Good morning Eileen and everyone.....

Not much happening in my little corner of the world. I am feeling a little less down today so that is a good thing. It sure has been a rough week so far.

Today I get my blood draws done. I will see my bariatric doctor on the 27th to see how I am doing.I don't think he will be very happy with me this time.I am not happy with the weight gain....6 pounds feels like 26 to me!!!

The temps have warmed up....today it is supposed to reach 90....woooohoooooo!!!!! I love it !!!!

Have a beautiful and peaceful day everyone.

Prayers being said for those in need.

Love and hugs to all.....connie d

I know what you mean about the weight gain, Connie. I've been stressed out about these 10 pounds I can't seem to shake, although my clothes still fit OK. I'm just not happy being at the weight I'm at. My bariatric PA was still happy with my progress and told me not to worry about it. But I do not want to regain any weight. I don't want to go back to where i was.

I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm really depressed lately, too ... the power outage and the loss of the food and having to spend more money than I have on food again really bummed me out. I'm glad I'm getting that "mental health day" next week. If I didn't have it, I'd explode (and my boss knows how that goes with me).

Good Morning, OFF.

Quick check in to say HOWDY! 

Was wondering if anyone had heard from Maui Karen?  I don't think the storm was anything more than a bunch of rain and wind but I worry about her.  At least in Galveston I can drive out of the danger zone - I have no clue what they do in the middle of the Pacific ocean except hunker down and ride it out!

Hope everyone has a fabulous FRIDAY-EVE!!!  and an even better weekend.

Haven't been on here in a couple days.....did ya miss me?  NOT

Had some serious issues with not sleeping for two days in a row....also discontinued the neurotin and learned I could have had a seizure by not weaning off of it gradually.....well, live and learn and feel really lucky.
Anyway got six good hours of sleep last nite - amazing!

So making up hours at work today and a little trip to Kroger for my yogurt and rest, rest, rest.   Foot Doc says toes are looking better - that's a good thing and today I actually have on tie shoes and yes, I tied them myself!

Have a good Thursday,
PatR

Pat, I found out that Kroger in LaPorte is still open and I am going there sometime when I get the time to get the Carb Master yogurt. It is going to take me about a half hour to get there but worth the trip from what I hear. Thanks for the thumbs up about it.

Of course we missed you, Pat!

Yeah, you have to be careful going off drugs like neurontin. When I was considering going off Topamax (because it was so expensive), I read up on its side effects. One of the things it said was DO NOT just quit this drug because doing so could cause seizures (it was originally an anti-seizure med, as is neurontin). So that scared me (I take topamax for migraine prevention), and I stayed on it. Then it went generic, and the price went down from $80 copay to $9.59 or something like that. It's now up to $10.59.

I know what you mean about the hot weather ... I don't like it either but I just run the air (for me and the cats ... the poor babies and all that fur, especially long-haired Nettie).

I don't know, Judy, about refinancing your car, but it's your decision. I don't think I'd do it, though. Not really a good move.
