  1. How I survive life, .. I have a plastic tumbler on my desk, double to drink water from , lately when I drink the water its been tasting funny. I figured it was my breath, I'd eaten something so I 've been drinking from it. This morning

      I poured water into the double thick cup and took a drink from the bottle, the water bottle tasted fine, I finally take a look at the cup, it developed a tiny crack and had started to mold,, its been tossed! I told my hubby, he says its ok its just penicillin,, (brushing my teeth every hour, lol)

  8. Watching my 600 lb journey "Melissa says, every pound I;ve gained is attached to an emotion < I can say thats true for me. I also didn;t know that excess skin they take off is used for burn patients.

    1. #MagicWithinme

      #MagicWithinme

      on the show they do

      I was watching the same episode and that's the first time I've heard that too -- I think it's great they can use the skin like that. Amazing!

    3. Skywalker

      Skywalker

      I watch that all the time. It's so fascinating, I wish they had more on Neflix streaming than just Melissa's story (which I must have watched five times now :-)

       

      Great use of the excess skin, also.

  9. Saddened when these young people use their babies as pawns in their break up games. Ruined childhoods and missed experiences.

  10. Better Monday than I thought, this morning went to bank to get some lunch money,

    1. #MagicWithinme

      #MagicWithinme

      went through all the steps and it kept telling me can not assist. I looked back, yep right bank, right pin number, I finally hit cancel and when the card came out it was the wrong CARD.. hey I had 2-3 right, lol went home for lunch, ran out of time...

    2. Chelly

      Chelly

      Oh my I think this is something we all have done one time or another. LOL

      You were also probably better off to go home for lunch it most likely was more nutritional for you any way.

  11. Good Morning Ladies, its Friday, Lets straigten the crowns on our heads and rule the day!

  12. Words I never expected, chiro says I have arthritis in my back!

    1. #MagicWithinme

      #MagicWithinme

      I said how can that be as active as I am? Well since the time I stopped the zumba due to lump, it gave the arthritis a chance to set, if that makes sense. so now I have to be careful of my back, she said I should of had another set of x-rays done after weight loss to check spine which other dr didn't. it clearly shows my spine unaligned. I asked so he's just been fixing the same problem that would never have been resolved? she said yes, and he never should of been doing adjustments in the area of the lapband, as big as it is, no wonder it hurt. So now I have now transferred my chiro care elsewhere. The pain will go away, the bruising will heal but the trust can't. And she said as healthy as everything else is, I'll be able to do zumba again..

    2. Chelly

      Chelly

      That's good that you can Zumba again.

      I have fibromyalgia, arthritis, stenosis of the spine and a few other things but I still ride the stationary bicycle four times a week and do some walking the other days. I do nine miles in 40 minutes on the stationary bicycle.

      I'm so glad that you have gotten to someone that will help you feel better and that won't harm you in the process.

      Feel good.

      Chelly

      The strange things we find in our purses and yours was a wonderful heavy present from your little love.

  15. Got a chiro adjustment Monday, looked at my tummy big bruise, where dr. "adjusted me" going back tailbone hurts. sometimes I forget to remind him

    1. Chelly

      Chelly

      My tailbone sticks out and it's very uncomfortable to sit or laying on my back. Now sleep on side. You could say I have a boney butt. LOL

       

    2. #MagicWithinme

      #MagicWithinme

      Chelly exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! all of a sudden there is NO padding in that area.. went to chiro again last night, said fix me but don't touch that area, I was off Monday by 3/4 inc, and last night by 1/2 inch and I sleep with a pillow between my legs buts it just my own body adjusting ,,, will be thinking about butt check implants if this continues !!!

    3. Debbie3sons

      Debbie3sons

      I know how you feel it seems my back side is hurting more now that I have lost weight from carrying all the weight before I now found out besides the bulging , detereating, degenerating discs in y back I have 5 fractures on my spine , next step is seeing a orthapedic surgeon , because the ciropractor said for me being adjusted is temporary and it would not help any more and I can not sit for a long time with out it being uncomfortable .

  18. I saw my self in the zumba mirror there I was wearing big clothes, and I was feeling big, next morning wear closer fitting closing I looked so different, Put away the fat zumba clothes!

    1. Debbie3sons

      Debbie3sons

      Nice , ya you kind of notice when there are big mirrors around , or when other people are telling you that the shirt is swallowing you so you don't really notice till it is pointed out or you have to keep lifting your shirt so it's not hanging or you have to keep pulling up your pants even with a belt on or other things keep up the good loss work.

  19. Are you living your dream, or one someone told you you should have?

      If you're talking weight loss, I think we are lying to ourselves if we only say it's our dream. We don't live in a vacuum. I have been very influenced by my surroundings. But ultimately, it has been a dream come true!
