Baylor Mom

Happy Birthday Chris. You look awesome. Hope your day is great.

Hey where is everyone? Did school start? I don't know anything new but I thought maybe one of you would know something exciting. Oh well I am around if anyone wants to reveal what is going on with them. I am at a stand still and am fixing to go back on my weight loss medication on MOnday so I will have more energy and not be so hungry. Well anyone else want to talk please come back. It has been awhile since anyone has posted. Come back everyone. PLEASE LOve you guys and I hope you all are doing great. Hugs

Hey guys!! I haven't been exercising but I have been working hard. I have been helping my mom with her house. She is getting it repainted and I help her put back up the curtains and other stuff. For the past couple of days I have been sore (in my legs) and dead dog tired by the time I get home. I would just come home and take some pain medicine and gone to bed for a couple of hours. My hubby had to get a Mylogram today and he has to stay down for 24 hours so I have been getting things for him. He might have to have surgery again but if he needs it he needs it. I just wish he was out of pain. I will start exercising soon I promise. We are going to do some repainting and remolding on out house too. It needs it and we are going to have a grandbaby in Feb. and we need a place that is decent so the baby can come and visit. LOng story. I guess I better go. I have been sooooo hungry today. I hope I won't eat too much. Talk to you guys later. Hugs

Well guys here is the update. I called the company that makes my meter that I use to take my bllod sugar and she told me that the old meter that I was using to compare with the new one is out of date so it should have been lower. Bummer. But she did tell me that the strips that I am using might be bad so she mailed me some new one and low and behold my sugar levels are lower. She is also going to send me a new meter to replace that old one so I should have current readings from now on. My doctor told me today that my numbers are not bad enough to worry about yet and hopefully we can get them lower with diet and exercise (which I haven't done any yet). But I have been helping my mom get her house fixed up and have been working hard helping her. I have been really sore at the end of the day so I figured I am getting some kind of exercise. I am going to start using the bike soon. She did tell me that I need to eat real food and not protein bars and fruit juice. I hope that I can do that. I don't handle real food very well but I need to try so I can lose weight so I am going to try. Well gotta go for now. I write later. Love you all. Hugs

Hey guys guess what I found out the other day. My hubby and I were talking about my blood sugars. You see back in March my sugars were the best it has ever been. Last month I got another test (not fasting) and it was as high as it has ever been. So hubby and I were thinking of anything different I did in those months that could have brought it up. We finally remembered that I got a new meter around that time. So I found my old meter and low and behold my sugars are good on that machine. So all this time I think it was my meter that has been reading high and not me. I am going to the doctor on Wed. and I plan on taking both of the meters and getting them checked out. I hope that is the reason my sugars are up and not something that I am doing. I will let you all know when I find out. I hope all of you are doing well and ready for a new week. I haven't exercised yet but I will tomorrow when things get back to normal. I will check in later. LOve you all. HUgs

Okay okay I am convinced that I must exercise. SO as of tomorrow I will get on the bike and start exercising. Maybe that will help with my blood sugars as well. I want to lose some weight. I will let you all know how it goes. I sure ddo need the accountability for my exercising so I will report in tomorrow night. Thanks for motivating me.

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't been around but this site keeps changing my password and I have to go back and get another one and then re log in. What a hassle. I am here now though. I am not losing but not gaining either. I am having problems with my blood sugars and I am trying a new medication for it. It hasn't worked yet. I am going back to my GP new week so maybe she can give me somthing that will work better. Other than that I have been fine. Hi Sherri. I haven't heard from you in awhile. I am glad that you are losing again. Maybe I should get on my bike and ride it. I want to lose 10 pounds. It is hard to believe that you are in 16's and weigh 213. I weigh around 205 and I am just getting into 22's. I guess everybody's body frame is different. I wish I could wear 16's. Someday I will. I am excited about your new grandbaby coming. I am going to be a grandma too for the first time. The baby is due in Feb. and I can hardly wait. Everytime I go to the store I buy it something. By the time it gets here I will have lots of stuff to give her. I will let ya'll know when we find out the sex of the baby. I did just recently buy a summer wardrobe for the summer in smaller sizes. I even went down a cup size in my bra. Weird but now I am a B. I am still having a hard time finding a bra that fits good but I am still searching. I have been ordering my clothes on line and then when theyncome I have to send them back because they are to big. I think I know my sizes now though. THis is going to be a busy year for us. We are going to do some painting (or have it done) and reorganizing of our house before the baby comes so we can have a place for them to visit. I am starting to gothrough boxes in storage so I can know where things are. SO I need to get a good nights rst so I can get to it tomorrow. I promise I won't be a stranger and visit and write more often. Love you all. Hugs

Hey guys I found you. The computer likes to kick me off and I have a hard time getting back. I am bookmarking this site so that won't happen again. Well as far as how I am doing, I am doing better. I ate some real veggies today. I have been eating some dried fruit even though it has some sugar in them they are better than no fruit which I can't eem to get down. I am still eating 2 Protein bars a day but now I have added some fruit and now veggies. I hope the scales shows a difference soon. I am basically weighing in at the same weight. No loss but no gain either. I have the most wonderful news in the world. I found out this past Sat. that my babygirl (26 years old) is going to have a baby. I am sooooo excited I can't stand it. I am so giddy it is driving my hubby and mom crazy. The baby is due in Feb. so she is 7 weeks pregnant. I have been telling everybody I see but mostly I know them but some I don't. Well I will probably wear you all out soon enough. You all sound like you are doing good. I am going to try harder because I have been having a problem with my blood sugar levels. I might have to take more medicine for it. I can't seem to control it with what I eat. I don't have much else to share right now but I am not going to lose this site again and I am going to try to post as often as I can. I hope you all have a great week and keep up the weight loss. My anniversary for my surgery is in two days. I have only lost 45 pounds but hey it is better than nothing. Talk to you all later. Love you all. Hugs

Hey guys I need your help. I eat two Protein bars a day plus mainly 100 calories Snacks and fudcycles. I need help. I need to eat food. When I eat food I get sick. What are some easy to fix stuff that you guys eat? I need some suggestions. PLEASE I dont think that it is very healthy for me just to eat Protein Bars and junk. I had to stop my appetite suppressant because it raised my blood sugar levels. It was getting to the point of not working very well anymore anyway. Please guys help me out and tell me some of the things you eat? Thanks, you guys are the best friends no wait the only friends I have. I love you all. Hugs How are you doing Sherri? Email me.

Hey guys I am still around. The stupid computer kicked me out again. It was good to catch up with all of you. I am finally losing some weight again. Yipee!! I have several things that I think that I am doing that is making the difference. First of all I am now taking an appetite suppresant and I am drinking lemonade out the wazoo. That is the only thing that I am doing different. Not much exercise yet but we got our pool all ready for this weekend and it has rained all the time. Sherri - I am soooo sorry for all of your problems. If you want to talk just email me. I am not one for divorce but if he is really doing stuff with her then that is unforgiveable. Let's talk. Email me. Mary - I had the same thing today and my daddy has been gone for three years now. It does get a little better each year so hang in there. I had my daughter come up for my first father's day without daddy. It always helps to have others around. You are in my prayers. Karlik - you look great. Keep it up!! Ruthie - sorry to hear about your problems. You might try an appetite suppressant. It's working for me. I never get hungry. Well not that much. Way to go to not giving up. Let us know if we can do anything to help you out. Stephanie - I hope you are doing good. Let us know how you are when you can. Miss you. To all of the rest of you - keep it up and don't give up. I love you all and I promise I will be around more often. I missed you all very much. I sam not going to get kicked off again. Talk to you all later.

I think that if I went shopping at a store I would just have to buy something. Especially in a smaller size. I went to a few stores and bought a few things but I really raked in shopping on line. My hubby is still in shock and definitely put a stop to it for now. I think I have enough to last the summer. I don't work so it is kind of his money although he does let me get what I want most times. Sometimes what he doesn't know won't hurt him. lol
