Hi Kay, I know what you mean. I am struggling also. I was in two car accidents in 6 months. I am gained 15 lbs back and it is killing me. I am trying to get back on track . I go everyday for PT. but it is sure not a strong work out. I had to have shoulder surgery. So you hang in there it will come, that is what I keep hoping for. Just don't let it go any higher.. You look great keep working. Joyce

I am glad that you are back on track. I am there to. My best goes with you. I like you miss the comaradere that this board has had for so long. I just hope that it is because everyone is building wonderful lives. I like you love each of my Jauary 06 family. Hazel

it is a thin dime shaped patch that you put behind your earlobe and wear for 24 hours, once a week. i get them at www.b12patch.com I did not realize how fuzzy my head was until I took the first one, within 2 hours I felt amazing, I had clarity of thought and my energy was through the roof. In search of an even greater feeling, I wore it for more than 24 hours and then applied a second one within the same week - and got a bad case of the shakes. My dr said no more than once a week or you can over stimulate yourself - like drinking way too much caffeine. Free shipping if you buy a 3 month supply and they have a maintainence program so they automatically ship every 3 months. I highly recommend! ~Tiffany

Glad to see things are going well with you isn't a flat tummy awesome........ HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND TORI

Hi Kay I had surgery January 30, 2006 and just went through a extended tummy tuck and public lift to get ride of the extra fat down there.....It is really nice being able to actually see your feet and no hanging skin blocking the view. I went with a private doctor since both of my insurances refused stating it wasn't necessary or life threatening. I actually through a company on the web called "Choice Medical" I am really happy I went with them. They help you find a certified doctor in your area. You find out in a few minutes how much the cost is and how much your payments will be. I had to pay for the recovery hospital separate which ran me $800 the first night and $600 the second night. About $12,000 for the procedure, doctor, nurse, meds, all pre and post visits. Oh the fitted girdle to wear afterwards was a extra $75.00. And scar cream was $60.00/ Good luck with your decision and surgery..... P.S. You might want to have a family member or friend stay with you about a week. It is really hard to move and those drainage tubes. I actually thought the gastric bypass was easier to go though. But I would go through it again. It was all worth it.... Take care one of your past secretpals...... Suzan
