Friends…

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

You know it takes alot to be friends with someone who is sick all the time and is not always able to make parties or has to bail at the last minute…But you know what I have come to learn, that if they don’t take the time to understand then they weren’t truly your friends to begin with …I’m beginning to learn that in the last few years…My best friend lives all the way in Nevada, but even if we don’t see each other, I know in my heart she is there for me at any moment…She never hesitates to listen even if I seem melodramatic at the time…Dianne will never know how much she means to me and always will, she is like my sister…And now I have found two new friends who have had Weight loss surgery and I’m hoping to build a lifelong friendship with as well…Melinda(Recovering Fatty) and Tammy (T2nashville) I can’t express how much love and support they have given me, I had to bail on a party that was happening tonight…Instead of them complaining about me not going, they were genuinely concerned how I felt and that is a great feeling knowing someone has your back…And not counting all the wonderful support groups I have on my site and Twitter…For that I thank you all and appreciate you more then you will ever know…

Love always,

Apology…

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

I haven’t been posting much lately because my energy level’s have not been as great as I would have like it to be and won’t until I have my IV treatment…This is what happens when I get low and it was my fault that I had waited as long as I did…It’s hard sometimes just to walk down my stairs without getting out of breathe…

So please accept my apologies that I might not post every day like I have been…Hopefully after March 16th things will start getting back to normal again…

To all my reader’s you are the greatest support group I could have ever asked for…Your word’s of encouragement and understanding just amazes me…Thank you immensely…

IV Nutrient Issue…

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

For the past couple of months I have known that I have needed to go into the hospital and do my IV treatments, but things kept coming up and I haven’t had time…Like all of us, life gets in the way, and I can’t do that to myself again…I’m paying the price now, because my symptoms are back like they were before they ever started the treatments…

Now let me stress this even again, I TAKE a liquid multi vitamin twice a day…Some people can’t seem to comprehend it or automatically want to judge me or people in general when they have no right to do so… That is like me judging someone if they regained weight after having this surgery, but I wouldn’t do that to another person because I don’t know their circumstances and most importantly I care to much for others…We need to be supportive of each other, not against…Which my readers are nothing like that and I greatly appreciate it, your the best….:)

So now that I have said that these are my symptoms: breathing difficulties, extreme fatigue, very pale, heart palpitations(even take a dry thiamine pill), crankiness, shakiness, lack of hunger, some hair shedding, body cramps, dry mouth, coldness(even worse then normal) etc…

I know now that I can not afford to slack off on getting my treatments…I take full responsibility on my part for not going in and I can’t feel sorry for myself and nor should anyone else for that matter…I share my personal struggles with you so that if you have problems like this, maybe your doctor can help you out before it’s too late…Everything that I’m doing comes from the heart and I wouldn’t want another person to have to deal with this on a daily basis…My goodness it’s a pain in the ass to think of this all the time and can get quite sickening to talk about oneself so much…I have a bubbly personality that gets over shadowed by my illness, which is unfortunate…

P.s. Still writing about my vitamin D issues and will have pics of everything I was taking…

Wishing everyone a great day!

Weekend Sunshine…

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Today and yesterday we have had gorgeous weather and I decided to get out and just enjoy the sunshine…And if you know me or have read my post in the past then you know how I hate the sun, but these past few days I desperately needed it…Now I can go back into my cave for the rest of the year…LOL…Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend…

Writing a post on Lacking Vitamin D so keep an eye out…

Pain in the back…

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I have had this problem ever since I was heavy so this is not a new anything, just a repeat offender…I have a Sciatic Nerve problem in my back and it popped or slide out of place yesterday…My body looks out of place since one side is up higher then the other and it’s a pain in the ass to get up and walk…So I have been mostly on my back and trying to keep a warm compress on my back…So I haven’t been around but have a great post to do when I get to feel better…

Hope everyone has a great weekend…Thank you for your patience of me…
