ahhhhhhh thursday already???!!!
i'm heading out the the gym in 10 minutes.
this past week while off i've been trying different times of the day to see which one is quietest at the gym. when i first started going at 7pm after work was great! then after the new year all those people and they new years resolutions started. so now its filled. i go to veg i don't want to see others and listen to them talk about what they are or are not eating. and i'm sorry to say this but i do NOT want to see or smell them sweat.
geesh louise people! get some deordorant! use it! ok so i understand people sweat i know hey thats a good thing they are doing sweating up a storm and gettting all nice and fit. but do they have to do it right next to me? a non-sweater? i only sweat when i get a hot flash.
and when they sweat they are usually running at 6.3 miles per hour while i am doing a swift walk at 2.9 but the worset of it is their sweat is flying around along with their arms and legs so my poor glasses get splashed on. sorry for the graphic talk here ladies and gentlement. i'mjust jealous of the sweaters. it makes me lose my thoughts when i'm trying to talk myself into walking up to 3.0 geesh!\
so last night i tried this eplitical thingy. please forgive the spelling. you stand in it and move your legs whiel holding onto these arm thingys. the blond 20 year old size size double Zero who explained it to me said you really get a good work out on it. okkkk dokey
i felt like i was doing the split while walking the mall. blondy said to start slow like 30 minutes i barely did 2. i was on the lowest level. then i went to my true and trusty treadmill. now that i like plus mr smelly sweaty man wasn't anywhere in sight. so what i have found is mr smelly sweaty man doesn't go to the gym at 5pm. so that could work if my job lets me out earlier to go to the gym. hummm not gonna happen.
maybe if i brought one of those pine scented christmas tree car deordantas? hummmmmmmmm
time to walk!

Keep up the work on that elliptical trainer. It burns a ton of calories and is much easier on the knees than a treadmill or stairstepper.
An old cop trick for blocking the smell of dead bodies is to smear a little Vick's Vaporub between your top lip and nose. Don't put it in your nostrils.
OK girl, keep up the good work. I'm proud of you!

Hi Pam, I really appreciate your responding to my post - thanks. You have taken such ownership of your own health, despite the challenges presented in this post-op life - although I don't think we are experiencing the same things. You sound as if your "innards" are in good working order! I know that my stoma is so dilated that nothing stays in the pouch at all - just flushes right through like a mighty toilet! This has created issues for me with exacerbated malabsorption, which is why my stats keep coming back so low, despite I am absolutely religious about taking my vitamins. I put the post out there to see if anyone on our board is experiencing any of these issues. Perhaps I was out of line for asking. You know, I'm reminded of a woman on the Main Board - a particularly nasty person who's sole motivation is to get pre-ops to sign up for the DS surgery - she maligns the RNY at every opportunity - I have her blocked so I don't know how active she has been... anyway, I posted to a pre-op one day (several weeks ago) who was trying to learn about getting support as she began the process of having surgery - she was scared (oh, how I remember those times!) - I posted that a good source of support would be her surgery date Board and explained how it works - to find the month and year that she was going to have her surgery and go to that Board. I said these folks would become family and that I didn't know what I would have done without my "home" Board. Well, this other woman (the militant DSer) posted that the surgery date Boards were useless, with nothing but whining, ignorant people who only cared about themselves and couldn't offer anything in the way of support OR information. That really upset me. We've had this great board, and each other's backs, for more than half a decade! I am so grateful. Maureen
Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.
Reenie you keep on beliveing in us marchers. be thahnkful that the militant isn't one of us!
sometimes people feel so strongly about what they belive in that they forget there are other opinins that are just as important and people who support their opinions just as strongly.
the block will help. i'm not sure if i would have blocked her cuase i would have wanted to read the stuff she'd written if anything it would renforce that you know what you are talking about. as long as you kinow what do you care about what she thinks?
intelligent people reading her posting i'm sure will read right though the tough guy stuff and make their own opionions.
dont let her get the best of you. its not worth the stress from an on line bully.
deep breaths
breath in peace
breath out negativity
AND remember the marchers of 2004 are the BEST!

Judy stop you are not as big ads a cow. you are a wonderful person who want health just as much as the rest of us. an dyu work very hard at it too.
i agree with reenie 200% that it sounds like your innards aren't hooked up as good as they were at first. i think you should look into wha tshe suggested about goign to your doctor an demanding they do the tests needed to find out what is wrong then get it corrected.
its not our fault that this stuff happens. so don't take the blame.
why it happens to some and not to others is a mystery.
i dont' belive that its anyones fault that it does that. cause we are all different. doens't mean i did something right and mine stayed ok cause it could fall aprart tomorrow. wihtout anything happening to make it fall apart.
remember the energy you put into getting the surgery.
\remember the fight you did to get it done.
now pull that energy and fight back and use it to get this issue fixed.
you can do it i know you can!
and yhou've got all of us in your corner fighting the fight right thre with you.
