hmmmm.....not really sure what your "legal proceedings" will be?  You, yourself  "don't remember" what caused the fall.  You had an EMT check you out and you refused treatment telling him you were "alright".  If in fact it was soooo bad that you were unable to walk without "pain", then why didn't you go seek medical attention right away?  And just a little side note for you on bruising, a bruise is blood that pools at the sight of an injury caused from little tiny broken blood vessels that happen whenever there is some sort of trauma to any given area (whether the trauma minor or major).  When the blood pools to any given extremity, given some time, with gravity the blood moves down making your "bruise" move down as well.

I truly hope that your not injured.  But I also don't believe you have any legal case for this fall.

 Yes, eat more! Your body is in starvation mode, especially since you've started exercising. It's holding on to every little calorie it can to fuel your activities.

Congrats on the weight loss so far!

I think if you would have went to the doc either that day or the next but not a week later and did you notify the Bradley Center that you hurt yourself on their property? Just my 2 cents

It's only been three weeks since my surgery,  I of last week I have lost 22 pounds which is great.  But today when  I went to weigh in I didn't lost anything. Not one ounce,  the reason I don't understand this is I started walking  at least four days last week and I went swimming one day.  Beside all the other house work i did.  I am following the diet and I know probably not eating enough because I always feel little headed and tired.

Thanks, Robin! It's great to hear from you! I don't think I come across as someone who thinks really highly of herself, because I am my own biggest critic! I feel better about myself and the things I accomplish, but they are purely personal and I think I have a little right to be happy for myself.  Anyway, his "truth serum" hurt. I'm just waiting in fear and apprehension for the next time I see him again.  Thanks for your hugs!

Sorry folks, but I need to vent, since I am all cried out. I just returned from a local bar, where I stopped in to see my husband, since I haven't seen him much today. I ordered a cranberry juice and started talking with my hubby. My former boss' husband was sitting next to the hubby on the other side and was clearly drunk, going into past military experiences and cadence, etc. when he got up and stood in front of me, looking me in the chest, wanting me to talk to him. I took his shoulders, moved him aside and said I'm talking to Mark, just a minute. He got pissed off, sat down, and said to another guy "I remember when she was fat and ugly! Now she walks around like'I'm so pretty'  I'm so skinny' "  I said to him that I just want to finish my conversation with Mark and I'll be right there. He blew a gasket, saying stuff much meaner than that. I got so mad I wanted to leave, but was convinced to stay. Mark told him repeatedly to shut up and he kept it up, wanting to pick a fight. I went to the bathroom and cried. His wife, my good friend, came and picked him up.  I am so angry, sad and beside myself right now!  I guess I just need to learn to walk away.  Anyway, just venting and feeling a bit better now.  Thanks!
