You guys did better than me, Pam and Gayle. I have gained 23 lbs since middle of Janurary when I went back on insulin. UGH this is a b***** I hate this.
I went to the cardiologist today, he is not as concerned at the PCP over my EKG. He is more concerned about the type of lung cancer I had as it can affect the heart. I am scheduled for a cardio stress test with echo on the 14th of this month. So will see what then. I am still working on losing weight. My blood sugar numbers are good, much better.

I gained 40 pounds when I went through menopause.
My thyroid went whacky and I didn't even know it was menopause.
By the time I said something to my doctor and she tested me, I was almost at the end!
All those years I was terrified (of meno), and I was almost done.
This 12 pound weight loss this year still leaves 28 to get back to where I was 2 years ago.
*sigh*, but I WILL get there.
I am so determined!
I hate being fat and tired, and tired and fat and unhealthy...more than I like food.
That's it.
hugs, we're all pulling for ya

Cindy I am glad your blood sugars are better. I said a prayer for your tests etc. Also a prayer for all of us to keep on keeping on with our weight loss struggles. I am one who is an emotional eater, so when major stuff goes on I don't do well. When I sew that helps me more than anything.

I heard from Airwick this morning, she is doing ok, still dealing with lots of anexity. Hasn't talke or seen the husband, but heard thru a friend that he was in the hospital for a while. She still doesn't know what she is going to happen but living one day at a time. She is going to try to join our weight loss adventure again.
Please keep her in your prayers.

Thank-you... How exciting... I'm looking forward to making a quilt or something with the winnings to remind me anything is possible. we are all capable of loosing weight. For me it's setting my mind to it. We all know what to eat whereI usually get in trouble is thinking I can have just 1 of something, when truly having none is the easier choice and eliminates the choice to have just 1 more. Things I tell myself "I'm worth taking care of" rather than the defeated negative things that come way too easy, "No" I've had to tell myself no many times over the last month I didn't die from not having whatever it was that looked soooo... good. Each time I said "No" it strenthened my resolve to do better/ be better. Praying blessings on all of you... I read the posts ever day or so and say a prayer. Glad to her an update on Airwick, so happy about the new baby and Cindy's blood sugars doing better
