I have had numbness before. just relax if you can. i have found the more i stress about it the worse it gets then the more i stress about it, and so on and so forth. I would just recommend seeing your dr on the 8th. if it gets worse or changes by all means go to the ER (if insurance allows) and force an earlier visit with…

I take Gilenya. love it! i haven't had a relapse for nearly 2 years. There is a co-pay assistance program available. (at least there was when i started it). i know its scary how much these med's cost. I had a nasty reaction to avonex. holy cow. my husband couldn't breath next to because my head hurt so bad. i will hope the…

no such thing as a stupid question. I might be wrong but i thought a new relapse was defined by "having systems that last more then 2 days, and don't change". if i were you, i would just call the neuro, and find out for sure. good luck.

chocolate and peanut butter cherrios. mix them together its like but not really a reeses peanut butter cup. mmmm and pretty good for you compared.

that is so absolutely excuse my french "KICK *kitten*!" I love it, everything about it. NEVER give up absolutely not. you are killer and my hero. I am soo serious and impressed with what you have accomplished. my gosh compete in an IRONMAN are you freaking serious. okay enough idol worship but really you are awesome!!

I usually have 2 cups of coffee with cream, hit the gym for about 45 minutes of some type of exercise. to work at 730 and make my oatmeal, eat it around 800. then my food schedule starts about every two hours. now having said that. if i didn't eat my oatmeal at 8 i could and have gone on just my coffee till lunch. but then…

I think you might be the exception. hahaha you did make me laugh though.

Jumping rope was so much fun in elementary school. Then I went and had 4 babies and turned forty. I can't jump rope with an actual rope. I always (tmi alert) pee a little. BUT I can pretend jump rope but don't get me giggling. :wink: :ohwell:

I am 41 y/o mother of 4. first delivery was a C section, i mention that because i have no tummy muscles. I started my weight loss journey at 222. I currently weigh 147 (as of this morning) I find that I am able to "easily" maintain 150. If i want to work at it I can get to 145. I was actually thinking the other day if my…

All the time cold. I wear a hoodie darn near everyday. and you are right it has been warm for winter here in Iowa. i have a blanket at work that I have to cover with sometimes. and at home I always wear a blanket.

5'8" 145 normally wear a size 6 but i have a pair of 4's that if i talk nice too i can get my butt into.

is that you in the picure???? if yes, i need to ask the question WHY???

gotta BUMP this just so I can see how this will end. Feeling the need for a little baseball tonight myself. :wink: :love:

no no no. i have gone 2 years with out a relapse. i DO NOT want to have to start shots again. I know i am being over dramatic, but this would really stink. i hope your doc is just being overly cautious.

jillian is tuff. hers i think is more of a cardio yoga. i like yoga that stretches and strengthens the mucsels but also relaxes me. jillian is not a relaxing person. hahaha....

I am so sorry. keep YOUR spirts up. this is for HMonsterX n

I also have MS diagnosis in 1995. been on copaxon, (daily shot), rebif (weekly shot), avonex(every othere day shot) now i am taking gilennia. ITS A PILL! and praise God I have not had a relapse in over a year almost a year and a half. I have relapsing remitting MS. started with numbness on my left side from the top of my…

I just today came across this great popcorn debate. I don't know why the NI has to be so difficult to understand. I did notice on the popcorn I eat there is teeny tiny print with a teeny tiny * next to it that reads *amount in unpopped popcorn. As popped 1 cup provides 0.5g fat, 0g satureated fat, 0g trans fat, 48mg…

good morning. love this time of year in Iowa nice crisp air. then all the dust will start to fly when harvest starts up. but still beautiful. I am near Cedar Rapids.

Well, I too have done weight watchers, I started with the at work program and the old points plan (momentum). Was very successful lost almost 75 lbs. While weight watchers has its negatives I find it quite motivating. The new plan is different and confusing when you first start it. Fruit and veggies are NOT FREE. they are…

sounds like you have it on % which would be just about right. mine is set on % and when i first turn it on i am about 37.

chop up a banana and add some almonds. yum....

that made me laugh. i feel that way sometimes too "why am i doing this. I DON'T LIKE TO RUN." it hurts and i can't breath. but when i do it, it is a sense of accoumplishment.

DIDTO did the same thing yesterday with a co-worker of mine. and she jumped in too. we aren't selfish we are just junkies and want to get everyone hooked. :laugh:

HELLO!!! eastern iowa here.

I read this somewhere i have no idea where. but the quote was "it takes calories to burn calories".

You can scream, yell, swear, shout, cry, whimper, grunt, bleed, puke and pass out. JUST DON'T QUIT! hmmm.... does that sound familiar? honey i know how you feel. I have done the same thing. i had to change my way of thinking from i have to lose 15 lbs! to smaller "bites" meaning 2lbs here and keep it off. you can do it!

one more thing about using the search engine. if you don't see it there. gee i don't know GOOGLE IT! its amazing all the stuff you can find out there.

you took the words right out of my head! big hug and kiss. how many calories did you burn on that one??? :wink: :laugh: :love:
