Bren,if it is hurting Bill to move,tell him to massage himself. That will surely help. I hope you get a good doctors report. I have bacteria in my urine which is why she called in antibiotic for me,almost finish with them.
I am very depressed Brenda,if I went to sleep and did not wake up,I would be fine

Oh, dear, loving Linda........How sad is your last sentence, and how well I understand. There have been days lately when I have felt the same way....and it sucks!! I'm finally on antidepressants and hoping they will kick in soon. Are you talking to anyone about your depression?

You give so much to everyone here, and I can only hope that joy comes roaring back into you life. You so deserve it.

With so much aloha,

Maui Karen

My sweet gracious Karen,one gets tired of the struggle. I would never take my life. I am taking 2 antidepressants. I went back to bed and I feel better,I feel lazy when I have to lay back down.
I know the forces that be are.are  not through with me. I am just so weary sweet friend.

Hello lovely Linda!!!!!!

I am so sorry you are still  feeling sooooo depressed. I wish I had a magic cure for you. We know how it has to just run its course.....hopefully sooner then later.

I do not agree...you not waking up is not an option sweetie!!!

My depression has finally left....not that it can't return with a vengeance!

I think part of my better attitude is because I joined a gym again. I am getting in the pool and exercising. It has helped my thinking greatly. I was feeling so bad about myself. All the sitting around I have done because of my stupid broken hip didn't help at all!! I need to lose these pounds and inches that have crept back...UGH!! I thought I was up about 8 pounds...on their scale it was 10......OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

B-yogurt w/kashi and string cheese
L-salad w/veggies, egg and cheese
S-banana
D-chicken salad and baby carrots

Love you much...gentle hugs....Boo...to you!

Linda.....Your surgery is next Monday....you know I have been praying for you. I will continue to do so.

I didn't hate rehab but I didn't like it. I am a mover and a shaker and me being in that situation was so hard on me. I am just now starting to get along at more my normal speed. Plus the food was totally not good for a bariatric patient. So many carbs and sweets. All the fruit was mostly in a sauce form.Lots of pasta, rice and bread....none of which I eat. Every now and then I could get a couple apples and bananas. The yogurt was full of sugar. I brought my own Boost to have at breakfast. Toward the end I finally got them to bring me some good cheese and cottage cheese. That was the most frustrating part of the stay there...the meals sucked!!!!!!

I wish you the very best. How long will you be staying at rehab??? I left after 2 weeks but then Dwayne was here helping me. Also, my best friend is a physical therapist and she was here a lot of the time too.

I know you and
 I are a like in the fact that we are so darn independent. It is so hard to have to depend on others for every little thing.

I love you much my dear friend.....HUGS...Boo

Howdy everyone,

A busy day yesterday kept me from overeating.  Had attorney appointment and got a parking ticket, then lunch and a walk with Corina. swiped some succulent starts from gardens along the way, then errands and potting up the succulents.  Couldn't sleep last night because I'm worried about the letter the attorney will write to my former employers, attempting to get all 17 years of service instead of the 14 we've already agreed on.  They will be mad at me.

Yesterday I ate protein shake with banana and coffee, fruit/yogurt, scrambled egg/toast, some Chex mix, a bourbon/water, hamburger hash and a little SF pudding.

Keep the faith,  CV Linda

The food dragon will calm back down.
You just keep doing your best.

Betsy,you are doing the right things,and the weight will fall off without your even noticing. Tomatoes are so good for us,that I am not sure there is such a thing as too many.
You sound happy,keep going babydoll!
