Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 I'm also praying for you Pepper! and everybody on the prayer list Eloy. -------------- Original message from Pepper : -------------- Thank you Beth. Yes I ahve had a lot going on and I have been traveling back and forth to Missouri for over a year now. Losing Eddie was very hard and I have bad days and will continue to have them for some time but I am trying to get back on track and get my life and my health back together. I got doctor's appointments all week next week. Right now I guess my lupus is flared up pretty bad. My face is broke out over my cheeks and nose and my right side of my face is swollen pretty bad. I don't hurt in my face other than it feeling tight. I am awfully tired but thats expected. I hope it lets up so I can get out and do some kind of exercise. I may just have to try and walk to the tapes I have. The sun is too hot to try and get out in it. Thanks for your concern. Love, Pepper Beth wrote: Seems like that you have had a lot going on. I'm glad that you have an optimistic outlook and am focusing on getting back on track. I pray that your health concerns resolve themselves. Have a better week, TOPS hugs and smiles, BethPepper wrote: Well just as I thought I had a gain tonight, BUT, it was not near as bad as I thought it would be. I had a 3 1/2 pound gain. I will work on gettin that off all this comming week. Got to get busy and start losing. Everyone told me how good it was to have me back, but, then on the same hand they told me how bad I looked!!! LOL They had this awful look on thier face when they hugged me. I do look pretty bad. The lupus is flared up and my face is broke out across the cheeks and nose area and the right side is really bad with a big bag under my eye and it is swollen. (also kind purplish/red in color) I have appointments all week next week. Hope my face is cleared up before I have to go to the doctor through. So now what on the contest? What happens when you gain? Could you sned me the rules again? Love ya Pepper __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Pepper ~ That is so SWEET !!!!!! Your hubby sounds like a DEFINITE keeper ~~~~~~ as you have done !!!!! So happy y'all have such a special relationship !!!!!! You BOTH are blessed !!!!!!!! Hugs, Randie AND congrats on the loss !!!!!!!! GREAT going !!!!!!!!! You WILL get those other 3 off and MORE !!!!!!!!!! Hugs, Randie ROLL CALL Well I had a 1/2 pound loss tonight!! I was glad for that. Now I got to get those other 3 pounds off. went with me to TOPS tonight. It sure makes me feel proud and so good when just about everyone came up and wanted a hug from him. You would have to know Alice, one of our long standing KOPS, to understand this, BUT, she is really funny and tonight she was bent over and I kinda pinched her on the butt and said...", you know better than top pinch Alice like that"....and of course was looking for a hole to crawl in AND Alice turns and says..."yeah , now you got to pinch the other cheek"!!! Poor ! Everyone just cackled their heads off. Of course then everyone was telling him that he had their sympathy. He then put his arm around me and said I was the spice in his life he had never had before. He is such a sweetheart. He said he would join if he did not have to work nights. That would be great. It will never happen though unless he retires because he will not be able to come off that night shift. Ok I did no exercise and I did not keep a food chart . This week will be different though. I know I will keep a food chart and hopefully the doctor will let me do some exercise if I feel up to it. I go back Monday and I will ask then. I do not have a reciepe for breakfast or at least not one that is low fat.
