Sorry I have been AWOL for a few days. I have been pretty busy with school, and I'm STILL tired. Boy, am I getting tired of being tired. I figure I should give the reduced exercise a chance to take effect before I try to find out if there is any other culprit. I think I am feeling 'better', but not fully awake yet. Mind you, I'm usually REALLY tired at the end of a working week, so maybe this is just normal. The weekend should be a good indication of whether things are working or not.
Oh... I got a call from the doctor's surgery today and I have to go back in for another punch biopsy. YUCK!! Did I mention that I really don't like those things? I asked if I should be worried about anything and the lady said that no, the doctor just needs to get a bigger sample. BIGGER??? Does that mean more pain? I felt some of the last procedure, so I am NOT looking forward to this one. I am going in on Monday and I think I will ask if I can get the anesthetic earlier, so it has time to 'sink in'. I know that when I go to the dentist, he has to give me the injections, then I sit in the waiting room for close to an hour, while the anesthetic takes affect. I'll have to see if that can be done. I just really hope that it isn't anything to worry about. I am thinking that they just don't want to 'clear' me 100% unless they have enough of a sample. Oh well, these things usually happen to me, so I shouldn't be surprised.
Just a couple of quick messages before I head off to bed. I'll write more over the weekend.
Kayley - I wish the Curves interview had been a little more productive. And you 'go for it' about telling people how much weight you have lost! You deserve to be congratulated for your efforts. I certainly take every opportunity I can to let people know what I have done. I even carry my 'before and after' photos with me to show them when they ask.
Brenda - I have to join the group who keep reading it as a CRAP machine. Shows where our minds are huh? I hope that you see great results from using it. It seems as though you are noticing something already, so hopefully things will just keep getting better.
Ammi - It make me smile SO much to see how happy you are now. It is frustrating to know that the meds could have been creating more problems than they were 'curing', but at least things seem to be on the right track now. You are doing SO well, and I can just picture the smile on your face daily.
Misti - You must be getting really excited about the cruise - it is SO close now. I am sure it will be wonderful and I look forward to reading all about it and hopefully seeing some photos. I'm not sure if you've said where you are going. I may have missed it. I've never been on a cruise as I get terribly seasick and I am worried that it would be a waste of money for me as I would spend all my time in my room being sick. Hubby is the same, so we could BOTH be hopeless on a cruise.
Crock - Sorry that your day wasn't that great, with the weather AND the dentist visit. I HATE dentists! I am hopeless about keeping up regular visits, and then I complain when I have work to do because I have left it too long. Hopeless huh? Great to hear that you are keeping OP. Not a bad effort seeing as your life is pretty hectic at the moment.
Sue Marie - Good luck with the weigh in!! Fingers crossed... and anything else crossed that could help... legs, eyes??? What is a 3 station gym? I'm figuring that there are 3 different places to work out at, but I can't imagine what they would be... weights... situps, etc... not sure what else.
Maria Lucia - I hope that your ex hasn't been causing you too much grief and you have just been having too much fun to post recently. I would love to hear that you have had some success with finding a new job, so you can distance yourself from your ex.
Well, I know I have missed lots of people, but sleep awaits. I hope you are all doing really well and I hope we hear from you soon.
Take care,
Zelma
