Morning,
I stoped in to see some of my gal pals and was shocked to see cin is recouperating, what the heck happened girlfriend?
I am in the turks and cacois with friends and enjoying walking on the beach and water stuff, the kids and I ate tan and happy but unfortunately we head home this friday
Good to see you guys and looks as though you are all trying to keep on some kind of plan.
be well

Ok guys I need some serious support here I am epileptic and have seizure problems along with headaches that are real bad both front and back of head sometime they caouse me to be in bed.The eating thing is not going well I am still losing not as much as I want though.I am on the weight Watchers plan at home due to not being able to afford to pay for the meetings.I have not been exercising other than a little walking back and forth to the store other than that nothing.Once I go to the newneuroligists I am going to make sure I get something for pain as well.Well that is where I am at as of right now.
Tina WELCOME!! Sorry you are suffering from the seizures and headaches. I had a girlfriend in school that suffered from the same thing. WW is an excellent plan, it looks like from your ticker that you are doing a great job. 17 Lbs is nothing to shake a stick at. I have to give you credit because I know when I get headaches all I want to do is eat, like the food is going to sooth the pain. And yet here you are having such bad pain and losing weight to boot. Regardless of how fast or slow, you are doing it!! Good luck at the new neuroligists.
LindaT, if you haven't figured it out by now, I'm home tootsie
My mom has a major seizure problem as well (she wont tell us exactly what's wrong).. with headaches and all. She lost a lot of weight by walking a TON, she would even sprint in our backyard.. running was too much for her. She said after she started being more active the seizures became less frequent. I hope you can find a way to get more exersize.. and good luck at the doctors.. I go with my mom sometimes because she gets nervous, but she wont let me go in with her. go figure
Good luck again! Just be patient, work at it and the weight will fly off before you know it
Busy weekend working and a few chores........cleaned the vehicle's from top to bottom etc........
Worked 3-11 last night and then stayed until 3 am as the ER was very busy....and then up this morning to babysit dd7's friend......but dd gets to sleep in! ugh
I went to bed early last night and woke up on my own before 5:00 so I got in a 30 minute Walk & Kick tape (that I really like) and got my exercise in ..... finally!
It's crazy busy around here - so I'll make this quick....
Tippy - I hope things are better today! hugs!
Leenie - so sorry that dd is sick! hope she feels better soon!
L - it is so very good to see ya gal! sounds like you are having a nice vacation! enjoy!
Hey Tina - so sorry about the seizures & headaches! You have done awesome on WW! It is a great program! Hope you are having a good day!
Hi everyone: I'm back at work after a 3 day weekend of working on the homestead....(does powerwashing and staining a deck qualify as exercise?) Does chasing a 92 lb. dog through the neighborhood count? I also indulged in some "powershopping" but I don't think this qualifies as exercise either.
However, I seem to be losing......I've tried on some clothes that used to be impossible and again moved my bra strap to the smallest circumference for the size. i bought a cute pair of capri jeans in what I thought was a size 12.....but they are 10's......they almost fit so I'll keep trying and maybe in a couple of weeks I can wear them.
no real appetite in this heat but I did have a frozen margarita yesterday!
Hi all, not much happened this weekend. I shopped, knitted and didn't get to the stained glass. DS came by to watch the NASCAR race with me and stayed all day. He's a little bummed that his friends aren't excited about the job interview he has in 2 weeks. If he gets the job, they don't want him to leave and have made that known. So he's a little down about their reactions. So he stayed all day - got nothing done.
But today is a different story. I plan to work on my sweater for the cruise and then I am going to work on stained glass. I'm going to do laps in the pool this afternoon and I'm eating really good. I lost another pound. Yeah!!!
Cin, glad to hear you're doing better. Those 4 weeks will fly by and then you'll be wondering why you wanted to go back to work.
Leenie, sorry to hear that DD is sick. Being sick in the summer is such a bummer.
Cathy, way to go on the exercise. Five in the morning is way too early for me.
Liz, take a nap whenever you get the chance. That's not enough sleep for anybody.
L, enjoy your trip home. I love to get home from a trip.
Howdeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
It is a cooler and overcast day in Ky. We need rain so much we dont even care if it rains all week! Especially me cause I cannot do much anyway !
TinaMarie.welcome...........if you have WWer questions just ask me.I will be your WW on line Leader...ok? (if you want one)
MMarie.I really love where I work and I really need and want and am thankful for the $$$$$$$........so I really hope to return in 4 weeks if I am up to it!Be-sides I truly miss my memebers and hear they really miss me too!
L.,..............great to see you.where ya been? I am recovering well from a major surgery and expect a full and normal recovery! A few changes "here and there" but nothing I cannot handle!
Marble.cool.keep trying on those 10's....wow that is neat. 12 is good if you ask me!
Cathy... on your exercise.You are so disciplined!
Leens............those little fevers pop up often..does the cousin who stayed overnight have it too?
Liz.I dont know how you manage to do all you do girl!
What was going on with Tippy? I guess I missed something.
Hi LindaT...if you are lurking.join in..we like hearing from you.
Better go before I hit a wrong key & lose all this
thanks for the kind words Cin and vote of confidence...I am trying to stay positive. I've got an entire closet full of size 6s, 8s, and a few 10s (its the cut of the clothes) that I am determined to be wearing in a few months...(or years at the rate I'm going).
I need to get back to my dumbbell weights, I've really slacked off since I started my major cleaning and re-organization projects. I need some extra energy....
Hey Ladies

sigh If i want the gastric bypass I have to relearn how to deal with problems
