when it rains it pours!! just got done spending the weekend in the hospital with my mom. called in sick on monday to stay home with my 6 yr old who has been sick and puking, went back to work today, the hubby took her to the doctor, and holy **** she is in the hospital now. severe pnemonia. 106 temp, about 1/2 of her right lung and 1/4 of her left lung. the poor little thing. and it took 4 attempts to get the IV in, damn nurses. she is a brave one tho, she did not cry at all. just asked them to wait till she was ready before they tried each time. now she is in pain tho from the meds losening all of it up her lungs her right side is hurting and she is a daddy's girls right now. so my youngest and i came home to let the dog out, and get a few things to take there. they say at least 2 days. so i will be off work all week. there goes the rest of this years vacation time. o well kids come first. and we'll meet our deductible the insurace after this stay, so should be good for the rest of year there too. it's just been a rough 6 days so far and trying to start my diet yesturday. i stuck to it and am trying today, had bagle for breakfast and roast beef and cheese sub way sub for lunch, don't know if i will get the exercise in yet these next few days, will try to do something.
till later, keep keeping on! i know that is what i have to try and do. can't change any of it just have to deal with it the best we can.......

Hope things start looking up.

I am sorry to hear about your daughter; I hope she feels better soon. Hang in there.....you don't have control over the medical issues that come up with your family, but you do have some control over your eating, so great job trying to stay on top of that during this big mess!

Ooh my! Hope things get better for you and the family.

Sorry to hear you baby is sick. Just hang in there and don't worry so much, it's stressful enough just having your little one in the hospital.

Oh my gosh, I hope she gets better soon. Hang in there!

she is getting better but the doctors want her to stay in the hospital one more night to keep an eye on her. white blood cell count is down but not as low as they want it, she is off the 02, and eating real food agian. but her temp came up a little again. so we will see what tomorrow brings, dont mind her staying, want her better before they send her home so we dont' have to turn around and take her right back.
diet is still going ok, ate a bagel for breakfast and salad for lunch, at home for now and will eat chicken breast and cooked veggies for supper, so under my calories for the day right now, will need to get a snack in before bed

Sorry to hear about your mom and daughter.. Hope your baby girl gets better soon.. Hang in there things will get better soon. "Hugs"

well my baby is home now, back to her silly self for the most part, still need to keep an eye on her for the next few days, but it is good to be home.

i will start my 30ds probably fri or sat and do my level 1 for 10 days, hopefuly not has hard people are saying it is, i give up easy on things i cant' do all they way thru. will keep u updated on it tho

What is 30 days? Is it a detox or a workout thing? I am bored with my workouts.

hope things get better for you and tha fam!

melO: the 30 day shred is what i am trying, been reading about it on here and went out and bought it, it is jillian michaels 30 day shred, and i just did level one, HOLY SH*T!!!!!!!
it is hard i hurt, i even felt a little nausious at the end during the cool down, never felt that before, even took a few 5 sec breaks, and then had to go upstairs shortly after i was done doing it, coming down i had to hang on to th railing, i thought my legs were going to give out.
if i can keep this up for 10 days that's good, but i dont' know about level 2 then, we'll have to see how i feel after 10 days of this one.
i recommend it. dont' know how effective it is yet, but i feel it could some good, you do 3 circuits of 3 min strength, 2 min cardio and 1 min abs, then cool down. tough for me anyway i have not done much for exercise in a couple years, just walking, so this was good.

Glad your little one is better (hope your mom is too). Hang in there on the workouts...the first day is usually the hardest (and sometimes the second day 'cause you're sore ).

If you can hang for 10 days, it'll be a habit...and then level 2 won't seem as bad...

thanks, but i skipped day 2, can barely walk up or down stairs the top of my legs hurt so bad, still today as well, never felt this before and i've done lots of squats, hope i wasnt' doing something wrong, will try to get it in today.

eating is going ok, but yesturday i broke, i don't know i just feel i needed to go back to something i'm used to after all the hospital stays with my mom then my daughter right away, and missing week of work, i needed something i'm used to and that is eating poorly, so supper was spent at mcd's so the girls could play, and i broke, instead of getting the salad i did get a chicken sandwhich meal, i know it does not matter much but i did not super size it like i alway did
i feel bad a bout it, but again that is my problem, i have no one here to stop me from doing it but myself, and i can talk my self into eating like crap pretty easy, and usually can't talk myself out of it......
