We were out kind of early yesterday and could still see some on some roof tops and around the base of some of the trees. It was pretty while it lasted. What sucks is that we have this surgery to improve our lives and hopefully not have to struggle with the daily weight issues that we had before WLS.  But, here you are trying to get back down the scale and I'm trying to get back up!  Don't get me wrong, my life is so much better now, but I sure wish I didn't have to think about food morning, noon, night and every minute in between. I always have something in my hand, either food, protein drink or water. I have food in my car to eat while I'm driving (almonds), food stashed at work that's easy to eat between clients, and I don't even like food anymore! So, my friend, here's to us and our struggles. I pray they both improve.

today my plan was protien shakes......well I have managed to catch the stomach virus everyone else has.......what goes in comes out and it aint pretty....with in 40 mins of eating I am doubled over with cramps. i was naseous all weekend but figured I ate too much bad stuff so I was going to start my healthy shakes for a few days and de-carb and so on.....did not figure I was sick feeling due to virus....but my neice has it and my mom.................****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I feel bad, ate a baked potato for lunch and oh my god I am paying for it, I am scared to drink water............ewwwwwwwwwww i need to be euthanized I think................................. huggs and germs tammykins

I hear ya sistah................we try to improve our lives by losing the weight and we tend to encounter other health issues a few years down the road..............sucks. I am sick of thinking about my meals......sick of counting the ounces of water and protien...it is very tedious. I know it must be done. I also know that my not paying attention got me obese in the firts place. I am an obesity survivor and every day is a struggle........I will not sugar coat anything.  I am grateful to have had my surgery and no longer be morbidly obese but I am still obese by the BMI standards. It takes work yes indeed.  Food is stashed everywhere to keep my sugar levels right.......thats no fun. I spend more on vitamins than I do on food. Crazy huh!! Oh well anyhow.....I miss my snow.....guess I got about 6 inches.....my son was playing in it at 10pm friday nite......we are yankees and are used to it......although he should have worn clothes not shorts crocs and a t shirt.....while playing in it....my neighbors think we are crazy....nope just yankees. Ok gotta work for a bit huggs to all

Man, what a string of bad luck!  First it's the chest junk, now it's the stomach thing??? Honey, we gotta get you well! Yeah, I'm one to talk!

....I am slowly feeling better have a good day

  Ok, no more sick days for you for the rest of the year. You've used them all up already!   Here's to healing quickly and staying well.
