Hi everyone,

Welcome Kittenpants this is a great little corner. So sorry to hear about your stresses and hubby's injury. That has been one of my fears since he's the main breadwinner so to speak.

Hope, wowzers 155 meatballs that must have taken you quite awhile. I haven't been to a pampered chief party in ages, its easy to spend to much.

Heather glad you are still alive!! That is always a good start.

Sassy are you still walking at work?

amarie have fun house sitting.

Feeling yucky today. Not sure what the problem is. Went to the doc's today and he gave me the option of getting off of the wellbutrin, but I'm not sure that is a good idea just yet. I am just so unhappy right now and have no idea why or what to change to get over it. Oh well, just keep plugging along and something will happen I'm sure.
It feels like summer, so that's really nice. Today is DdC's last day at school, she just has one exam on Wed and she's done until Sept. DdB starts her training at A&W on Thurs and DdC has an interview this afternoon. As I said things should be good.

Anyway take care everyone and I hope you have a great week.

Hi Everyone! :wave:

I hope your all doing well!!

Hi all,

I have been so annoyed all day. I've been off my celexa for three days (just couldn't get by the pharmacy) and I'm about to start my period any time now. :eek: Those two things are bad enough but we just had an unusually busy and strange day. After work I met dh at chili's for a drink, where I decided to stick with water, and there was so much noise I couldn't relax. Then he tells me we need to go to the hospital where an aquaintence was having surgery. I have nothing against being supportive but the last thing I wanted to do was go anywhere but home. We just got here around 10:30pm.
I'm exhausted and glad the day is over. [note to self: don't run out of celexa! you never know what the day will bring ;)]

Buddly, if you stop the welbutrin will you start something else? May be worth a shot? You've been down now for quite sometime right? They tried my on celexa since I have some anxiety as well. Have you tried that?

Amarie, good to see you. Hopefully you will have internet access where you will be staying. Are you out for the summer?

Sassy, have you still been walking? I've kinda slacked off this week. :(

Hey there Hope, I sure hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
I'm on celexa as well as the wellbutrin. The wellbutrin wasn't addressing the anxiety. And it sounded like I had the option of just dropping the wellbutrin and not replacing it with anything but I really don't think I can do this completely on my own just yet. I did walk for an hour while DdC was in judo tonight, didn't help as much as I had hoped, but I did get a lot of fresh air, the lilacs were lovely though.
Take care,
K

Hola.

Hope -- I am wishing you a great day today and the rest of the week! Yes I have been walking. On my lunch every night. Sometimes its longer and sometimes its shorter, but I always walk. I figured if it was a "habit" then it is easier to stick with and so far I have been! ;)

Hi Buddly -- I'm on Wellbutrin too. I've been on it for a long time...........Sometimes I wonder if it is really helping because sometimes I just get SO angry and I have no idea why? Maybe I will discuss it with my dr.

:hug:

Hey chickies - I'm doing okay :) Having a love affair with salad at the moment - with slivered almonds, feta cheese, strawberries and lemon-poppyseed dressing - YUM! That makes it easy to stay on plan, I tell ya!! ;) Sometimes I even add grilled chicken... oh, now I want more! :lol3:

I have some surgery booked for 2nd July... kind of scared to tell ya'll, in case you don't approve!

Hope you're all hanging in there. :hug:

Heather :D

Hello.

UGH I feel like a sponge that has been squeezed out multiple multiple times......:p I got to work, ate my dinner, which wasn't the best of choices I'll admit, but still nothing major.......well after I um "got rid of it" all in the bathroom.........:barf: Yay. Soooooo here I am at work, can't go home because my coworker is leaving early and already made the babysitting arrangements, so oh well, I'll live. :lol3:

Heather -- Hey chick. Normally your salad would sound good, but right now food doesn't sound good at all. lol. What kind of surgery are you having?? I hope all goes well!

Big :hug:

Ok Heather, you peaked my curiosity! I'm assuming that since it's something one may or may not approve of it must be cosmetic? If so I say 'you go girl'! Anything that makes you feel better about yourself I'm all for. If it's something else, you and/or your dr must feel it's necessary so you have my support. I wish I could do a few adjustments myself. ;)

My mood was better today even though TOM arrived. Ahh the magic of celexa! I get to sleep in tomorrow too. Can't ask for more than that.

Sassy, sorry you got sick. Hope you feel better. :hug:

Buddly, I'm surprised they just want to remove a med and not add or change one. Strange. Sorry you are having a hard time still. Exercise usually does help.

Where are my chicks? :(

I finally got a workout in today after about a week of nothing. I was doing about 3-4 days a week which I can live with but once a week needs to improve if I'm going to change my health for the better. My eating was pretty bad since TOM brought the usual cravings. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

What's up with everybody else?

Hi Hope!
Congrats on the workout. I went for a 30 min walk with the dog this morning. Figured it was our last trip to the bus until Sept I should make the most of it.
Not much new here.
Take care,
K

Hi chicks! :wave:

I'm really on track again - thank goodness! - and no longer feel guilty about my ticker - I'm almost back at that weight! ;-) Funny the silly games I play with myself - did not moving my ticker make me think I HADN'T gained 30lbs in five weeks??

As for surgery - yes, Hope, I realised that it's now or never, really. The hardest part is trying to wrap my head around the fact I won't ever have children now... weird. But, at 40, getting divorced... it's not very likely. Maybe I'll be able to adopt... I am having a tummy tuck and my boobs lifted and augmented on July 2nd. I'm excited (and scared!) so hat convinces me I am doing it for the right reasons... and yes, those who know me will know I wondered if I was doing it for someone else. A little bit, sure, but that's insanity. :no:

Anyway - how's everyone doing? Lots of needed rain here, nearly done school for the year, not exercising enough! Same old same old - :lol3:

Heather :D

:wave:


Oh Heather, thats exciting, I'm so happy for you !!! whoot :yes: Your beautiful NOW.... and after surgery your going to be glowing b/c your going to feel so good about yourself.. you go girl :hug: Picture please :D

Hi girls.... nothing new.. just feeling soggy from all this rain... depressing to.

Oh well, gotta surf the boards for a few seconds and back to work.

:hug:

.

Ooohh Heather, I'm soo jealous! I would love to have that done! I say good for you! Yes, you should definitely do pictures, if you wouldn't mind that is. :)

Gotta run for now, be back later.

Good for you Heather!! Those are the two surgeries I'd love to have done as well.

Not much new here. Worked today and boy was it a day. Little challenges all over the place!!:lol: Sure hope tomorrow is a little smoother.

Hope everyone has a great Friday and weekend.
Take care all,
K

Aww thanks, girls! :grouphug: I'm nervous, but excited :)

How's everyone today? It's FRIDAY!! :)
