Man...this game has only just started and already I'm derailed. I went to the doctor's today and she thinks I have appendicitis. She said absolutely no strenuous exercise no matter what. It was on the tip of my tongue to say "But...but...what about my points?!?!?!" Good thing I got in a hour of exercise this morning :) Anyway, I'm still playing, but for the short term (I hope!!) I can't exercise. This is killing me right now because I am going to St. Croix in March and really wanted to be bathing suit ready by then. Sigh.

Yikes! Hope you're ok -- that can't be fun. Take good care of yourself!

Well she said no strenuous exercise...you could still do some yoga and pilates, light weight training etc right?

Good point about yoga. I think Pilates and even light weight training are too core oriented, so I'll stick to yoga and walking for the time being. Thanks Liz, that makes me feel better. All is not lost.

veerie are you ok?
whats up guys?

the week's almost over....hooray for friday!! boo for no change in the scale YET.

hi guys!
how goes it? im a mess im waiting for my period today or tomm. you know how that goes!

hey lizzz hang in there!! whats up w the rest of you guys? how ya doin?

i haven't had my period in so long that i forgot how that goes lol. not that it is really a good thing but for some reason my body hasn't been working properly. i need to get back on the pill because that makes me regular again

lizz i think we have lots in common...i have pcos and was on it for that and was yanked off it due to suspected possible cause of current urine retention so in the meantime my hormones are cpmpletely____!

yuck sorry to hear that. i haven't been to the regular doctor in ages but when i had my annual pap i mentioned the period concern and they told me it was probably stress. funny, cuz i don't FEEL that stressed

did they test your levels?
its supposed 2 ome today so im 'assuming' it will bc last mo. was my 1st off the bcp and it was only a few days off.

nope never been tested...well actually i had a thyroid test but that was awhile back. like, in high school i think. i really don't go to the doctor much.

your gyn can do a whole hormonal panel....

i just went to planned parenthood so they do the basics. i moved here last year and haven't found a doctor yet.:?:

oh and vee...when i said you could still exercise i didn't mean you should beat me in the points department!! :devil:

im so sorry liz, drs can be hard to find....
well i got my period, so im sure w hormones being _ im sure its what set me off on the big b'
