I'm BACK:) Have a lot to catch up on
My computer has been down a while but i am finally back. I have so much to catch up on with all of you and I MISSED YOU :)
I have been down also, i have been having a lot of work done on the house and was moving furniture like i always so, but managed to rupture 2 discs, and one is putting pressure on the nerves so i have this terrible pain shooting down my right leg when I move it.. Am going for steriod shots but they are not helping. I really hope I do not need surgery but cannot stay in this type of pain..
My losing is still slow, but good new, consistent. I also have just about quit losing my hair now, i was really afraid there for awhile. I am now down 34 before surgery, and a total of 113 1/2 since the pre liquid diet.. The amazing thing is my clothing sizes.. size tight 32 to size 16/18 wal mart cotton pants and size 22 shirts.. I am just so happy to be so much healthier.
My daughter said it all when she told me she was happy we had such a good summer and she had never seen me do so much with her.. :) We went to Florida for 2 weeks.. we went to Branson, We went to Mississippi for a short trip but we just had FUN... we are not a family that can afford vacations, this was a good year and a Blessed one all the way around.
I have to go catch up on the boards now.. just wanted to say HI

Lost 34 lbs before surgery
Cindy welcome back you have been missed daily girl. you are doing really well on the weight loss. that is amazing, dont you feel so much better and happier? take care of the back it doesnt necessarily mean that you have to have back surgery for ruptured discs , i have 4 of them , two in my upper back and two in the lower back....painful yes sometimes. but most of what is hurting is the tightened muscles not the disc themselves. the pinched nerve hurts i know. go to a good pain clinic not your reg doct for the shots or what ever they suggest....they have some good treatments that dont involve a knife.....a tens machine may be the ticket or shots put right into where it is injured...guided by ultra sound....try everything before surgery or heavy drugs.....
take care and your back will thank you ....

Hi Cindy,
Welcome back!!! You have done so well with your weight loss!! WOW size 16/18 that's awesome!!! Sorry to hear about your back---that's the ONE thing that is just about unbearable with the pain. I hope you can get some relief. Are you doing the epidural steroid injections in your back? Do they help?
