Hello everyone

I had more dizziness yesterday but this time it happened before my workout.  So I am at a loss as to what it could be.  I added the protein drink and I eat 3 apple slices and peanut butter before my workout.  A friend of mine at work has a blood pressure cuff and we are going to check my BP if I get dizzy again (some people think my BP is going low).  I am starting to think it has nothing to do with BP or what I'm eating.  I am thinking it's just plain vertigo...an inner ear disturbance. 

I lost another 2 lbs!!!  Yeah me!!!  I am now only 9 lbs away from 199!!!  I can't believe I am going to be 199 and before the wedding...possibly.  That was my goal!!! 

Aha...Friday.  I will be relaxing this weekend.  The only have to run one errand.  I have to return two tops from Old Navy.  They are too big.  Other than that and of course my normal house cleaning...that's all I've got going today.

Well I better get going.  Have a great day.  Bye

Good morning,

Went to see Dr Kane last night.  My wound should just finished healing up all on its own:)  I still have to change the dressings and use the silver, but at least he won't have to cut it open again!!!!  He already is talking about the next surgery to clean up the scar.......and the tummy tuck.  I saw the pictures from a tummy tuck and that looks painful!  I still have 60 more pounds to go before that happens and of course insurance approval before I have to worry about it!

Rob is getting flown out to LA next week for an interview.  So that offer might be coming.  Still have to figure out logistics and that. 

I'm so excited.  Yesterday I got on a pair of jeans that were a size 16.  Not a 16W, just a 16!  Whoo hoo!  I also found a pair of dress pants for work at Macy's for $13!  What a deal!

Tonight I might drag the husband to see Something Borrowed.  I liked the book so I'm hoping the movie is ok.  My experience is always that I like the book a lot better.  I pick up my boys in the morning tomorrow and then Mother's Day.  Should be a busy weekend!

Hope you all have a good day-sun is shining here!

Good morning Crystal and the rest of Illinois!

Crystal, it could be Reactive Hypoglycemia, which I hear many WLS patients have problems with.  Otherwise, the low blood pressure or vertigo.  You might have to visit the doc to find out for sure.

I am working most of the day then home to get ready for Olivia's party tomorrow.  I am setting up canopies in case the weather does not cooperate and am going to hang white Christmas lights inside, along with these cool battery operated LED chinese lanterns that I got at Dollar Tree yesterday.  Very festive!

I have to make her cake and the pasta salad tonight, then up early in the AM to get flowers for Prom so I can make the corsage and boutinnere.

I have no plans for Mother's Day....I alwyas seem to share it with one of the "little" kids.

Everyone have a splendid day!

 

Tell someone that you love them!

 Afternoon Everyone!

I am being a little lazy today.  I slept for almost 12 hours last night.  I have been so tired since surgery.  I know they say that major surgery wipes you out and I believe it.  I am ready for a nap after being up for only 2 hours!  I know one of my pain meds does that to me and I have identified which one but that has not stopped me from taking it because I am enjoying not being in pain. Sigh.

Crystal, I think you may need to break down and go to the doctor to get to the bottom of your dizziness.  Your body is trying to tell you something and if you dont listen, it could get worse.  

Dawn, it sounds like a busy weekend for you.  The tents sound like they will be pretty.  I hope the party turns out good.

Jules, I wish your hubby luck on his job interview but I have to admit I do not like the idea of you moving to California.  

For me today, I am continuing to sort and throw away things here at home.  I have put this off long enough and it is time to get organized and clutter free.  I figure that I have the time so I am going to make the best use of it,  

Have a great day!

Nancy,

Its funny, while I was home I took a lot of naps and cleaned out the house too!  I will admit the 2.5 months at home seemed long at the time, but looking back it flew by!
