I stop again at the cracker and then off to work. I am feeling much better today.

Giving the apples away was a good thing. I hate to toss food.

Have a great day. Crystal

How do I find out about those? And are they open to anyone?

My group meets once a month for one hour and I think they end just as they star to get good.

BTW Hi nice to meet you.

I DO TOO!! I THOUGHT GIMINEY, WHERE IS EVERYONE? I KNOW THERE HAS TO BE MORE PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE TO GET ACQUAINTED AND BECOME FRIENDS IN OUR LOCAL AREAS. I WOULD LIKE TO GET TO KNOW MORE OF DR. SHIN'S PATIENTS ALSO. I AM PLANNING ON GOING TO MORE SUPPORT MEETINGS AT CAMC.

  Hi   I know how well a chiropactor can make you feel  and it is a good idea after an adjustment not to do a whole lot so the maovement wont immediately be disturbed  so it can get settled in...    I didnt throw the RED candy apples away  I just cannt throw them away   any food  thats a differant story    but I gave them a neighbor kid  well she is 23 but is a child    know what I mean  a very sweet kid...     No you dont ave to compleley give butter up  but  use the fat free kind theres one brand that I use   I cannt believe isnt not butter fat free   it is hard to find here   but when I do I stock up on it....   some of the things I have problems with  so far  I havent found the right fill yet so this may change and remeber everyones stomach is differant  what I can eat  you might not   I have trouble with eggs, bread unless it is toasted, pastas, rice is a BIG one  some chicken   unless it is in a salad  some times hambuger  I can eat a hamburger sandwich but not just a patty   and then some days I can eat something and the next not be able to  and vise versa  it is a fickle thing at times   like they say  you just gotta try.  I really try to stay away from carbs. as I am a diabetic  so they arent any good for me anyway. ohh I can eat candy ice cream   chips with no problems   but they call them slider foods  they just slide on down and dont stay in the pouch.  Marsha  the dietican will explain alot of this to you   and she has a wonderful hand out book she gives to everyone  it tells how many carbs per meal fats  proteins of course  vitamins and all that .         Ok  I am burning up  I dont have the air conditioner on in here   my husband is in the living room with that one  and I am so cheap I will only have one on at a time     so I will go now  do  enjoy the rest of the day. Prayers willa    I also am glad we got to get to know each other   I m more talkative on here than in person  so please dont be offended if I dont talk alot  I wont snub  but just  not very vocal  thats why I become friends with vocal people to make up the difference   I will tell you that trauma some day    it makes sense when you know the story behind it. prayers willa

The excellant attitude comes and goes, but I try to use it when I have it. I had a PCP appointment this am and I made sure she noted it. Then I went to the Crackopracter(I always spell it that way:) He twisted me on the table and wow what a difference. 50% less pain right away. He made me take the rest of the day off. Darn:).

Uhhhh Candy apple. I love the red ones. But did she have to bring three?? Trashing them is the right thing to do.

Yes I am married, no kids (by choice). Hubby just started saying he would like some but wants to wait till 2010 (I would be 36). I think he has no idea what he wants. He thinks kids are something that is supposed to happen.  I will have them if he wants them, I just don't have that clock ticking or anything.

The Nurse Practicioner(sp?) in my office had RNY lost 100 lbs still could loose 50 +- more but says if she stays this wt the surgery was a success. She has been very helpfull and answes a lot of questions. Do you really have to give up butter or anything else totaly? unless it gets stuck.

I have been testing the waters of not drinking when I eat. It will be the hardest I think. Taking small bites and chewing well will be next on the list. I have been limiting my carbinated drinks and I don't think giving them up will be hard. I love crystal light and teas with splenda.

I am glad we have met and have this website to cantact each other. Now stop thinking about the apples in the trash and so will I LOL. Have a good day.
