  1. You will feel do much better. I also went awhile before my surgery having no attacks was wondering if I should just cancel then had a grand daddy attack omg. Needless to say it was out and directly post op I finally could breathe and felt so so much better. It honestly wasn't a bad surgery at all.
  2. You look amazing. Congrats!!
  3. So..the only news I know at this point is my hubby's a going to retrain. I'm looking at about at least 2-4mon before we will know where. Sucks not knowing but this is the military life. He has narrowed down the places tho so I feel slightly better. Hopefully we will know more about his date of surgery next Tuesday. Would at least make it easier to think about.
  4. I'm trying this so I'm so glad to see u posting this. I'm super slow loser..apr 30th was my surg date and I'm down 38lb..feel not so successful! I've forced myself to increase my intake all the way around hoping it boosts my loss. Crossing my fingers.
  5. Applewood baked pork cutlets and fresh corn.
  6. Way to go!!! Looking good!
  7. Yep! Need to log that into my fitness pal. Lol Haven't got a appt yet to see a new primary dr as mine has left his practice so I'm out here waiting to see what can be done about my knee.
  8. I kinda played hooky today. I didn't really have anything to do at work so I didn't go and I kept my son home. Have been counting my blessings after a day of watching Netflix documentaries..always good to see something alot worse so u know just how much u do have good trying to be positive and waiting for the hubby to come back home hoping for any news. Took my son to get some yogurt and was super nice. Took the chance to go also and get some more Vitamins. At Walgreens they now have diff vitamins and also fish oil in "pearl" form. Alot easier to swallow that the big traditional fish oil. It's hot today so gonna couch surf for awhile til time to cook dinner.
  9. Aw that sucks and is scary
  10. Wish crushing jelly in candy crush counted
  11. Week 4-5 was prob the worst for me. Zofran was my best friend. It did get better tho and just rare occasional nausea now. I had a change in my diet around that timeframe and kinda think that might be why.
  12. Omg I can only imagine. I work medical so I can imagine the details u have to deal with. Definitely whatever makes u happy! Both are highly sought fields right now so I'm sure u would do great. I like the area u live at..wish we could come but hubs is af not navy or would be a thought. We love FL. The thought of leaving it is hard.
  13. Yes I live between Pensacola and Destin. Thank u..I'm so stinking stressed right now. I'm so thankful to have u guys to talk to.
  14. Yes that's it. My husband got upset with me tonight with my crying convinced I'm gonna leave him cause of all of this and how I'm scared. That's never even crossed my mind but fear of everything that feels so outta control. Simple stuff like getting set up god knows where with my nursing license is crazy. This yard being cared for and getting the house prepped..I have nobody to help me with this yard and my house is too big for me to manage with working and everything else. Feeling like I could cut my knee off to make it better and wondering how on earth I'm gonna do this stuff. I've never had to move like this. I've only lived in 2 areas my whole life. The military life is still kinda new as we have only been married 3 years yesterday. It's hard having someone tell u where to go and when but I knew this marrying him. I'm so glad I have u guys. I talk to my hubby but right now there is so much more he can't understand going on. I'm just scared. Thanks for listening
  15. I need to vent. I am so sorry I haven't been upbeat lately. I'm overwhelmed. My husband just had his foot surgery a month ago and now is back mobile having tons of pain. His f/u the biopsy said they removed only half the nerve and part of a cyst. They need to go back in and remove the rest of the nerve. I have a torn meniscus in my rt knee previously but it had enough scar tissue I didn't have surgery 5yrs ago now I've hurt it all over again. I can't bear alot of weight on it. He is also having to go to retrain as he can no longer continue with the flying his job requires. That leaves us up in the air just knowing we are gonna be forced to pcs(relocate) to another base. We have no idea where it remotely can be or even when other than it can be as short as possibly 3 months from now. I've just started this job with hospice and am quiet content with it. I'm so overwhelmed with it all. We now are talking about getting our house we just had built on the market and ready to sell. I've had to pull most of the weight around here physically and the idea of him immobile cause severe pain leaves me dreading the fact the military will make him have to get his foot fixed ASAP. I have little chance to worry about my own injury. I'm feeling selfish and just worn out. I've spent most of the day in tears trying to be positive when everything feels so outta control. I haven't broke it to my family yet we are moving cause why set them up to be all upset when I don't have concrete details to tell them? My baby sister is 24 and is brain damaged from a blood clot to her brain 2 years ago from BC pills..she is the one I wrote about here in my get to know me bit..she has thrown another clot. I hate the idea any day could be her last and I may not get there if something happens. Sorry so long and sorry to just unload..I just felt it all welling up inside. Apparently my friends are too busy with lives of their own now to talk much. I just feel weary.
  16. Thanks. I hurt this one before several years back and have just dealt with it. I think it's done for now.
  17. Glad u got a bit of rest. Pain and lack of sleep can make everything in life suck. Hope today continues well for u!
  18. I have totally jacked my knee up. I had irritated it and it was sore with my return to running. Yesterday I decided to run across a parking lot to my car as a monsoon of rain was falling and I ended up sliding and not sure what happened. Trying to do the ice/rest method on it but the pulling feeling sucks. I can barely bear weight so exercise is totally out. Totally discouraging to me as I haven't had any great loss even exercising. Now I'm unable to do much of anything. My PCM is quitting his practice so I'm in process of finding a new dr. Sucks.
