Topic: BETTER!!!!
The week has definitely gotten better! My car blew up on Monday morning....wasn't sure what we were going to do....was told it would cost a fortune to fix....didn't know if we could get another car loan since we still owed a couple of years on the current car, but thank goodness we were able to get a new car and the payments are only a few dollars more a month! We purchased a silver 2007 Chev Colbat. It's smaller than I am used to (I had a Dodge Stratus), but so far I love it!! Thank you for all of your positive comments!!! Holly

Topic: RE: Neuropathy...
Tiffany, I have been dealing with this issue for several months. Mine is Peripheral Neuropathy. They think it is due to malabsorption of "some unknown" vitamin and/or mineral. Funny thing is my labs have all been perfect and I never miss a supplement. An addition 18 labs have come back 'normal'. What is normal for most is not always normal for us. My dietician gave me a study which discovered this may be happening to 16% of WLS people. Right now they have put me on an addition multi- vitamin combination. On Friday I am scheduled for a Nerve Conduction Study at the request of my neurologist. My surgeon and dietician are considering doing IV Vitamin Infusion on me. Please let me know how you make out. This doesn't hurt so far - but is scary. Annette

Topic: RE: I can stop whining now!
Dawn, fabulous news on the measurements! And the button fly Levis! I felt like such a slow loser too, but it is coming off -- just slower than for some of the others. Keep up the good work and the exercise. You inspired me to get back into the exercise mode in the cold, chilly mornings! Thanks.

Dawn, I get the whine thing...I have to work so damn hard for every pound, I completely relate. Well done with the exercise. It really does make a difference in so many ways. Lisa

Topic: RE: Under the knife...AGAIN!
Thanks much, Susan. The surgery went well and I just got in. Feel pretty good, considering. He found a group of lymph nodes clustered together in the spot where my pain was centered and took them out. He seems to feel that'll fix things. I choose to agree! He sent them to the lab, of course, but I'm not worried. Lisa
