Guest guest Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Hi Kinsey, That's funny that you only think of evil Kathy Bates. hee hee! Really, though, when I've seen her dressed up and made up for awards shows and things, I think she's really pretty. Congratulations to your son on the new job! I'm sure he's looking forward to being done with high school. I know I was! Hugs! Tracey > Thank you Tracey, > Things are getting better each day!

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Jim...Sorry your news is so discouraging. I take a lot of thryoid extract everyday, and now have normal readings. Let's hope your tiredness and frustrating plateau are easily resolved. Thanks for the offer of help re my husband. I may still need to take you up on that offer! At the moment, he is still here- I think he reacted to " his pain " by wanting to run away. I have mixed emotions about the whole thing- we have gone to see a couples marital counselor, and will again. It's hard to throw 36 years away. Thanks for the report on all the current inmates. Best.. Betsy RE: Re: Stars in my eyes Hello one and all. I just returned from Delano where I saw our beloved Dr. K, and visited the inmates. Judy/Judith/ or something like that from Ukiah is doing well. She was having some problems, but after she sat in the recliner, she was able to have a nice conversation. Her surgery was yesterday. She has already had " a huge bowel movement " to use her words. Beverly is doing remarkable. She is on oxygen and they are trying to get her blood sugar and blood pressure down. They went sky high after the surgery. In fact, while I was there she walked for the first time in a couple of days. She seemed to really appreciate the visit, and I was able to tell her about my friend Joanne who had the surgery and ALSO had sleep apnoea, which Beverly has. Joanne went off the machine in a few weeks after surgery. Beverly seemed to be very cheered up by that news. -- Pat, Beverly was very touched and THRILLED by the card you sent. The young girl...Sandy, or something like that, is doing really well! Dinking though a straw even, but discovered the evils of gas. She is also doing very well. She said not much pain at all. Her mom is really funny, too! She was treating everyone there like they were her children. Bobbed is doing GREAT. She is having muscle spasms in her back, which has made her very uncomfortable and she hasn't slept much. I told her to tell the nurse to call Dr. K. I barely had that out of my mouth when DR K walked by!! So, by the time I left, Bobbe was headed off for her date with Mr. Sandman. So, that's the news of the inmates who were awake and receptive to visits. As for my report, well, it is disappointing and disconcerting. I gained 1.4 pounds, but that was ok. Dr. K said " that's one good bowel movement. " But, my BMI is up TWO dang points! He was really concerned about that, and the fact that my skin is extra dry -- something the machine told him, and something that has nothing to do with the amount of hydration. Also, he questioned me at length about my tiredness. These things combined make him think my thyroid is messed up. He ordered blood work to see about that. He said he'd never seen a plateau this early in the game. I lost 40 pounds in 3 weeks and not another pound and it's been 3.7 months. So, he said if the thyroid isn't the culprit, then he will recommend a tummy tuck NOW. He said it could be that the body is just going for t he easiest fat to find and burn for energy, and not going after the fat that causes weight loss. Removing the apron will force the body to burn the " deep fat " , what ever that is, that is associated with weight loss. So there you have my whole depressing story. Then on top of that, I was talking with Joanne via cell phone, on the way home (talked for 65 minutes) and drove by all the gas stations!!!! I had to back track about 30 miles to Lost Hills or I'd be sitting by the side of the road wishing for one of our two Witches to materialize and give me gas... No, wait, I mean, put some PETROL in my car. LOL Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Jim, I'm sure Dr. K will get to the bottom of this! I have never heard an explanation like this... Learn something new every day... I'm sure you are discouraged, but try to keep your spirits up, it WILL be resolved! Glad you didn't " run out of gas " ... hmmmmmm, like that could happen to us DSers LOL Hugs, Wanda > As for my report, well, it is disappointing and disconcerting.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Hi Jim! Thanks for the update on the inmates. I am so sorry about your own personal report. I know it wasn't news you wanted nor expected. I do trust Dr. K to get to the bottom of what's up with your thyroid, though, and I hope you will soon be on the way to greater losses! Hugs and blessings, Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
