4paws-- sorry about the migraine! hate them myself. but congratulations on the rain! know from kids and friends how much yoyu need it! just spoke to my friend in oak lawn aand he has not seen any rain. when they say scattered they mean it! does the chAnge in barometric pressure have anything to do with your headache? i'm still not sure all the things that trigger mine.
jholm-- watch that sugar! up or down too much is not good! such a pain to have to deal with-just before i started losing weight my dr said i was headed to diabetes. my dh was diabetic but lost 90lbs (and 5 internal parts) and the diabetes went away. so i knew losing weight would help me too. (i've already given up a bunch of internal pieces so i will keep what i have left, thank you.) by the time i'm done i too will have lost a good amount of weight- my weight was 225 when i started losing and 212 when i started on this thread.my goal is 140 so do the math. (seriously, i can multiply- 3 kids, divide-parts removed, and add- four pets, but just don't subtract!LOL.) it's a good amount and all needs to go. i'm resigned to the fact i will look older and more wrinkled. heaven knows i have not pampered my skin for the past 60 yrs, so i get what i deserve. also, trying to get fit has been a major problem with limited co-operation from my body. i've never been a jock so don't have that muscle tone to fall back on. on the immediate scene, my back is semi-fine and my headache is just normal now and i'm pretty much trying to get into the groove! i have a baby to hold!! and adore! and play with ! places to go, people to see and i want to at least feel skinny, even if i'm not!
