Congrats on your new date.  I hope all goes well and you are able to have the surgery.

Went to the Dr. in Concord. And I am not crazy. I can't eat sugar. He said with the type of bypass I had there is no way I can ever eat sugar. And I throwup so much because I have a stricture. And I have hyper thyroidism (SP) I can't spell it. So I go to the hospital in Concord next Tuesday. It took almost 6 years but good things come to those who wait.  I AM SO HAPPY! Not about being sick but it is not in my head. And I can be fixed. WHOOP WHOOP.............  : )

Good morning everyone! I got back from a long vacation last week. So glad to be back home and in my own bed, home, routine, etc!! I'm back looking for part time weekend work. I thought I had a 'sure thing' and it turns out it wasn't as sure as I thought. Anyways, everything happens for a reason and I'm looking for work again. Put in my application at two places last Friday and I have a good feeling about it. Just with they would call me for a interview already!

Gained 7 pounds on vacation. As of yesterday I'd lost 6. Getting back into the gym workout routine. Wi**** wasn't so hot in the mornings so I could walk again with the baby. Got in a great walk yesterday but too hot the rest of the week. Yesterday I signed up for a 1 mile Fun Run/walk! I can't believe I did something like that! I would have been too embarrassed to walk in public like that in the past.

I got the gastro Dr. in Concord today. My prime Dr. don't really think that I dump. She wants to see if dumping is in my head. In my little town they don't do gastric bypass so we don't have any doctors that know that much about it. She don't understand why I can't eat sugar. That's what she thinks is in my head. She thinks that I just don't want the calories. I don't but I really can't eat sugar. I can't even do sweet tea and I am from NC. You know how we love us some sweet tea. When I left her office I just have had that feeling that I am to far gone and what is the use of putting myself through all this stuff again. 1 Dr. in Charlotte said my bypass was a mess my intestents (SP) was rerouted all wrong. Another in Charlotte said nothing about it was right. Then one in Albemarle said the tip of my gall bladder was left in. And all they do is put me in the hospital on TPN fluids for a while then home. So I will see what this doctor has to say today. He suppose to be real good. Dr. Rhodes. This is the last one I am going to. If he tells me all is good. Then I know it is in my head and part of my anorexia. Sorry had to vent this morning. Guess I'm scared. My body is eating it's heart muscle so I got to do something now!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a good day. Wish me luck....

HI all,

Looking forward to the first Durham support group meeting tonight.  I am hoping we can be a unique and exciting group.  I am already working on a great speaker for a future meeting. 

I was hoping we could get our stuff this weekend.  I'm not sure now.  I have to wait until I hear back from the bank as to how fast they can do a money transfer.  I am also a bit concerned about covering bills and groceries if we do this move our stuff this weekend. We can be patient a little longer.

What's on your agenda???
