  • Hi everyone:

    It seems that no matter what I try, the scale hardly budges. However, the last time I saw the dietitian she said that her fancy scales indicated I had lost body fat, and I comfortably wore some pants yesterday that I wore when I weighed 10 pounds less.

    It's a really slow process, and so is the healing of my knee. But, it's minor, in the scheme of things.

    Vickie wrote on last week's thread that she has some kind of stomach virus or food poisoning so we might not hear from her as she sips her 7 UP.
  • Rhonda, you're our special turtle. You're making a great deal of progress, Cuz. Just keep going. How's your knee?

    Vickie, I hope you're feeling better by now.

    I just got home from hopping around in the pool with my dear friend. It's amazing how we can talk so long and still have stuff to say. It's always been that way with us. Now Curtis and I are readying for lunch. Salad! I'm hungry!

    Nancy, I don't worry about your eating at all. In the big scheme of things, you are doing awesomely.

    My sleeping has been upside down this week. 2 hours sleep last night & just fell asleep on couch and woke up 3 hours later.
    I need to set goals other than just house repair goals. Sleep, exercise ect.

    Decided to remove ticker at bottom and start new one when kev returns to college.
  • First results in are the allergy ones
    And thank goodness they have found out what's wrong. He is allergic to oil seed rape. Our town is surrounded by it, more this year than ever. It has a heavy pollen and what with the light winds it has hovered over the valley and staid. They have started Mark on tabs and given us a filter for by the side of the bed. They seem to think that this is just a one off as the pollen is at an all time high and they are seeing many people coming in with the same symptoms but because of his coronary history, the doctors erred on the side of caution. I can't tell you how relieved we both are. To h.e.l.l with losing weight we are splashing out on a fillet steak each for this evening
    Mark has asked me to thank you for your prayers and good wishes. He has just gone to our local hospice to make a donation as a way of saying ‘thankyou’ to God/Mother nature for keeping him safe.
