Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Hi Bonnie, I'm so glad that your back feels better and that you are able to move more easily today. I hope that your back continues to improve, and that before long, you will be back to your old (I don't mean that word in terms of AGE) self ASAP!!! Don't worry about your weight so much!! Did you know that just by " affirming " that you cannot lose weight easily, even with LL, that you are insuring that you will not be able to lose it easily? It is like a self fulfilling prophecy that you are creating for yourself. So, think and speak about your weight more positively, and your positive attitude will manifest itself in your body's ability to lose weight easily!!! Just keep thinking " I CAN LOSE WEIGHT EASILY!! " . " I CAN LOSE WEIGHT EASILY!!! " , " I CAN LOSE WEIGHT EASILY!!! " and continue to do your LL breathing, and you will see a tremendous difference in the results you will get, I am sure!!! Much love to you, Bonnie, and take care. I hope that you are having a wonderful day, my friend!!! Love always, Pat Bonnie Mathis wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > - what great news re your son!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Bonnie Basic in Kentucky and then Fort Rucker Alabama After basic and officer school then on to flight school deployment is not suppose to happen until 3 years(everything I'm sure could change) He willbe in flight school to fly the helicopters We are so proud of all the service men also and protecting our country thanks again R Monday morning .... Hi Everyone, - what great news re your son! Where does he do his training, and for how long? Then what can he expect (deployment-wise)? My son-in-law (Army, Ranger) returned (safely!) from Afghanistan/Iraq a few weeks ago - and he has LOTS of helicopter/rappeling (sp?) stories! Apparently they jump (or climb down ropes) from the 'copters in certain situations - sounds scary to me.... Tell your son congratulations from me, and that I really and truly appreciate what he is doing for our great country! Jen (I think it was) - I have the perfect " cure " for your " pancake " situation - come visit me and we'll share and divide! Looking at me from the front, I have very little hips - but from the side it looks like a ledge! Clothes fit funny (the waists tend to gape several inches in the very back) - and this has nothing to do with weight, it's just the way I'm built - I've ALWAYS envied those with less in the behind! I've been laying on the floor with my legs on a chair (takes pressure off your back, really relieves the pain) quite a bit lately -- really good that I can do LifeLift breathing in this position! My back is quite a bit better now, am returning (slowly) to my regular exercise routine - still don't have the nerve to try positions that put any strain on my back - but I did manage to bend at the waist and touch the floor with my hands this morning - at least I'm starting to improve! It always surprises me just how fast I seem to get " out of shape " anymore and lose my flexibility! Age-related, perhaps? However, I still have a belly-bulge - and I'm still working on it! And I also put on several pounds while I was down with the back problem - hopefully I'll be able to easily get those pesky pounds off now (quickly!) before the weight really settles in... I really envy those of you who seem to so easily take off the pounds/inches with LL breathing - I have to work at it so darned hard! But I do have very good health, which I attribute to LL and careful eating - so I'll quit whining.....

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 , My son-in-law deployed out of Savannah, GA - but I imagine that the helicopters he dropped out of were the ones your son is training to fly. I gather there is a lot of learning and co-ordination for the guys - both on the pilot's side and the parachuters... Wait until he tells you about the training exercises! They drop the Rangers into swamps (FL), mountains (northeast), etc., etc. - and I think typically from helicopters. brought back some video clips from the 'copters, and my gosh, the skill those guys demonstrate! Those pilots can place them ANYWHERE under ANY conditions!
