    Kel, the only action item I got from my doc was to make an appt with a rheumatologist to maybe figure out what this is. At least he referred me to the best rheumatology group he knows. I made an appt for next Thursday 5/14....that was the earliest one.

    geeze, i guess at least you have a direction to go in. better than nothing :( i hope they figure something out for you soon. i'm keeping my fingers crossed :)

    lots of hugs :)

    Thanks, well at least it's not something immediately awful, nothing's exploding or poisoned or a lot of the other crazy stuff I was thinking. :p:smiley:

    Good morning. Want to try a yoga session off a DVD from the library: Mayo Clinic Wellness Solutions for Fibromyalgia...looks very relaxing. Going to keep it out for a while. :)
    I have my drawing and painting class this morning, and a chiropractor appt this afternoon. Looks like another beautiful day outside, hope to find some time to be out there.
    Enjoy the day.

    The yoga looked like some positions to relax the nerves in your back and neck....I'll give them a try. I know I need that. :)
    Have a good night.

    Good morning. Off to zumba this morning. I'm sure it will be a less exuberant zumba for me. oh well.
    Looks like it will be a beautiful day.

    Hey Kel...hope the dentist was good. :)
    I bought some flowers to put out in pots in front of my porch. They're pretty...purple. :)
    Other than that, been lazing around. Kind of tired today. Will try to get stuff done tomorrow.
    Have a good night.

    dentist wasn't horrible, did end up finding another cavity while they were drilling so that kinda sucks but hey. the recline position makes my back twitchy so been fighting that most of the night :) tomorrow will be better :smiley:

    flowers sound pretty :) you'll have to take pictures for us at some point :)

    have a great evening!

    Good morning
    Kel...well, better to get the cavity fixed than let it get worse. Sorry about the twitchy back...do you use ice? or heat? Hope it feels better this morning.
    Haven't played much with getting pictures on here. I need to do some cleaning this morning while the weather is yucky (gray and misty). So, maybe later unless I get distracted by something else. :wink:
    Happy Saturday.

    Hi Vix
    Did You recently say that The house is still under warranty?

    FWIW You can use the resize function in the Windows paint program before uploading if You run Windows on Your computer.

    It also has a easy to use crop feature if needed.

    Nice looking flowers :)

    Have a Good Weekend

    Kel, Elena, Lynmar, Penny, Redwulf, anyone else interested in moving over from the NS group to here. Just started this thread, will see if it works. :D

    I'd be interested in posting here. If I don't find a good support group, I can't stay on plan.

    lol but they're very pretty :)

    yup cavities all gone, back feels a lil better today. just the normal morning aches and pains which hopefully will go away as the day goes on :) scale went in the wrong direction so not sure if last week was a fluke with it going so low or if the pain and donating blood are making it goofy. i know i didn't gain 4 pounds in one week though lol.

    ah well, just going to focus on staying on plan and watch closer when we eat out this sunday with the kidlet :)

    the tropical storm is slowly moving its way in today/tomorrow so cloudy and breezey here... perfect day for me ;) lol. probly going to go do some shopping to get me out of the house and away from food :smiley:

    happy Saturday :)

    Hi all. Welcome Amy....glad to have you with us. :)
    Kel, glad you're feeling better. I go out shopping too, just to get away from the house and food. I think pain, not sleeping, etc can affect your weight. Body tends to try to fix itself by holding on to fluid. Stay on track, try not to get too much sodium eating out, and all should be well.
    Roger, we had a one year warranty which is now over. They came and fixed a lot of little things. Of course I saw a bunch of other little things since then, but basically everything is sound. The builder was really pretty responsive the first year. Sent contractors to fix any problems we had. Now we're on our own with it.
    Happy Saturday, everyone.

    Hi Kel
    11:30PM and the weekend has been OK so far. It is getting foggy out again. That makes two nights in a row.
    I got my Grocery Shopping done and am good for 4 or 5 days at least before I even need to think about getting more Vegetables, PowerFuels & SmartCarbs. I use UHT Milk and that keeps on the counter until opened. The next one I open will be used over three days. Cereal as the Bananas get really ripe, and the Pancake mix flavored with artificial sweetener and Vanilla or Maple extract. Unless I decide to make two pancake mixes in one day. One for Breakfast and one for a PF + SC snack.

    Have a Good Sunday

    Hi Vix
    Isn't it amazing how something new can still have to be fixed under warranty :) It sounds Like You had a good builder, from what I have heard some of them try to ignore warranty work.

    Have a Good Sunday Too

    Roger, we did have a good builder. I know some of them are awful and won't fix anything.
    Most of the fixes were minor, and the contractors that came back to fix things were excellent.

    Hi
    The UHT milk I buy comes in little 8 fl. oz. cartons so I don't have to worry about using it up quick. I just wrok my meals so I use it in three days or so. I use 2Ounces in the pancake mix, a little water and a little Vanilla or Maple extract to make up the rest. Sometimes I use part of a water flavoring packet in the mix instead. That makes it pretty good and a different taste too.

    Have a Good Weekend

    Thanks Kel, you too.
    I use Almond milk too. It seems to last a really long time. Sometimes I use it to make shakes, so then I use it up faster. I'm mostly glad it's so low in calories and high in calcium.
    Had a nice afternoon at my daughter and son-in-law's house. My son and his GF were there along with lots of my Sil's family. It was good to catch up with everyone.
    I'm pretty tired. i was up early this morning.
    Have a good night. :)

    Hi
    It was sunny out, warm and Humid too. Now it is looking darker out the window with clouds moving in.
    I broke down and put the AC in the bedroom window too.

    Cheers

    Alternating between sunny and cloudy here...humid, yuck. Was inspired to buy a little dress to run around in just because it will be cooler for me. I'm not good with heat. Also repotted my hanging basket. I had reused the liner from last year and it was falling apart. I put the new one in and my purple petunias, along with the red petunias my daughter gave me yesterday, so it's pretty cheerful looking. :)

    Lynmar! Yay! You found us. So glad you're here. Maybe they'll leave it up for a while so the rest can find us.
    I checked this morning, NS is still out there, you can edit, but can't make a new post. I'm done. I like our new home.
    Have a skinny day, everyone. :smile:

    Hi E! I knew who you were last night but was so frustrated *finally* figuring out how to get here and set up that I just wrote that short note and zonked out. I'm so very, very glad we still can keep up with each other. I think of you (all) every day even when I don't make it in.
    I was so surprised, shocked, upset, ... when I went in last night and heard about the boards closing. It was like someone took a knife to my heart. I was going to renew my lunch/snack choice but switched instead to just a la carte for 3 months - the shortest time. I was taking two months to go through the foods as it was so no big change. I wonder how NS is going to do now. In my very humble opinion the discussion boards were a very essential part of the program.
    Take care!
