Ask them before you go or ask the Doctor, they want a true reading and each Doctor is different. My sleep study place told me No.

Topic: Back from Wausau
Hello Everyone!
It was a blast in Wausau! I have pics... one of our whole group together.. and one w/ me, and Bo and Michael.. one of the attendees... w/ our "fat" pants held up side by side.... one other had left... too bad he didn't get in on the photo! But Bo... he was just having too much fun w/ the dancing!
Bo, I've met him in Irivine, CA. He's a great motivational speaker... and it was great to keep hearing, "I'm so glad you're here Kricket!" He was on the phone when I first approached him.. so I went to do a quick, "I'm here" handshake. He said, "no you don't, you get a hug!"
And everyone there!... LOL... didn't read the name tag! They all thought I was a vendor or someone just setting up to take Photos... until Bo said, "I have a special guest here today..." I looked at him to see who he was going to call up.. and he calls me up! OK, I can stand in front of a crowd and smile... but then Bo says, "tell everyone who you are.." I'm thinking, "you wanted my card on your podium, I thought you were going to do that?" I said, "I don't know what to say." Bo hold the microphone for me.. puts his arm around me and says, there, " can help you... I'm right here... go ahead..." Well, honestly.. once I got going.. I didn't want to stop! And I did let him and everyone else know, "I survived!" I heard the rest of the day, "you know.. I didn't know who you were.. I thought you were just some SKINNY person here to take pics." There's that SKINNY word again.. something I'm STILL not used to... head still tells me, "Skinny?! NOT Kricket!"
And when Bo's talking about his Embarrassing Moments... I wanted to interrupt him w/, yeah... I had a panic attack about losing my panties while doing church collections... and I had worn my son's boxers over my jeans.. then put on my "Fat Jeans"... then told him, let's go play blind darts... he had a fit! That's how he wears them... but....
I'll have to do a collection sometime and maybe Bo can talk about me.. even when I'm NOT there! ;-)
I did a lot of what I do on the site here... just working, getting pics printed... hiding in the "corner" so to speak. But, when the work was done, I was able to get out and take some great dancing pics. I had a great excuse for NOT dancing myself... "I'm still recovering from PS and am still sore"... next time... I don't know what excuse I'll use.. or if I'll just step on out and start "strutting!"
I'll be getting pics to Mike soon... get them online for you all.. first.. I want to catch up on daily duties a little.
The people there were awesome and I do hope to spend time w/ you all again some day! Thank you for making us feel so at home... even if Cody wouldn't go on the dance floor w/ ya! Maybe next time!
Love ya all! - :kiss:

Pamela,
Actually, they do let you take any meds that you usually take. They actually want you to get to sleep so that they can complete the test.
Hope that helps.
Jean

Pamela, I don't think they will allow you to take sleeping pills during the study. That's just a guess.
Topic: sleep study question
I take sleeping pills to get to sleep, will they be permitted on my sleep study?

Pre Op - Letter to my Body.....

OK Body,
We need to have a talk. I will address some of you individually but everyone.... please listen up....
Dear Neck,
I am sure that God only intended on me having one chin, the other 2 are not necessary and will have to find other places to live.
Dear Arms,
I appreciate the fact that you think I should be able to fly. However these bat wings growing under you will never get me off the ground.
Dear Thighs,
I am know that you are close, like family, but do you have to rub together? It is not necessary to touch at all times.
Dear Back,
I am not planning on having a litter, so there really is no reason for you to try and grow breasts back there.
Dear Feet,
I know you are still there because I can walk, I will being seeing more of you soon.
Dear Taste Buds,
Ahhh I have loved you well, but it is time to shake it up a bit. That sweet tooth will just to have to find comfort in things besides chocolate, gummy bears, and ice cream. You may grumble, but we all will be better for it in the long run.
Dear Body,
Sorry it has come to this, but some of you will be smaller soon, and some will be gone altoghter (Fat, this means you). Turns out that to be healthier and live longer some drastic changes are going to be happening soon. I know there will be times that you will fight me, but please remember I am bigger than you and I will win. (Muscles, back me up here... I may not have seen you in a while, but i know you are there.)
Please remember that we are in this together, I only have one of you, and you only have one of me.
~J~

:0) lol Richard you are bad! Well, wish I could say I'm some "normal" size, but I really do have this huge frame so I'm wearing a size 24. I've been soooo stuck at one weight that I (I hate to admit this) joined Weigh****chers and journaling what I eat. I seem to stay between 900 - 1200 calories (which is not enough for my current weight - but we do have this capacity limitation).
I have finally decided I'm not going to like exercise at any weight so I just need to do it (I dont enjoy making my bed either but I do that every day). Dorothy B told me about the Manzano Mesa Multigenerational which is by Cosco near Eubank and Central. You pay $12.50 A YEAR and they have a great exercise room. They ask for a $.50 donation each time you use the room.... geeesh anyone can afford that - and it prevents me from the trauma of going to "good body" Defined Fitness. I know there must be overweight people that go to Defined Fitness, but my eyes dont see them - I just see the great bod's. Hmm.... dont know what all of this has to do with Dr Wolfe coming to our support meeting.... except to show maybe I need to climb on the couch! Jan roflmao
