Shellj685's Journal, 29 April 2008

So, I guess I better give a quick update before I go to bed. I found out why I didnt lose this week... TOM... Duh!! lol! It came "to visit" last night. Thats also why I've been overly stressed/emotional/craving chocolate! Oh the joys of being a woman!

Well, my grandmother had surgery on her back today. They filled the fracture with some kind of cement type stuff. It was a total success! An hour after the surgery, she was in such good spirits! I havent seen her like that in a long time! She said she was ready to run laps around the hospital. The radiologists even told her she should be able to go home tomorrow. She'll just have physical therapists come to her house and work with her. I am so glad that it wasnt bad enough for her to have to do nursing home care! That would have been difficult.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments on yesterday's journal! I am so glad I found FS and met all of my amazing buddies!! We are all gunna win this race together! :-)

That's great news about your grandmother!! How great that she can do physical therapy from home, too! And boy, does that explain why you've had a rough few days. TOM is the worst date I've ever had!!! I hate when he comes to visit. Definitely stays longer than he should, makes us change all sorts of plans, and makes us feel bad about ourselves!!! Frankly, I'm always ready to see him go when he leaves!!! ha!

What WONDERFUL news about your Grandma! I'm happy all went well for her and hoping for a real swift recovery! Ya, I'm good for a 'gain' when my 'visitor' comes...happy when it's gone and I'm leveled out on hormones and cravings for sure! Have a great day and hugs to you with a sigh of relief for Grandma!

I'm glad you figured out why you stalled this week. Just keep doing what has worked so far and you will reach your goal! :)
