Wine....I only have a glass or two occasionally....but I have big wine glasses.....pretty much kiss the bottle goodbye with 3 glasses. But those are only 4oz servings right?!?!?!?!? :s

Seriously, THANK YOU for this!! Thinking of this chaos as the new norm makes sense, big eye opener. But you're right, it should be my norm.

On the crockpot comments, how do you prevent destroying your food? I leave the house at 7am to drop the kids and head to work, I get home from my commute and getting kids from daycare by 5/5:30pm. If I leave the crockpot going that long, even if it switches to warm, the food is either mush or dust. What are you doing that…

Hahahahaha, so true!

You guys are all awesome!!! Thanks for the guilt check. FYI: I'm 34. My kids are very helpful and involved in the day to day household chores. Dishwasher, making beds, feeding pets, helping with lunches, etc. And separate meals, I don't do it all the time, but sometimes the kids want chicken fingers, and sometimes my hubs…

I do try to stay active with my kids, but at ages 3 and 6, their activity level is pretty minor. Short strolls, short bike rides, playing at the park. In addition, meal prep....I do really well with breakfast and lunch but supper I feel so guilty eating different meals from my family. I worry its bad that they see me…

I always choose "real" food over chemicals. When I read the ingredients of creamer or fat free the choice is obvious. Real cream is real food, fat free ingredient list contains many things I can't even pronounce and are not on the food guide.

I have spoken with three surgeons, 4 sports medicine physicians and 2 general practitioners. In the end they have a 95% success rate, and if the surgery fails I end up exactly where I am now. So no real loss except for the 9 months expected downtime to heal. In 5 years, I am told I can easily be back to where I was before…

Thank you for all your replies. This is one of the biggest pushes for me to have surgery. I don't want to stop anything. I am only 33 with young kids at home. I also have a higher BMI of 28 and I with my kids getting older I want to move more not less. Skiing and rollerblading are two things I cant do now that I cant stand…

The brace is allowing me to function. My knee feels like it will give out when I move and I have two small kiddos at home I need to keep up with and two dogs to walk. Right now I am waiting for surgery and trying to live....not at the healing portion yet. I've got a great PT lined up and my surgeon put my hubby's leg back…

Packerjohn: I did talk to my doctor and they said there are specific braces designed for meniscus tears with metal side hinges. This is what I bought. It gives me the stability without feeling my knee will give way to the sides if I move wrong which allows me to move more freely.
