Sunday Check IN
Hey Shar, glad to hear everything is going good for you. Still in the casts??
Im feeling great. Very little pain since my scope. I even gained a pound this week! Up to 119 now. Im shooting for 125.
Having a dexascan done on wednesday to look for bone loss. Dr put me on 1500mg of calcium and 1000 units of vit D a day. She's worried about bone loss with the rapid weight loss. Will let you know how that goes.
Everyone have a great week :)

Cindy,
i am so thrilled to hear that you feel well. You had such a hard time of it. Yes, I am still in casts...it's not a lot of fun. My dexascan shows osteopenia. Make sure you take dry Vitamin D...you won't absorb the regular. I am takin 50,000 units three times a week. I was taking it every day and brought my levels up to normal. Will repeat this week to see if 3 times a week is enough.

Happy Sunday!
Just spent the day chillin after a 77 hour work week and this week is going to be about the same. Weight wise, i am still about 162. Trying to loose into the 150's (sounds like a broken record). Hubby got approved for a revision. The date is Dec 28th. It seems his 30 year old staple line has a open place in it. I can only pray mine last 30 years!!! Anyway, he is stoked and so am I. Maybe I can loose a few more pounds as he goes thru his journey. He keeps lots of snacks in the house. Most of them have way too much sugar for me but it is still tempting for me to take a bite or two! The dr found a hernia and he is also going to take out his gallbladder. We are going to close our business for a week and then maybe after a couple of weeks he can return to work light duty!!
If your lurking - let us hear from you! What is going on in your world?
BTW...have I told you lately I HATE COLD WEATHER!!
Have a great week everyone!
Huggs,
Rhonda
