    Morning Pepper's,
    Well time to face the music and Pepper's, for the last 3 weeks I have been doing nothing, not counting calories, not exercising, not even going to give any excuses. I could come up with a dozen or two. I know when I stepped on the scale on Friday I was not happy it was a gain of 5 pounds. I will wait until this friday to confirm that much.

    Now that I got that out I was so upset I just did not want to check in. I really need to get on track will start over today and really work at it. I scheduled a walk at lunch with one of my clients so will get a good walk in today. and even if it is cold will try to walk again everyday. (so out of shape).

    Well Kelly hope your pain is getting better. I will check back in after lunch and catch up with everyone.

    Check back later.

    morning ladies...yesterday was goin well until my mom insisted we stop and have breakfast after my dr appt....i wanted to go home cuz i was tired, needin pain meds, heavy flo. but i'll comment on my appt first....he touched my upper/arm shoulder area and my hand to make sure i had feeling...the he felt for my pulse. we went over my surgical photos. said there is no sign of arthritis. i told him about my pains and he said i need too push thru it. i don't have to use the foam barrier with my sling anymore, yay! gave me a prescription for motrin 800mg. i go back in 6 wks (4/25). now onto Village Inn. i had a 'make your own' 3 egg omlet / sp? with mushroom and sausage, 3 pancakes, and hashbrowns. a little of each was boxed to take home. on the way out we donated a $ for some fund raiser and received a slice of pie....i chose the chocolate. breakfast was about 9:45, and around 1 ish i ate my pie. within an hour i was sick...nauseated, cramping bowels. totally miserable on the couch til therapy time...which was uncomfortable. she gave me 2 more exercises and commented my rom was better today. i am concerned that i cannot even lift my arm up on my own. no muscle strength at all. none. a supper of mostly water and a few visits to the rr... by bedtime i was back to me again. gosh it ain't worth it. the sugar/pie is what did it. blech. will try hard to do better today.

    cindy...it's ok. we all have weeks like that. i know myself, even months. we share a common battle, you're not alone. you have been extremely busy, so give yourself some slack. just try to take one day at a time and plan as much as you can...and follow thru. commit to it. i know you can do it, and you know it as well. we're here to ride this journey with you! :heart:

    been up since 4:30. still tired but can't sleep. haven't weighed yet, likely gonna be up, after celebrating...

    gonna make a suggestion here....instead of making a new 'topic' each friday, how bout we just keep with the thread until it is full/locked? we are a very small group and rarely get more than 2-3 pages, plus, we would have a longer time period tracked and therefore saved longer. i know i have made comments on threads and tried to research it, and it's gone....not sure how long topics are saved or the data required before something is taken off. hope this is manageable for you all....

    therapy went good. she said i am improving. ds made me a cake, green frosting, shamrock candies and all! had Subway for supper, had 1/2 of my 6". taking lily to vet this am for check on her eye. looking forward to seeing oldest ds return from tx.

    will check in later

    dearest smokin' hot green pepper friends.....so many of us are going thru very extreme, dark times right now....i'm feeling your pains like they were my own. and though this may seem impossible, there is value in our difficulties, and we do come through on the other side. most situations are not permanent. try to stay positive, keep it simple, and fill your life with joy wherever you can find it. hang in there, you're surrounded by love here...i will keep you close at heart and send prayers.:heart:

    God sustains us daily

    Hi all -- since 3/9, my life has been turned upside down. So much has occurred. On 3/14, my primary doctor put me out of work for stress - prescribed anti- anxiety & anti-depressants plus blood pressure medication for my soaring blood pressure.

    Let me add Dave was hospitalized on 3/10 -no idea when he'll be released. He's in a Philadelphia hospital which is an hour drive from the house. And having challenges w/my oldest daughter & drug use.

    It's been tough, very tough for me. My home computer isn't available thus I'm here at the library letting you know I'm managing the best I can.

    I can see your posts to my profile on my email via cell phone - just not able to respond. I can see a FB message via my phone. Those I can respond to. Of course, your text messages & calls mean a great deal to me.

    I'm losing weight - could be I attend as many kickboxing classes as I can during my out of work time. Could be I'm eating less. Some of this weight loss is stress.

    Thinking of you all.... Take care.
    Barb
