Thursday...Good morning!

Good morning everyone! I hope you all were able to get a good night's rest. I woke up about 5:30...but I had fell asleep around 8 last night. I was one tired girl. I did my 'norm' this morning....go potty and then weigh. Yeah, I know. Many people are dead set against weighing every day. I do, but I don't get hung up on that couple pound fluctuation. I know that is normal for me and I'm cool with it. Anyway, yesterday, I was 164. Today I was 160! I'm going to wait a few days to be sure it wasn't just a fluctuation before I change my ticker but I thought that was WAY cool! That would put me less than 10 lb away from being a 'normal' BMI!!! Totally unbelieveable! 154 lb would put me in the 'normal' range. I go to see Dr. Gupta this afternoon. I'm a little anxious to find out when & how she plans to close up the hole in my tummy. I don't want to be awake for it...but then again, surgeries are kinda scary for me now. Maybe she can put me in la-la land with the same drugs for an endo, numb me up & start sewing...then if I wake up, I won't feel the stitching anyway. Oh..I also found a lump in my leg at the incision line for the thigh lift in my right leg (blood clot was in my left leg & right lung). I'm going to show her, but I would bet I'll have to show Dr. Bergman. And again, really don't want a surgery to correct it either. Hopefully, it's just scar tissue that will break down. I'll let you all know what happens. Time to get in some toast...You all have a terrific day! Sherri

Hi everyone,  Just a quick note before I leave to help with the grand-babies,& then going to Carmel to get Penny's kids after school and visit till she gets home tonight. I have been so busy but miss my daily contact with you all. I am going away with a bunch of gals from church next Mon. till Thurs. to Nashville Tenn. I am so excited & really need this getaway!!!! The babies are growing, becoming more vocal and alittle more active. I tried to post photos several times, but my hubby put them in the computer wrong, so I will have to try again later. Congrats Sherri & Janene on the weight losses!!!Isn't it wonderful to see those scales move??!!! Sherri- keep an eye on that area on your leg- don't want any more problems to arise for you!!! I hope you get some positive news today and continue to feel better & stronger!Love ya!!! Gotta go- have a great day whatever you are doing! (((hugs))) Ellen

Congrats on the scale moving Sherri and Janene.

Also hope you get nothing but good news at your appointment Sherri.

Lachelle, How ya feeling girl?? Ellen, it's nice to see you post. :) Keep enjoying them grandbabies :)

Not much new here except my cheapy walmart scale broke LOL. I don't know whats up with it. It's calibrated properly and all that fun stuff and it's saying that I weigh about 40 lbs LESS then what I did on Monday soo I know it's not true LOL. I have been in and out of ketosis the past few days I've had that nasty taste in my mouth again but it's great!! Oh yea hubby lost 2 lbs soo now I have 5 lbs to catch up with him, soo now we're challenging each other. This is soo great on so many levels because it finally has gotten him paying attention to what hes eating and I'm hoping he  will be able to get to a healthier weight along with me!! How awesome.

I mentioned it before but I have to say it again, if any of you get the chance the book The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel is awesome awesome. I LOVE it so far but it can be soo hard to follow. I find myself re reading the chapters, before the group discussions that my friends and I have. Its just great.
