Carolyn, have a great time! Sounds like you will be dumped on with snow, I hope you get there without any trouble. Betty, I'm so glad work went well. I agree about practicing small talk. Although I find the environment contributes to it as well. I can make small talk with my team of 6...

Happy Belated Birthday Carolyn! Spending the day with family sounds like a great way to spend your birthday. I have a fitbit and I love it! Betty, congratulations on the job, it sounds perfect for you! Part-time and close to home, what a way to get back into working. I am very happy for...

Hello ladies, I had a busy week last week and no time for the forums. My Mom was sick, and we spent Thurs. afternoon at Joslin. One of the appts. was with a family therapist, which I had some hope for but really didn't like it. She listened to us and didn't say much, I was hoping she could...

Betty your lunch sounds delicious! We have not been getting any good seafood since our local fish market closed. Ok, I kid you not, I went to get a cup of tea and a very nice co-worker put a Lindor chocolate on my desk while I was gone. I did not have the heart to give it back but I did not...

Hello ladies! Carolyn, so sorry about the lack of sleep and cramps, not a good start to a Monday. I hope the advil kicks in soon. I am on the final week of Meso2 which has drop sets. I am finding them very challenging. I think my weights went up after meso 3 so that is my excuse. My dd had...

Hello ladies, I've been in a funk with this never ending winter and nothing to look forward to. Betty, so sorry that your shoulders are not getting any better. Are you icing them? Might be time to go to the dr. Jean, it does seem odd they would plant while it is snowing and no one lives...

I forgot to say before, there were only 3 of us home for dinner last night so dh wanted to go out. We have not been out with dd for dinner since she was diagnosed. We went to a 99 close by, they list nutrition info on their website. I could not believe the amount of calories and fats in their...

Jean, don't second guess about your new friend. If you had 7 and 3 couldn't make it, that would have been 10 which is a nice round number. And she probably invited you because she has met you a few times and thought it would be nice to get to know you better! I finally got to watch the last...

Betty, from my experience, if your shoulder hurts you should rest and ice it until it is no longer painful during your normal day. Then slowly and gently start to stretch it, and if something hurts, back off. It is easy to aggravate it when it is inflamed and make it worse. And so sorry about...

Boy the snow is coming down fast! I went into work today but came home at lunch, the roads are slippery too. Girls were supposed to go tubing this afternoon but no one wants to drive so they postponed til tomorrow. Now they are bored. Yesterday I did STS #16 (back&bis). I had the day off -...

Jean, we posted at the same time. I think Missy was taking some time off with Tim. And yes, we are getting more snow today, but it is supposed to warm up later in the week.

I feel like such a shut-in with this weather. My brother was supposed to come for dinner but cancelled because of the snow, and I don't feel like going anywhere either. So dull! I did STS #16 (Ch,Sh,tris) this morning. M2 seems harder for some reason after M3. I got the name of another mom...

I am working from home today, I knew it would get bad later. So dh thought it would be a good day to drop my car off for regular maintenance. It wasn't bad dropping it off but we had to pick it up this afternoon - what a mess the roads are! Luckily there are not many cars out. My kids are...

Good morning! They called at 6am to cancel school, that seems late. The HS buses are so early, alot of people must have been up already. Just light snow right now, hard to tell how much we will get. I did step from 4ds this morning, felt like moving around a bit and the music is fun in that...

Ooh, Betty, watch out for your shoulder. Maybe some step? I could not get onto the forums earlier today at all. I went for a quick walk yesterday at lunch, but then I was chilled to the bone for the rest of the afternoon. Probably something to do with forgetting my hat. It is supposed to be...

Carolyn, I would speak to that coach about what he said to ds. That is completely unacceptable and goes against everything a coach should do, especially at his age. My kids are older than yours and have played competitive sports for a while, they tend to figure out where they are in relation...

Hello ladies, This morning started Meso 2 again. My weights were a little higher than the last time and I had a tough time with shoulders and tris after all the chest work. It felt great to do weights again. Oldest dd has a gym membership while she is not doing any sports, so we added...

Hello ladies! I just got back from a brisk walk outside. I was going to walk around the parking lot but happened to notice someone had plowed the walking path, so I did that instead. I could have used sunglasses, it is so bright out with the snow reflecting the sun, but I feel much better for...

Hello ladies, I get so confused by all the skin care products I don't know what to do. Even Olay and Neutrogena have multiple lines of products - what is the difference between them? Right now my skin is so dry and dull,I can't stand it. I need to exfoliate but I am really lazy in that area...

We just got back from Joslin, and I feel much better. The dr. said we are doing well, it is just very difficult to regulate a 14 yr old's body, so that is why they have us check so often. And dd's pancreas is still working somewhat, because she is only taking half the amount of insulin that...
