Hello darlin!!

It's actually been HOT the last couple of days, don't like it because in the morning when I commute to work I'm FREEZING and then when I leave I'm boiling, but I guess that is when layers come in handly!!

Kudos on losing again.  I have no help in the D department because everything costs money, but just for now get outside as much as possible.

 hi there again,
well i miss california weather , here in tn its raining and were suppose to be getting like 25 degree weather this coming saturday that is a bit to cold for my california bones,lolol.. but yea realy it is . i have lost weight but i gained back a lot of the weight now im wondering if my tool is still going to work for me after all i put my body in after the surgery,but im trying to eat healthy but its hard especially when im bipolar, i go on eating benges and i mean massive. but i want to stop that, its just hard. thats why im reconnecting to this site again. now that i have access to the internet. so thank you again for writing . it means the world .

Yeah I LOVE LA and our weather, but it does confuse me.  It's like 100 degrees today, but like 50 yesterday morning...oh well what can I do.

About your surgery just focus on eating your protein etc.  I can't imagine the difficulty in that while being bipolar but all you can do is what you can do ya know!!

Glad you have access talk to you soon!

as for the Vita D if you can't get the Rx it not a every day thing you only have to take it 1 pill every week for twelve weeks it is 50,000 iu  of Vita D as the everyday vita D is only 1000 iu so I think you should get the Rx

hi there  thank you , i just got off the phone with my dr . and she said that the only thing that will help me is the rx, so i have to find a way to get it. i have to take it for 12 weeks like you said. so i  better get that i dont know what it does with out it.
im sure not anything good.
how are you doing by the way. i so miss california , i cant wait to come back.

have a great day and thank you again

rebecca

I'm doing great now I just got my date for surgery.  after you finish the Rx start taking vita d supplement a long with your other vita's to keep your levels up to pair.  also you need to get out in the sun with out any sun block for about 30 minutes a day

I had the same issues as you along with my iron was also low.

I hope thing get better for you and it has been nice out here a few hot day .

I know how you feel I drive all over the states and don't miss the snow and the cold

thank you ,, congratulations on your surgery date, where are you having your surgery at , i had mine in 2006 at ucla . i dont regret having it but i do regret what i put my self throu right afterwards with not eating and drinking for fear of gaining the weight back and i started to eat and stuff vs goiin back in the hospital with a feeding tube and now i have gained the weight back not all but a big portion of it and trying to lose it . its not easy at all. keep in touch please and let me know how you are after your surgery ok.

takecare

I'm have mine done in San Diego, Ca at Scripps Mercy Hospital

yes I have those fears also but I have a good support group?

Do you have a support group you can go too?  Remember we are hear for you the best way to do this is to talk with others likes us it is hard to do it on your own we all need help all we have to do is ask for it


take care too
