SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted July 19, 2013 Ok this is a strange one. I have a speaker in my car that is blown and has been for awhile. It's in my center console. Up until now my butt muffled it so I couldn't hear it as much but now its the only thing I hear. So yea!! that I can hear it but boooo!! that I now have to buy a new speaker. Whatever tho' date=' I'll spend 50 on a new speaker and be skinny. Lol.[/quote'] oh how funny!!! HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 204.6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cecilia 201 Posted July 19, 2013 Today I had the experience of having to park very close to another car. I thought "I'm never going to make it out of my car door". And yet, to my surprise, even though the door only opened A foot or so, I was able to slip out quite easily! 1 cookier224 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deaddemmama 474 Posted July 20, 2013 By way way, up until the stroke, I walked all over, even up tons of stairs. The five songs I did get to see were sublime! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After a multitude of tests, they found the events ( i had 2) were transient. Now on blood thinners and should be fine. Was scary, though....slurred speech, confusion,inabilty to speak. And I missed the shhow. My son stayed( i insisted) and he said the concert was awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nhnurse1 108 Posted July 20, 2013 Yesterday while grocery shopping I saw an old friend from high school. Before I would usually duck and hide so they wouldn't see how much weight I had gained after high school. Yesterday I actually felt proud of myself and decided to say hi. It was so nice. We caught up for a few then I bumped into someone else!! It felt good not to be ashamed. I am going to my 20th ha reunion tonight! Although I am still about 50 lbs heavier than I was in hs, I am still much more confident in this body than in one that weighed 86 lbs more just months ago. It really is such a great feeling, be proud girl!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futuremrsparker 288 Posted July 20, 2013 By way way' date=' up until the stroke, I walked all over, even up tons of stairs. The five songs I did get to see were sublime![/quote'] So glad you are ok! A friend of mine had a mini stroke right after here surgery.. She was down about 70lbs or so and her doctor said she probably wouldn't have been with us if she hasn't taken off all that weight prior to the stroke. Praise The Lord for his perfect timing (even with the bad stuff). 1 deaddemmama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
