Not Sure Somehow
Just really not sure somehow.
I think I'm feeling not too bad but with minor lupus flare issues popping up at a moments notice it throws me off balance. The major post surgery issue I'm still noticing is the capacity I have for an amount of food at one time. I just can't seem to tolerate any larger volume of food. I notice too my system seems very sensitive to sweets and/or fats then it used to be. I guess this can be a good thing in a way but I just don't know. My weight is down to 125 & I'm getting so tired of people rather then extending a greeting when we come together the first thing they say is oh you've lost weight haven't you, darn it all. But even to myself I'm starting to feel like I'm looking a bit too gaunt. I see my diabetes dr in a week. He ran some blood work to test various levels so maybe I can get myself straightened out.
I haven't been back at Zumba yet. Part of me wants to so bad but the other side just doesn't seem to have the energy for that level of exercise. I've just started going back to the gym two days a wk & I do abt 1/2 hr of light stuff. And, I'm going to go back to yoga tomorrow morning. I'm hoping that by pushing myself a bit it will help get the old body reorganzied & going again.
Finally seeing some nice weather here. Man did it seem like a long time coming. As anyone else noticed that mother nature is just really out of sync in so many places around the world. When I watch various weather reports it can be almost scary in a way.
My hubby got himself a really nice sort of delux walker. It folds right up for carrying in the car. Now he's so looking forward to really enjoying our parks english garden & get this, he's even looking forward to going thru our big mall near our place. Now that can make a woman happy, right.
Well I think thats abt it for now. I so appreciate the time my friends take to check out my words & I do so so value all of you.

Hi Kitty,
\" Bless Your Heart \"
MY Thoughts & Prayers Are With You Kitty At This Time.
Love Ya, Barbara
That is a bit unsettling about what you can tolerate after the surgery. I would have thought it would have reversed that, but you know, maybe it will just take some time, as your body gets used to not having that organ anymore, right? Maybe people are commenting on your weight because they think you would feel flattered somehow, but really, most people just don\'t think before they speak LOL. I\'ve been thru enough with lupus to know that hee hee. It is still chilly down here though we had a lovely week of sunshine last week.
I didn\'t know your hubby needed a walker. Is this a new issue? Having the right tools can make all the difference. I had a rollater for my broken ankle and it was wonderful! : ) Hope he likes his new wheels. love and hugs to you my friend.
I hope you get to feeling better with each day! I\'m thinking of you and sending you lots of hugs and healing energy! That is great that you will be getting back into Yoga. It does wonders for the body and soul.
Lots of love to you from me,
P.T. (Gloria)
