Fabulous 40's 3/30/04

Hi Ladies...

Looks like we've all been pretty busy these days. Things are going pretty good for me, work still crazy but I am surviving...

Rita - How's it going girl...are you staying on plan? I hope you are doing well and that you feel good considering you stopped taking your meds. Hang in there and stop in when you can.

Diane - I bet you are having the time of your life with the grand kids. I look forward to seeing some new photos when you get back, we miss you!

Tami - How are you sweetie? I sure hope you are doing well. Are you back to work yet or still trying to recover from the surgery? I hope you are doing well, you are always in my thoughts and prayers

! Take care of yourself, I miss you terribly!

Not much really new with me still moving along slowly, but I manage to get a minimum of 3 days at curves, plus I walk no less than 1 mile a day but mostly 2. The food thing, well I just have to get my act together...I am so bad about it. I know what I am doing wrong yet I keep doing it.

Well, I hope you guys get to post soon. I miss our little group. Take care

Many (((((((HUGS))))))) to you all!

HI all! I see everyone is busy! I am hangin in there. I'm having a major cystitis flare up and in alot of pain.

I cant get into a doctor till April 26th. Im very frustrated!!!

And, of course hubby had no idea how painful a bladder infection can be so he is no help! So, Im trying to keep busy to keep my mind off of it.

I started a new eating plan yesterday. I am hoping it will help me. Im going to eat 6 mini meals a day, with lean protein and carbs. Ive gained 5 lbs in the past two weeks

so Ive been pretty down on myself. I am walking everyday and did my pilates yesterday.

I hope everyone is doing well. I'll try and keep in touch. Wishing everyone a great week! Hugs, Rita

5 lbs in 2 weeks, wow, I can only hope to be so lucky. Callista (my baby that wouldn't eat for the past year) is eating so good and Grammy and Grampy are keeping right up with her. We will start back on track Sunday when we get home. I just wanted to say Hi, love ya all!! See ya soon.

HI all. Just checking in. I'm feeling a bit better today. I am trying this new pain med my neurologist gave me. I didn't want to since it is habit forming, but I had to do something. So far so good. I do feel a bit queazy though.

Hopefully once my body gets used to it , it will go away. It's called Ultram. Anyone ever heard of it? So far I am doing great on my new eating plan. Im not counting my carbs, but am having a small amount of carbs, and protein every 2-3 hours to keep my blood sugar level even. I'll let you know what the scale says next week!

Diane- thanks for checking in! Im so happy your having a great time! Yes, you and grampy (hehe) can get back on track when you get home. I know you won't want to leave!

Tami-im glad you checked in too. So your bored home from work huh? Must mean your feeling a little better!

good luck at the Drs. I hope he has some good news for you.

KK- hope your not working to hard. Hope to hear from you soon!

Hugs to all my friends! Rita

I'm home!!!!! We got in around 11:30 last night....I stepped on the scale and was only up 2 lbs!! I know that is water weight because I drank 2 big soda's on the way home and didn't have to stop for bathroom breaks...Poor hubby is up 12...I must be one lucky girl!! I will post more later!!

Sweeter-than-Splenda · 04-04-2004, 06:53 PM

Welcome back home Diane! Wow, you did good only gaining 2 lbs! You will get that off in no time. I'm sure your DH will lose his extra 12 quickly too.

I've been having a bad time with my IC I found a website called IC network for people like me with this bladder disease. It is helpful to know I'm not suffering with this alone. I even found a woman from Las Vegas on the message board and lo and behold she goes to the same Urologist as I do! LOL Small world huh? I think the more knowledge I have on this disease the easier it will be for me to accept it and work with it.

I am doing good on my new plan. I lost 4 lbs. and for that I am happy!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. The weather in LV is perfect today. Sunny and 70's!

My kids will be on spring break all this week, and we are taking a drive up to northern NV for a mini Easter vacation. Should be fun.

Have a great day! Hugs, Rita
