Topic: RE: Let's do a roll call to see how everybody is doing
Im here, worked today, had to drive to work in the snow, and kept thinking how warm it was in my bed when I woke up!!!  Between each class, I would go out and look to see if it was still falling.  I didnt want it, certainly dont want it to stick, but I must admit it WAS pretty falling!!!
My eating has been good since the 1st, and I intend to keep it that way.  Havent gone back to exercising yet, but I will do that tomororw.  I worked till 4 and was sposed to be at  a meeting right now, but just couldnt drag back out in the weather.  I may get on the elliptical later, but my voice is failing and I have started coughing in the last little bit.  We will see!!! Have to protect the health, eat healthy and excercise when Im able. 
Hope all have safe and warm week to follow.  I was supposed to come to Little Rock Wednesday for 3 doc appointments, but I'll be rescheduling them due to weather threats!!

Hugs to all,
Rhonda D. the one who has frozen lumps for feet!!

Topic: RE: Let's do a roll call to see how everybody is doing
  I am almost 2 months post-op. For the last 3 weeks I have not lost a single pound. (Well, I gained 3 then lost 3 and am back to square one.) I "dump" my protein shakes and have hit the point where I wonder if I didn't make a huge mistake in going through with this. I tell myself that it will all be worth it... but the last couple weeks have been really hard. Now that holidays are over with I am hoping to start fresh and find things that work for me.

 I really wish there was a support group closer to me. I could really use it use it! Until that happens I try to stay active on here. I am waiting on tax refunds (great things!) and plan on joining the Curves in my area. 

My biggest downfall at the moment is not getting in near enough liquids or proteins. Somedays I wish I had to be accountable to someone other than myself.... but, I'm still here and still trying!!

Hi again,

Frankly, I'm not doing well. I've now gained 10 lbs in the last three months and to say I'm freaking out is an understatement!  I know it's "only 10" pounds, but it feels like 100 and I feel like a failure.

Folks, believe me when I say it's hard to be a leader when you feel like I do. It's why I haven't been around much to offer support. I'm the one needing it, and I don't have any to give. So, please forgive me for being AWOL.

Susan

I am here... It is snowing here(Hot Springs) this morning. Don't think we will get much, but it is so beautiful coming down. Soooooo glad the holidays are over. Need to get my house back in order. Have had a lot of company. Gotta get out today. Gotta take the hubby to the doctor this afternoon.
Everyone have a great Monday.

 Today's a new day.  I have an interview a little later this morning.  (Wish me luck.)  After the interview, I'm going to go to the gym I joined a week ago, but have yet to do anything with.  I do pretty good logging my food until nighttime comes.  

  If you see someone without a smile, give them yours.

Sybul, I wish I had a green thumb or even the desire to plant a garden. I so admire anyone who enjoys that!

It's snowing here! Bet it's nothing compared to what you're getting up where you live.

Be safe and warm. Gonna go catch up on the other posts.

Come out, come out wherever you are!  Everybody please check in and let us know how you are doing.  I have been struggling with the temptations of the holidays.  I'm thankful I made it through.  I am still shy of my goal weight.  I set a goal to get there asap and get back to the basics on my eating.  I even quit logging my food the past few months and I am going to start back.  For me, it makes all the difference in the world.

Ditto to what Susan said about the protein.  Also add some Zinc and Vitamin C after surgery if you already aren't on them.  They will complete the package for healing faster.

Welcome!  I see you have Dr. Roller.  Isn't he and his staff the bomb?  I know the board kind of died for a while.  We're working on it though.  I drifted away and must admit, facebook has me  hooked.  I need to get back on track again though.  You will really like it here.  Everybody is really nice and knowledgeable.  Welcome.
