I agree with Bella--don't feel guilty if you don't get on the bike. One day doesn't make a difference--especially with the last few days you've had.

Just remember to take care of yourself during all this. :hug2:
 
Hope your MIL gets better soon. I am absolutely astounded that the parking lot is literally 2 miles from the hospital room. I thought we had it bad in my city, but damn. Congrats for getting back into the 70s. Keep us posted on MIL.
 
:hug2: Im sorry for all that is going on - right now isnt the time for exercise it is the time for rest when you can get it.You are already burnt out dont crash at the same time...exercise can wait:)
 
:seeya: Hi everyone. :hug2:

Bell: Thanks doll. ;)

I finally got to the store..Thank gosh that's OVER.. lol

Kimberly: Okie-Dokie, I will. :)

Cita: LOL.. Downtown Dallas is a NIGHTMARE... :svengo:
They build all these huge buildings and hospitals, and THEN try to figure out the parking. At least it's great exercise.
Thanks! I'm so glad to be out of the 80's!

Thanks Cinderelly. :hug2:

>>>>>

Hubby went ahead and took a week's paid vacation.

Jan may be getting a blood transfusion soon. (for Hep. C)
In the 70's she lost a baby and almost died.
They had to give her tons of blood and of course back then they were not careful. :banghead: That's how she got the Hep. C

We found out yesterday that her kidney's are in bad shape.
She's sitting at a level of 30 (which is not good) - if she drops one more level and sits at 29, that is severe.

She will not qualify for a transplant bc of Hep. C and her age.

Her blood pressure yesterday afternoon at one point was 60/40!!

I'll give more details as we find out more.

I have ta get ready...We will be leaving soon.

At least I'll get in a lot of walking today.

Take Care Everyone.

Whelp,

When it rains it pours. :ack2:

Cory has been icky for 2 days and now it sounds like a sinus infection.

He also woke up w/pink eye. :rolleyes:

We'll be heading to the dr. in just a bit.

:seeya:
 
Pink eye? That seems to be going around atm. :ack2:

Sorry things are still rough for ya. Sending good vibes and lots of hugs your way, sweetie. :grouphug:
 
Thanks Kimberly.. :grouphug:

Well,

Cory has a bad sinus infection and just the start of pink-eye.

He got a shot, Z-Pack, and cough syrup.

He's already feeling better.

I cleaned the house to the T bc I felt like germs were everywhere.

:rolleyes: I hate ocd.

Just got out of the tub.

Better get off here bc we have ta eat and get some sleep.

Hubby and I will be at the hospital tomorrow at noon.

I'm pooped.

Oh, I'm now 177.4 :hurray:

I'm going Down - Down - Down!

Thank Goodness. :)

:grouphug: for everyone.
 
Sorry you're going through all that Stacey. Yup, the one good thing about being busy in a stressy sort of way is that you're thinking of bigger more important things than food and it really does help to get that weight right off. There's always an upside somewhere.
 
That's good Cory's feeling better.

Well, at least your house is clean now, so you can concentrate on more important things. :D

Congrats on losing more weight!! :party:
 
Sorry to hear that things are still going crazy :willy_nilly: for you.
I hope Corey feels better soon. I too have been battling a sinus thing for about a day now. So I know how awful he must be feeling.
Though I don't have pink eye!!! LOL
Glad to see that your weight is still going down. Usually in stressful times it will go up OR down. Looks like you got the down!!!
Keep at it.
Hopefully everyone in your family will be healthy in no time.
Chow!
 
:waving: Good Morning Friends. :grouphug:

Thanks for the support y'all and well wishes for everyone. :)

I'll take my measurements this weekend..(It has been 2 weeks.)

I'm drinking coffee and trying to get ready for today..

LOL - I'm sooooo NOT a morning person. :biggrinjester:

Have A Great Weekend Everyone.
 
Jan is finally home.

We all hope Jan & Jackie {Dave's dad} will do exactly what the doctors said so she won't have to go back in a week or so.

One of the main things is NUTRITION!

Since she is so little and frail, her body can't fight and she has no motor skills when she's not getting the proper nutrition.

Jackie has HORRIBLE COPD, so even something like helping Jan out of the tub is a huge deal bc he has no energy and can't breathe.

They are both in bad shape.

One of the main reasons they don't eat properly is bc of what all is wrong with them/lack of energy.

Dave's sis Cyndi took over homemade veggie soup yesterday, and tonight I'm taking some of their favorite side dishes - Potato Soup, Mashed Pots, and Rice with Peas. Cyndi will make the main dish.

Since they eat like birds, this will last a while.

We'll keep doing this each week bc we want both of themn to stay out of the dern hospital!

News with us:

Cory is back to school and healing.

This will be the first week I can finally try to get back into an exercise routine.

I want to reach a Mini Goal of 167.0 lbs by May 28th - My birthday.

Every year I look just horrible on my b-day and the pictures are horrible.

I want my 35th B-Day to be a happy one and look great. :)

I've missed you guys and I can't wait to catch up in all of your journals!

:grouphug:

Have A Goal Reachin' Monday!
 
Hi y'all..

It's been a busy morning here..

I have so much catching up to do around the house after bein' gone so much.

:svengo: lol

I'm now fixin' ta get chicken in the crock-pot for dinner tonight.

I'm makin' my yummy Mexican Chicken. (it simmers in a spicy cheese sauce all day.)

My goal for today is to get on the bike as much as I can and to also get in pilates.

Heck, I may try to get in a walk as well, as it's so beautiful!

It's 85* and cloudy.

~*Have A Great Tuesday*~ :)
 
Hi Stacy

I am sorry that you have had so many worries with your MIL and Corey's health. It is great that your weight is coming down though. Walking certainly does count as exercise - even when it is in normal day to day life.

I am sorry that I havent been by your diary - but I disappeared too. I was rushed into hospital last week and had to have an emergency operation myself. It wasnt that I had abandoned you.

Take care
Love
Margaret
 
Hi there!

Happy to hear Cory's getting better and Jan is home from the hospital. That is very sweet of y'all to cook them meals so they'll hopefully stay healthy. :)

I'd say if you hit the 160s by your b-day you will have BIG cause to celebrate. :party: Go for it, girl! :)
 
Margaret: So sorry to hear that you were in the hospital as well sweetie. :hug2: Hope things are ok now.

Thanks 4 checking on me. :seeya:

L-Lemon: I'll put it in the recipe section here. ;)

Kimberly: Thanks, I hope you're doin' well to! :hug2:

Thanks 4 checkin' in. :)

***********

Sorry I have been MIA E1..

It has just been a crazy time 'round here with all of us feeling ill, tryin' to be there for other family members in need, lack of energy bc we are just worn out, trying to keep up with things here at home, takin' care of b-day's {April is busy! Hubby and my two sisters.}
You wouldn't believe the weather we've had as well!
Lot's of severe t-storms along w/tornado warnings.
A few days I couldn't even get on the puter bc we got one storm after another.

I can't wait for April to be over and have a fresh/better start in May.. lol

I'm back to starting weight... (Not a shocker.. I know)
No exercise and food on the go really packs it on.

I hope you are all doing well and reachin' your goals. :grouphug:

I'm in this deep hole and just don't have the desire to dig myself out.

No one can dig me out, as I have to do it.

It's really - really hard.

I hope I'll get the desire soon.

I just don't care right now.

I'm not gonna have success until I care and start diggin'.

 
I hope that things are going well for you.

I am recovering pretty well - all things considered. I had to build my walking from scratch through - and am under strict instructions not to bend, stretch, lift anything or do anything energetic. It could have all gone so much worse though!

Take care
Love
Margaret
