Saturday Morning Java !!!
I get them in my legs after I fall asleep. The pain is so bad. I put heat on it, I walk (if I can), have tried everything. The Doc has me on Requip and Flexeral, helps some but not all the time.
I have been getting them in my legs for years.
Have you talked to your Doc about them and has he given you something that has helped?
Jan from Jenison. Just noticed your really soon upcoming surgery date, and wanted to wish you all the best! ~ I am the proud wife of a Guatemalan, but most people call me Kimberley
Highest Known Weight = 370# / 59.7 bmi @ 5'6"
Current Weight = 168# / 26.4 bmi : fluctuates 5# either way @ 5'7" / more than 90% EWL
Normal BMI (24.9) = 159#: would have to compromise my muscle mass to get here without plastics, so this is not a goal.

I remember the excitement well! Have you started your pre-op diet yet? It seemed very real to me when I started that. I'm sure you already know, you have a great surgeon who is very talented and will take excellent care of you. He was very good to me during my hospital stay, and he wasn't even my surgeon!
Are you having the VSG (your profile says VBG, but I don't think they do that anymore?)?? My friend, Kelly, had that in September with Dr. Foote. She has done very well. She comes around here almost every day, and is really very nice, should you have any questions! She is also a techie person, and could probably tell you how to change the surgeon info, because I just poked around and couldn't figure it out...still haven't figured out all the new things with the website change.

Been up- had to take Mr Bud into the vets for nail trim, ears, and anal gland popping.
I had my coffee early and am gonna run into Chelsea to get some rx's in a few.
WTH is scramps? Do you mean cramps? I have never heard of that so I guess I dont experience it.
On the way home from vets I went around the corner on some country road and there were 24 deer standing in road. So I stopped and they ran across and back and across again. I wish they would look both ways before they cross. Hubby last week had about 6 deer run out in front of him- he stopped and one deer turnred around fast and he just bumped her butt....didnt hurt her or his truck and she took off running. Very scary!!
Stay warm all!!

Just finished breakfast (scram. eggs) and am drinking water.
Getting ready to clean house and start getting everyone ready for the old routine on Monday.
I don't have scramps or cramps, so nothing to add there.
I think I'll take the dog for a walk before all of the freezing rain comes.
See ya!
Yummm, Olive Garden!! Breadsticks drunked in alfredo sauce. OMG, haven't had that in like forever. Tell me, how did I get to be 370#??
Must. Resist. The. Urge. to give into the carbs (for a third week in a row, starting today of course, because yesterday didn't count, and neither did the day before, or the day before that....!). Darn, when does the 1st of the month fall on a Monday again? That is always the key to kicking off a good start.

I have pumpkin spice coffee in my cup with splenda and ff half and half in it... yummmo....
No Scramps/Cramps for me... at least not that I can recall.. LOL... I am sure I would remember though..
Plans for the weekend... Just trying to relax.... We had to make our first trip of 2009 to the ER last night with my son Lucas... He had a sledding accident and needed 3 stitches on his eye lid.... That was enough excitement for me for the weekend!!!
There better be school here on Monday, I have not been watching the news (due to constant cartoons on), so I don't know what the forecast is for Pinckney.... I will have to watch some news tonight I guess....
Have a great day everyone!!!!
Hugs to All,
