediately. I have been the same weight since Oct/Nov 2011

    Topic: RE: Obesity Help Swimsuit Edition
    Not bad! Looking really good there! I agree with my tankini though, LOVE IT
    Topic: RE: The worst pain ever
    I really hope you are feeling bette, as everyone has said too much pain can be something serious that really needs to be looked at (now the but) but everyone heals at a different rate and everyones pain tolerance is different.
    I personally had a LOT of pain that took a long time to go away. Thought I was a strong one but they proved me differently. I was walking around but never near a treadmill. I slept in the recliner for 2 weeks afterward too. If it gets worse please go in.
    Topic: RE: thanks
     to you!!!! We are in this together and I couldnt have done it with out you and all of them either!

    Topic: RE: April Fool's Day - Sunday Weigh In
    Figured I would continue to post here. Have to be accountable. I am actually up today and have no clue as to why I am...
    122.4
    I tend to bounce from 120-122 average for me but not happy. Gonna work on this
    Topic: RE: HI EVERYONE!!!
    Unfortubately they wont allow me to get my labs redrawn until I go in for my 2 yr.   So i have to go by the labs that I have now. My b12 is amazing in fact they told me to cut back on what I was taking...HAHA NOT! I do not do any iron because it has never waivered. (Wonder if they really are checking it, the numbers are all the same)

    As for protein drinks, I only do my 2 scoop coffee each morning. I still have an aversion to most protein powders so I stick with what I like most.

    I did go to 7-11 and find a Crystal light slushie!!! I got the 64 oz and drank it ALLL. I am so proud of myself LOL.
    Topic: RE: HI EVERYONE!!!

    Didnt eve think that something wasnt in them. I am using the centrum chewables and centrum silver chewables, they are getting harder to find. What would be missing that I can find to get what I need?

    I still only take 1 calcium a day and my labs have never waivered, is this not enough? I want to get back on track.

    Topic: RE: Being thankful for the love and support of others.
     You are a very blessed woman to have a man like that, love and cherish him as long as you possibly can. Many would die to be in your shoes, I also have a loving husband like that and grateful for each and every day we are able to spend together.
