GOOD MORNING NC

Hi Everyone, How is everyone doing on this rainy day? I hope everyone is well. Let's hear from everyone today!!!!!! The board has been really quiet. Pat

Hello Pat, and everyone I am so gald we are getting some rain today, my lawn is crispy , and the veggies are tired of water hose drinks Meet with my nutritionst last night ( Allyson ) and she was so happy with me YEA!!!! I need to eat more protein but otherwise I had such a great appointment. Also I get to try salad , I have been craving a salad, I promised to chew , chew and chew and try just very small amounts to start , so this weekend I plan to give it a try. I never try new stuff at work , I am so scared it will not agree with me. So far only the crab legs made me sick. Also , I am still doing Curves 5 days a week, for any Gal out there looking for a excerise program , I love Curves. With the hot summer upon us I just can't walk out in the heat, and going to the mall , makes me SHOP instead of walk I want to plan another get together soon for the South East of Charlotte and Union County , please let me know if anyone is interested. Maybe a picnic at a park, something simple . Thanks you All for being my Family Allison

Hi Allison, Would love to get together again. Let me know if I can help!! Pat

Good Morning! I agree with Allison...the rain is great for the grass, flowers and garden!! We had to make an unexpected trip to West Virginia on Monday for a funeral (my DH's grandmother). We drove 6.5 hours up there on Mon. and turned around and drove back on Tuesday. I did great, except when I woke up this am, my back is killing me. Hopefully it will losen up today. I am 9 days post-op and I have my follow up with Dr. V. on Monday. I can't wait until I can start trying real food. I am getting pretty sick of protein shakes! So far I have had no problems at all. I honestly feel as if I haven't even had surgery! I am thankful, but I keep fearing (like others have said) that I am going to be the one this surgery isn't going to work for. I hope you all have a great rainy day! Susan

Hi Susan, It sounds like you are doing great. I know how old the shakes get. Maybe you will be able to advance when you see your Dr. Have a great day!! Pat

Good morning everyone. Hope everyone is enjoying this much needed rain. Thanks to the good Lord for it. Nothing new here on my end in Hickory. I am down 136lbs and loving it. Trying to excersise everyday which is walking and going to Curves. I too agree w/it being too hot some days to walk. I feel like I haven't done enough exercise if I don't walk, but try and remind myself that as long as I am doing something thats all that counts. Hope everyone has a wonderful blessed day. God Bless. Angie

Hi Angie, You are doing wonderful!!!!! I am starting at the YMCA next week and they have a place like curves. I can't wait. So far I have just been walking. You are all right we need the rain so bad. Have a great day!! Pat

Isn't raining yet up here in VA, but it is coming. I am at work, slow day, listening to an audiobook and playing on the puter. I am good. Trying to get hubby ready for his trip down to start his new job soon. Lots to do. Paula

finally got around to posting..better late than never!!! Wow the rain today was much needed but it's something how we went with no rain to flooding..of course due to the storm, but it was something else in my area trees falling, hydroplaning big time, and ponds that weren't there as of yesterday... Hope everyone had a great day today, see ya on the boards tomorrow...
