Happy Taco Tuesday!

I know it's not original but it's a great quote from a great guy, right? Just getting started with my day...gonna be another hot one today here in MI. I'm gonna try to get my steps in early today. Walking yesterday was frickin miserable between 1-2PM. Nothing much else planned but a doctors appointment this morning and work. AND trying to drink more water. What's everyone got going?

Good morning! Now I want a chicken soft taco from Taco Bell..... It's gonna be hot here today too. I should get out there and walk (notice I say should because I already know I'm not going to!).....but the heat makes me look like a Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon with all the water I'm retaining. I'm trying to get a protein drink down right now....then I'll start on the water. I'm determined to lose SOMETHING by the official DDD weigh in! Have a good one!

Protein and water...awesome! You know you are gonna be down at least couple if you make sure to get those in! Have a great day!

hi see-ster.. i wonder if it's gonna be as HOTT here as it is there.. when you getting results back from all your tests... ??

Actually the appointment was for Jay. He was having a facet block done on his back and he can't drive home after the anethesthia from the procedure. This is diagnostic test to see if a rhizotomy (which deadens the nerve endings with a needle and an electrode) will help with the pain in his back. He is scheduled to have the rhizotomy done on his neck in two weeks. We are really hoping that this will help with the pain in those areas.

sorry Mel.. but MY post here was actually to Chris.. I was wondering about the heart monitor she wore last week... but I'm REALLY GLAD that you told me about Jay.. I hope that his test comes back with the results he wants... please.. keep me(us) posted.. he will be in my thoughts.. is he laying down resting now give him some sugar from me and Daniel..

sorry...sometimes I don't follow the threads too well. My bad. Thanks for your thoughts...yes it has been a tough road with the neck and back pain. He is doing everything he can in hopes that something will work to reduce the amount of pain he lives with daily. We are hopeful that this might work but we know that most likely won't eliminate the pain. I sometimes can't even begin to imagine what it is like for him to be in chronic pain. The meds he takes sometimes work but more often only work for a short time or not at all so it is very frustrating. I will DEFINITELY give him some sugar when I get home from the both of you!

yes it is hard to imagine.. especially a back pain.. sometimes (over many years) I get one in my hip.. not sure why. But I know when it comes it has me in tears with just the knawing constant hurt. Also, I can sympathize since my mom suffers with fibromyalgia.. retired early.. and on disa due to her chronic pain. She went for a long time to different doctors trying to find the cuz of hers.. and that was the final diagnosis. She takes pain killers too.. but it only eliminates it for a short time.. or just enough to take her mind off of it. Hugssss

Morning! I wi**** were hott here! They've got the air in our building turned down to Polar. Sheeee****hink they're just doing it to see some nips on all us ladies! I went to the PCP on Friday and he said the echo was fine. I should hear back today about the holter monitor. But while I was there, he ordered a head CT because I have still been having headaches and dizzy spells. He said that concerned him since the back of my head hit the pavement when I did my not-so-graceful swoon the other week. So I should get the results from that today also. (I'm afraid they're going to tell me the results of the head CT show that I don't have a brain afterall!!)

Morning Love yes.. it was a great quote from a very real and great guy Okay.. have to get my morning coffee now.. for some reason I didn't get to bed until REAL LATE..so.. I have to drink me coffee and work!!
