Never, ever give up, Stephanie!!!! Take it one day at a time, one hour at a time, one meal at a time, or one bite at a time if that's what it takes. You can always turn to us for support and encouragement. 
I do hope that you and your docs find a way to combat the swelling without meds. I guess being on a super-low sodium diet is difficult in this day and age of processed foods...everything has oodles of sodium added!

Topic: Locked up for MDA
Hello all,
Happy Valentine's Day.
I just wanted to ask anyone who normally donates to the Muscular Dystrophy Association to consider donating to my bail. I am being locked up at an MDA event next Thursday.
I am trying to raise $1600 for MDA. If you would like to help a January 2007 surgery buddy out, check out my MDA page.

Thanks for your support,

Hey Suz....they just say they don't know why I am swelling...when I went to the doctor Tuesday, she just said maybe I am just extra sensitive to sodium...and I am having to go to a vascular doctor to have some test run in a few weeks...she also told me to that I could take half a water pill a day and see if that helps...but I don't know..I dont want to be on a daily prescription med if I dont have to...I do feel good about my work outs....but my eating has still been out of control. So I dont know what its going to take for me to get refocused but I have not given up.

Lori-
You have been through the ringer- I am so sorry you've had to endure such pain and poor medical care. I am glad you've been able to heal- despite the multitude of surgeries required for it.
On another note- I went to your presonal site and saw all your pictures and i especially loved the one of you standing in the single leg of one of your old pants. I know how thin you are and I hate to send a mixed message in case you are fighting something- but in case you're not- you do look truly beautiful. You look very skinny- but you look very pretty too- like a girl who was born very thin and never had a weight problem.
I HAVE to ask- what are you doing to get those arms? Are you lifting a lot? Toning or what? They look great!!!

Lori-
I read a bout a guy who had a fissure post-op and it sounded terrible. I just can't even imagine. I can't believe you put it off- ugh!!!
Hopefully that is behind you- so to speak... :)

He-he...the image of a sloth always makes me crack up. Have you ever seen this blog? The humor isn't for everyone...but it's right up my twisted alley.

Sorry for the "bad words" in the title...but that's what it's called. Anyway, there is a posting about a sloth that just cracks me up.
As for not losing but wanting to exercise or stay active....lift those weights!!!!
Don't worry about too much cardio until you build some muscle weight...then you can eat like crazy and not gain. I'm not trying to lose either, but muscle always looks better than just thin so I keep trying to add yoga, strength exercises, and just plain lifting into my activities.

Ooops! You're right...I transposed the numbers. I'd be in serious trouble if it were 104. 
It's now been edited. 
I sure hope you are able to find out why you keep swelling. Have they ruled out a lymphatic condition?
If you are feeling good about your activity level and your eating...the numbers on the scale really don't mean too much. Staying active and healthy is the most important thing. Besides....all that exercise could be building a lot of fat-burning muscle.

I will continue to make healthful eating decisions and get my work out on and see you next week with a loss. I know I have some fluid build up as my ankles and thighs have that weird feeling in them..kind of all tingly and such. I have an appt tomorrow with my internal meds doctor and will disuss this with her. TTYL
