LOLL; you should see those precious little human's rooms!! Its a

lot of running around but kids kinda grow on you.

You hit my idea right on the head about the weight lifting. Slow

steady repetitive movements building strength from the inside out.

Just dont know if I should jump into anything or not until I get

stronger. But maybe that will make me stronger.

I've lost a ton of weight since all this started. I'm still on the

chunky side and have tried to see the weight loss as a silver

lining, so the weight loss is in a sense good. I am considerably

weaker now though; since the surgery; everything is worse since the

surgery.

I have been a grazer for the last few years. I tell people I dont

eat 3 squares but 5 triangles. On a work day, I'll have a boild egg

and a slice of whole wheat toast at 4am, then a banana or slimfast

at 8am, 10am maybe a handful of almonds, chicken noodle soup for

lunch and fat free salteens, with an apple or yogurt. These are

tried and true what I can eat at work without having nausea

increased pain and diarrehea(the worst part since it so immediate).

I have had that same menu everyday at work for over a year.

sometimes I deviate from soup, but not much. At home I kinda work

around what I feed the family, but the last week I have declined to

participate. I have to eat at work or I will not have the energy I

need. Small meals are easier to digest and its really better for

the body anyway.

Your job sounds like it would be interesting. My oldest wants to be

a pathologist, forensics, you know CSI. She has been accepted at

Auburn for next fall, hope I works out for her, if I can bare to see

her go. Snow! Thats great, I have never seen real snow! Have fun,

it should be sunny and in the low 60's tomorrow, so we are going to

build a fire in the yard, roast some oyster, then put hot dogs on a

stick to cook on the fire and even bought marshmellows too.

Thanks again,
