To my locals!
It was so nice to meet all you ladies (and Sean) on Saturday night. I wish that everyone could've made it, but the company I had was perfect. It was nice to finally put a real face to the names. Everyone was so sweet and welcoming. I plan to post my pictures soon. I got them on the computer, now I just have to resize and post.
Individual shout-outs:
Jane, thank you so much for all the effort you put in to planning this. I appreciate you so much. You're son was adorable and I hope that he and Brenden can get together in the future. Your Mom was really sweet too!
Kelli, my Angel! So glad to see you again. Hopefully we'll be getting together with at least Jessica on the 14th for the Support Group Dinner, etc. Don't work too hard!
Leilani, go to Hallmark.com! I remembered! We must get together again soon!
Wendy, you're such a sweetie. So nice to finally meet you.
Christine, girl, you look so good. I can't believe how you're just melting away. Its very inspirational. Hope you guys didn't boogie too hard.
Erika & Sean, you two looked so cute together. Too bad I didn't get to talk to you too much, but maybe at the next one?????
Alright, I'm done. Next time we need to make sure Jill & the rest get their butts there!!!! Thanks to those that did show and keep me company. My husband loved all those leftovers.
See you soon!

Hey sweetie, we really need to get the kids together again. Despite their age difference they really had a great time together. It was so nice to see Dylans making a friend. He doesn't often get to play with other kids other then the select few in the neighborhood.
We should sll get together again. Maybe lunch sometime. I leave on the 22nd of Dec and I'll be back On the 29th from our Boston/NYC trip. Just let me know. I'll send you my phone number, so you can stay in touch.
If I don't see you then, I hope to see you in Richmond. I know I'll be there at least on Saturday night. It depends on how sick mom is from Chemo. I may have to take Dylan to my aunt's house if she's not well enough to watch him. I hate doing it to her. I really want to go and to be honest, I need the get-a-way for my sanity.
Saturday night? what happened Sat night without me??? Ok so are we difantly doing dinner and the 7:30pm meeting on Thursday of next week?? I will be able to wear the blue sticker finally..Oh I have a ? for you or anyone that could answer this..Does anyone after they eat sometimes or certain foods get this sound like a gurgling sound as you are eating and then it really hurts like in your heart area in your chest like it is coming back up and the whole time you are eating you can hear this noise? Ok so I finally am getting my calcuim straight Blue Bonnet liquid blueberry calcuim from Advanced Nutrition I think that will work for me till I can swallow pills..See ya thursday Amber!!
Hey Jess, we all met up at Joe's Crab Shack in Norfolk for dinner and then some of the girls went dancing at Have A Nice Day Cafe. It was fun! Sorry you couldn't make it. I have no idea about that gurgling sound, but it doesn't sound good. Hopefully someone will answer about it or we'll ask at the meeting. Its on the 14th and I have plans to be there! That liquid calcium works for the most part, I bought some vanilla in the beginning but I couldn't stand the taste for very long. Make smoothies, it totally helps. Just so you know, you won't ever be able to swallow calcium pills dear. I called Missy yesterday and verified. Our bodies won't absorb them, we have to do the chewables for calcium and our multivitamin. Plus the sublingual B-12 or shots. Everything else you can swallow. See you soon!

Where was my invite to joe's and then dancing I didnt see that I would have gone..Everyone I know swallows the calcium pills like the calcuim petites and that is what I was going to do!!! So what chewable Calcuim do you do? I am doing the blueberry liquid calcuim if we can't swallow them then I might just stay on that...I make protein smoothies with water, protein, bannanas and blueberries its yummie and I put my actigal in there (i hate that stuff) I cant wait till I can swallow that at 8 weeks..So then I will plan for the 14th and meet for dinner at same time 5:30pm???
Jane has been posting about the Hampton Roads meeting for quite some time, you probably weren't around because of your time off to recover. I buy the Calcium Citrate Chewable Wafers from VitaCost. They work. I know that everyone is different, but I'm going to follow Dr. Moore's orders, so far whatever he has said has worked for me. I want to absorb as much of the calcium as possible, I don't want osteoporosis. If you can incorporate your liquid with your protein smoothie, that's awesome. I'm also going to buy some more upcal D that stuff doesn't have a taste and its easy to add to my crystal light. I just haven't gotten around to ordering it. I feel ya about the actigal, I had to do that with my psych meds and I eventually caved and cut them into tiny pieces and swallowed them, I just couldn't hack the taste. 8 weeks will come soon enough! I'll be there as close to 5:30 as I can, I'll ask to leave a bit early that day. It takes forever to get over there. I'll put a big post on the main board and hopefully the others will join us!
