Do I cry or dance?

Ok, I haven't been on the board for a few weeks. I have been experiencing the worst 'vacation' I have ever had. I flew out to SF to visit my sister and friends for ten days. Day 1 - Discover sister has no scale- Withdrawal sets in Day 2-5 Get the worst case of indigestion I have had-- gas/bloats ugh Day 2-6 Fall on ankle have to go to emergency room. Learned I have pulled some tendons. No exercise for a few weeks. On crutches for three days. Day 10 Wake up morning I am supposed to leave with chills and sweats, congestion and fever. Change flight. Day 11-14 Wake up feeling worse. Cancel flight. Lie in bed wishing I was home. Speak to doctor over the phone who tells me not to fly until I see an ENT so I don't perforate an eardrum. Day 15 See ENT. (Incidently, I am the only patient over 8 in the office. Good thing, because the doc looks like he is 12). Told I could go home if I seriously medicate self before flying. While in office, spy scale. Step on scale..... Fully clothed-- am officially overweight! No longer obese! Not a great way to start the new year, (sick as a dog) but at least I hit my next goal-- Sorry I have been out of it for the past 15 days. I'll be back in the swing of things once I get home tomorrow. Happy New Year to everyone. Thanks to everyone on the board for their love and support for the past six months. Andrea

LOLOLOLOL!!! Sounds like one of my vacations! Seriously though, I am SO sorry it turned out so crappy for you, but WOOHOO on the WL!!!! CONGRATS!!! Life is indeed grand, but sometimes the toilet overflows! HUGS Kimberly

You are to funny! I like the toilet overflowing analogy! Andrea

Congrats and Sorry all at once..........I have also been sick this week...all stuffed up and gunk coming out of my nose...weight loss is at yet another stall...all I have to say about that is it is my own fault...I have not drank jus****er since...hmmmm I don't know. My husband and I are going to try and keep each other motivated...our new years resolution. Mandie

Thanks Mandie- Sounds like you feel like I feel. Talk to you soon.

Andrea, Well...that sucks! Hey...that's great! I hate it when I get sick on vacation. It's such a waste of money and time off from work!! Hope you're feelin' better! C Leigh

Andrea~ Sorry your trip out west wasn't the best!! I think the flu has a hold on us here! I to got sick on New Years Eve of all nights! Spent 2 days in bed with chills so violent I thought I would shake right out of bed! But one good thing it did was give me a jump start on wt loss! Lost 5 lbs that 2 days!!! So I would still say you DANCE!!! (it burns more calories then crying!!!!!) Besides, we all look soooooooooo HOT now we all need to be dancing!!! All we need is a reason!!!!! Take care~Grace

Andrea, you forgot to mention that we didn't get to meet! Well I got sick, plus my grandson was born early and I was being pulled every which way by everybody. I'm sorry you had such an awful vacation. Michele
