Will check in later tonight when I get home from work. 

Hope everyone has a great day.

Cool Mag.  When was the last time you 'loved' a liquid diet? lol   Hope the hyda scan goes smoothly and your offending gallbladder is removed asap.  Hugs

even the best intentions go astray.  LOL.  i ended up falling behind while at work.

Glad that you were able to get your pills down and keep them down!!!  Hope that you are feeling better soon though.  SO when do u go back to the MD?

By now, you shift will be over half over.  Hope everything is going splendidly for you Fran.  Welcome back to normal life.  Congratulations. 

I had a chance for half a shift of overtime this evening, realized that I was tired after working the last 10 days and some other overtime too.  Declined the additional hours and napped instead.  Feeling so much better after the nap.  Great to dedicate myself to myself today.

Had what would have been called an easy night at work, before surgery.  OMG I feel like a mack truck ran me over.  I am so pooped.  My legs feel like I walked across country.  I think I have a rubdown coming with some peppermint lotion.   I can just feel the tingling...  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I would be in bed right now (1am) if it was not for me needed to get some more protein in.  I had a good start, but didnt take long to fall behind once at work.. LOL  Oh well.  It will get better as I work more and more.

You really should take some time off from the overtime.  Your body needs the rest!

I recall that feeling, superwoman met her krypton at work.  It will get better, your body is doing some major adjusting.  It is hard to get in protein at work, do your best.  Enjoy the peppermint rubdown.  Sleep well Fran.

I have been put on restriction from exercise this weekend from my fiance.  He says I dont have the stamina to work the whole weekend plus exercise.  He's got a point.  But I wanted to do something.  Gonna listen to my body this time.  SUPERWOMAN is on downtime.  Sure hope that batman can keep the city safe!

I ended up getting in more protein than i thought.  I finished my dinner when I came home and the chicken alone gave me 36g of protein.  Think I got in 83 after it was all said and done.  I'm ok with that.  Aiming for more than 70.
