Topic: RE: How do you get your iron?
My iron has always been low, I was anemic before surgery and they warned me it'd be worse after. I have never been able to get my numbers within normal range even now with my Dr having me take 2 multi vites a day and Fergon once a day with OJ to help absorb it. My previous Dr wanted me to take an OTC iron pill 3x a day, but my Dr now says that just is too much.

Okay, Brit...this will be quick and dirty...I've got back-to-back-to-back appointments all day, and week. ugh.

Ditto what you said...I need to go to bed at a decent hour and cut out the crappy snacking. Ditto on the over eating, too. WTH??? We both know better...

Surgery/high: 251.5
Last week: 140.8
Today: 142.0

I blame some of this on unhealthy funeral food...why can't it be healthy? I had too many chips, too many dips, tooooo many glasses of wine, and cake?? What a rookie move. It was bad enough without the cake, too.

Better luck to us this week!

I get so messed-up with a day off- and look it's the afternoon too...

I managed to put back on a pound- but that's okay- I'm right where I should be...

HW 250
LW 123
TW 124

I have to admit to binge eating twice this week so much that if I could have made myself sick I would have.  I had to take a painkiller and an ambien it was so bad.  I do see a pettern though... both were very late at night- like 2-3 am and both were on days I hadn't eaten enough.  Both were on junk foods- although didn't start that way- started with carbs.  So my lesson is- I need to eat throughout the day if I'm hungry or not.  I need to get 8 hours of sleep.  I need to learn to stop myself during late night eating before I even start- cuz I don't have much control then.
How stupid.

OMG...you.must.swipe.it.
The set up is super easy and it is such a blast to play with. We have running competitions between everyone in the household...we all want to be #1! lol. There is nothing better than the Wii Fit game/board...it is amazing.

And the funeral is Sunday(tomorrow)...so it will be an emotional day I'm sure. But, it was her time...she was ready to go. For that knowledge at least, we can all be at peace with her passing.

Suz-
Glad to hear you're on the emotional mend!!!  That's so hard...

I am so jealous about the Wiii.... I am dying to try it!!!   Please keep me posted how it goes.  My mom has one that sits in her basement for when the Gkids come twice a year- am thinking I may need to swipe it...how's the set-up- hard or easy?

Thanks-
Brit

TY for the condolences...we're already on the mend.

As for the Wii Fit...you won't be sorry. I am actually bummed that I haven't used it for a couple of days...I have the cramps from hell and can't bear the thought of moving a single tummy muscle. :o(. But, come Monday...it's on!!!

Hey Suz:  Sorry to hear about your husband Grandmother! I hope you guys are doing ok.  Even when it is expected it is still difficult to deal with.  I am thinking I want to get me a Wii so I can get the Wii Fit, I have so much about it!! Maybe that will be my valentine gift to me! lol

Good Monday Afternoon My January Lovelies!

Late again, but at least I made it! We had a bit of bad, yet expected, news this morning. My husband's grandmother passed early this morning. We have been waiting for this, as they gave her 1-5 days to live eleven days ago. She was 90, so certainly no spring chicken. She had a wonderful life and seemed ready to go, but of course we are all saddened to see her move on. She is in my heart today.

In other news, I can report that I have finally gotten off of my bony butt and used my Wii Fit last night. What a blast! I actually had a great time using it and I can't wait to unlock more yoga positions. I can also report that I still HATE running...that was my least favorite part of the game.

Anyway, my numbers:
Surgery/high: 251.5
Last week: 141.2
Today: 140.8

Make it a great week ladies!
