Just to Pop in Hello Everyone from Brenda Nutt

Hello Everyone!

I've missed being on the board and catching up with everyone.  Life seems to go at warp speed around here.  My computer time is now my gym time...I bet ya'll can relate to that.  I am spending 1 hour in the gym and 1 hour in a water aerobics class at least 4 and sometimes 5 days a week.  I can not believe how much better I feel from the exercise and the 66 lb loss.  Best of all my health has soooo improved! 

Thank all of you who prayed for Randy, he is still fighting the last of the pnemonia effects.  Poor guy feels so worn out tired, it will take a while for his strength to return.  So far the Lord is still blessing me and I've not even had one symptom.... Maybe the new me has a better immune system!  There is always 'hope' ya know!  We sure hated to miss out on the weekend event for Circle of Friends this past weekend.  I needed to stay with Randy, he's been that sick.

I can't wait for our next meeting on the 22nd.  2 months without a meeting is too long!  I got my Mom through her knee surgery and recovery and so far she is doing wonderful.  I do wish she lived closer to me.

All is well in Harrison, Arkansas at the Nutt house, I do hope this finds everyone doing well here.  I am going to read around a while and catch up on a few, then head to bed for the night.

I'm so thankful for all of you and do wish I had the time to post more often.

Ya'll can always reach me at [email protected]

Oh my goodness girl, your picture is b-e-a UTIFUL! You look so young and healthy. Isnt it amazing what the exercise can do for you and makes you feel like moving more and more everyday.

Sure hoping and praying still for Randy to be able to fight all this off and get strong before winter gets here.

I wont see ya at the next meeting because I will be in Florida, but hopefully will catch you at the next one.

Take care and get on and touch base with us...

OMG!!!!!!
i would of never known you on the streets you LOOK GORGEOUS!!!!!

Brenda,
Ditto to everyone's "you look gorgeous". Are we having fun now??? Hope the exercise and weight loss is as exciting for you as it appears. You are too cute. Prayers for continuing strength for Randy and that his recovery continues totally.
See you next Monday.
Hugs,
Lana

Hey girl you look awesome, very beautyful, and so glad to see you on here stay with us...love ya ....vesta

Hey Y'all,  Oh goodness it was great hearing from so many both here and in my regular e-mail in box!  I've missed everyone!!!!

All the compliments were awesome from those 'in the know'...the regular normal people really have no clue do they?  They try to understand, but everyone here really knows what the score is and the compliments are sweeter!

I am wondering about tummy tucks.  Thinking ahead.  Are there guidelines for insurance to pay for it?  I have regular PPO insurance in addition to Medicare. I'm in hopes when the time comes, that insurnce will pay for it.  But what I'm needing to know is what are insurance requirments for this.  I know cosmetic surgery isn't covered, but there are other ways to get coverage that is true and legal.

You knw how we've seen a Dr. and talked about loosing weight, but it's not documented in our files so we have to go through the 6 month of dr. diet supervision and all that jazz?  Well, if its the same with this tummy tuck surgery, I need to know so I can make sure my symptoms are documented in my doctors file right away.

I was amazed last night.  I'd ordered some size 14 pull on jeans from Lane Bryant for goal pants.  They fit NOW!  Wow!  I'd better get those 12 ordered right away...apparently if I order it, it will fit.......(NOT!) hahahaha  Its so hard not to buy clothes now that Ican buy off the rack- I tell ya, in about 20 more pounds I'm un-leashing the winter clothes shopping elves and my credit card will be smokin this time next year...ha!  (Just joking)  Poor me is sitll wearing a size 28 bathing suit that goes to my knees when wet....I hope the one I have ordered fits me when it arrives (again from LB catalog)  I'm getting pretty desperate for a new one that does not look like a dress! ha

I have a sleep study scheduled Oct 1st to see if I can get off my CPAP machine and here everyone else is getting on put on one...  They are tricky to learn to sleep with, but one mastered they are very habbit forming.  The sleep quality is wonderful.  I'm having zero problems only using my oxygen at night, I don't think I need the CPAP anymore but I need tested because of my lung disease to be sure.  If I was normal healthy, I'd shove it so far back in the closet I'd never see it again! ha

I can not wait until our next meeting, I've only missed one meeting but I feel so out of the loop!  Sug I wish you could be there but shoot, Flordia sounds fun!  I hope everyone else is there, I want to see their progress!!!  I may have grandkids in tow...Randy might keep them or he will stay out in the library with them...but I'm making that meeting! hahaha

Good night all- Gods peace be with you as you slumber,

Brenda Nutt
