We just had a tornado hit our house! We are fine, the roof is missing shingles and it blew the wrought iron furniture across the yard, and blew the front pillars off the porch! Our blessed neighbors came over and re-installed the pillar, landlord will fix the shingles and anchor the pillars in the morning.
It was very scary. We will have more storms tonight.

Purplmem, you need to watch your diabetes, it is dangerous to get so low. Since I have started this latest diet, I have been able to stop taking one of my meds that made me go so low. Take care of yourself.
I too, am bi-polar, and am so glad they have meds that help. It gives me a life. Before it stunk. My poor husband stuck with me and now we are feasting on the manna that we were denied for oh, so long. I am a blessed person.
By the way, we don't recoons either. LOL You made my day, and I am drooling because of where you live.

Dropping below 1,200 caloroies a day can cause lots of problems. It can actually fool your body into thinking it is starving and you will slow down on the burning of calories. It shouldn't be done without a medical OK.
I get really concerned when I see people losing 20+ pounds in a month. A healthy weight loss should be 1 to 2 pounds a week.
Go online and Mayo Clinic has a decent diet that can be used to jump start a diet. It is based on the food pyramid.
MJ, please be careful. The world needs you. Carol

MJ, glad you are okay, blood sugar wise, and tornado wise. We have been under tornado warning for the past 2 hrs. Heavy rain, horrible thunder and lightening. Tornado alarms keep going off. However, it does seem the worst has passed over. I hope it stays gone. We are expecting "severe thunderstorms" off and on all night.
I am to be at the hospital tomorrow morning at 5:00 AM. I have a "special soap" I have to shower with in the AM so I will be up at 3:30 AM, if I even get any sleep at all. I am nervous and plum sick to my stomach. I could not eat dinner, as I am so close to throwing up. Just been drinking my water. I am so ready to get this surgery over with and be on the mend, but I'm still nervous, which is normal...... I hope you all have a good evening. Stay safe. Big hugs, Sandy

MJ, I'm glad you are okay. Our weather has been terrible, too. Reported, but not comfirmed, tornadoes last night and the strangest lighting I have seen in Michigan. 15 minutes of continuous horizontal lightning with no thunder. Lots of huge trees down, but no injuries.
Sandy, get some sleep after bathing with that nasty soap. You're almost on your road to recovery. My prayers for a calm morning, successful surgery and uneventful healing are with you.
