Hi all,

I was having trouble with my email this weekend and couldn't get on the boards for some reason - I had to register all over again.

So how are all my friends doing? Mystic you sound much better and I am so happy that you are back - two days without you was lonely enough.
Sexy Lexy - where have you been? I haven't even heard from you on my personal email...I hope your having fun but check in once in a while we miss you.
Mrs. C your quiet but I know that you are so busy wrapping up everything for the end of the school year.
Simus, it's good to hear that your feeling better.
Where has bride been? I know that one is getting married this week and the other one is probably tying up all of her loose ends.

So can anyone tell me what OPEN is - I often hear you guys say that you were talking in open but I just can't figure out how to get there - can someone Help me! I tried reading all of the boards and I can't find one that says open.

Thanks yo-yo's - love and blessings to all,
Anxious babe

Hi All!
Sorry to have gone MIA. My best friend got married this past weekend and my liscensure test is next Friday so I have been studying for literally 6 hours a day trying to cover everything. I have not checked the boards or my personal emails in a few days I have been so busy. I have also been interviewing for jobs as the Dr. I was hired by decided to not go though with the private practice. I accepted a job today, I will be working at an outpatient mental health clinic and teaching MD residents a class on something that I am not sure yet. My Mom is moving on Monday and my Dad is going a few weeks later when he finishes up work. Things are CRAZY. I personally am doing ok. Things were a lot easier when my boyfriend was still here but I am glad to know that he will be back in early Aug. I am hanging in there, not getting out as much as I would like but feeling pretty good, with a few down days..no crying spells for a month now so that is good, I also am feeling a lot calmer and less emotional.
Mystic... those tapes the muscle relaxation ones... just type the title in on google and they should come up. I hope you are doing well, sorry to have been such a bad yo yo lately.

Anxious Babe... I am sorry, I am just now getting your personal email and plan on writing back this weekend...hope you are doing well.

Simus.. Sounds like your doing well, hope things just get better and better.

Jlynne...How are you doing... I am so out of the loop with everything... last I knew things were going well for you and your posititve attudide was wonderful.

Trucker... Are you still around and doing well...

Brides... I miss ya'll all this wedding fever going on down south... I am hoping my boyfriend catches a good case of it!

LynneDa...How goes it...did u cut down to 10mg yet? I am down to 5 now and feeling ok..though this is my frist day on 5mg. I am hoping to be off the lex in the next few months and then see if I just need something durining PMS.

Mrs. C, I am sure things are getting crazy finishing school, need any help or recourses?

Em.. Are still around

Mag.. same thing

Has anyone heard from K in forever???? If I left anyone out I am so sorry, my head is going in a 1000000 directions. I love ya'll!!!
Lexy

Mrs. C,
Sorry this is such a delayed email. I did get the info on Atkins...thanks so much... I am still wondering if I want to do it as high chlosterol runs in my family and I am not sure what the higher fat would do to me. Who knows, it would be nice to get back into a tiny tiny size... we will see.
I have heard good things about oil of olay. I just use Chanel make-up... I am a bit of a make up whore, but the lotions and stuff I cannot put on my face because it is sensitive... I mean I to wash my face with bottled water for a while when I went to collge because the water broke my face out... yes I know I'm weird. I very rarely get like a "pimple" but if my face does not like something Ill get a little fine bumps. Oh well, such is life. We are some hot Yo Yos!!!
Love ya,
Lexy

Hey Simus!
Sorry to get back to you so late. Getting my body done is a bunch of different things but in the case of this wedding was getting air brush tanning. If you have never done it I highly reccomend it. I used to tan a lot in college but then worked for a hospital and hospice who had a lot of girls who tanned a lot then got skin cancer which went to the brain. YUCK. So I now use alternative tanning. Airbrush is when a lady litteraly air brushes your skin and makes your really natural even glowing tan.
I have also gotten a body bronzing treatment at at a spa which is where they do all the exfoilation ect for you then "paint" you bronze. It is nice but cost about $80 when air brusing cost about $20.
I have never tried those body wraps that say they take off inches ect but would be willing to try someday when I have the money.
Love ya!
Lexy

Hey Chicka
I have hypoglycemica as well. It is good to eat a lot of protien, I eat some low fat peanut butter in the morning and then something... As a broke grad student I got very friendly with Taco Bell bean burritos and wendy's chilli. Also I quit taking vitamins... especially calcium was really making me depressed/anxious. Its werid how we all react differently to things but giving up the vitamins helped me 100%.
Good luck!
Lexy

Hey Mystic -
I'm glad you called your doctor. Blood tests are in order, it seems. Maybe a visit with a nutritionist after that? Hang in there and hope you have fun with Mel & Ryan!

Luv ya Mystic...you are always there to lift my spirits with your kind words of encouragement.

I just want you to feel better soon and I know that you will - just keep your head up and we will be here for you. It took me a long time but I finally decided to try something and luckily it works for me,so I just take advantage of it and try to help other people like you who are not feeling so good right now.

I know how discouraged you must feel but believe me you will pull out of it and look back at it like I do and say "oh I never thought I was going to feel like myself again" I say it all the time.

I still have my ups and downs especially around my period. I still have to take a xanax around that time. I am currently on 5mg of Lexapro for my anxiety/panic disorder other than that the xanax has been a life saver for me. I never tried anything else and suffered all these years since I was 17 on and off - now 33 I think I finally have it under some control.

I am really scared of meds like you are and I have a very low tolerance for medication so that makes me even more scared, but I was so sick of having panic and anxiety and fearing to do so many things with my family that I finally asked my doctor what I should do... and that's when she prescribed me the Lexapro and believe me it sat in my cabinet for 2 weeks until I finally decided to take it. The first 5 weeks were tough and I thought I would have to live like this forever, but then Lexy introduced me to this board and with the help of all you guys I stuck with it and after the 6th week I started feeling much better, so now here we are 3 months later and still managing to get better.

Hang in there and just know that I am here for you and so is everyone else on this board.

Love,
anxious babe

Thanks mystic for remembering me!!

Ya know, now that you mention the foods we eat affecting the way we feel makes alot of sense to me. I had gestinational diabetes with all of my pregnancies and now I have to watch my blood suger and make sure I eat more protein than carbs in a meal. If I don't watch what I eat I tend to get in a gloomy mood and feel really yucky!! I am trying to lose some weight now and have been eating alot of veggies and drinking TONS of water. I wonder if that has anything to do with my feeling good lately! Hmmmmmm.....

Well, I hope you can find a way ( any way ) to help you feel better (soon).

Hope you had fun with you grandson and have a good weekend!!

Gator

> is there a test for hypoglycemia..think it is just a blood sugar check

I think it is called the "fasting" blood sugar test. The doctor make me take it both times I was preganant. (Ask Mel if she had to do it.) You just fast for 12 hours, I think. Then you go in and then they give you this syrupy pop stuff to drink. Then they check the blood to see how you react to it.

> Hey Simus where ya been girlfriend..How are you feeling???

Doing ok, Mystic. Not where I want to be, but better than I was.

I'm still praying for you. I look forward to "seeing" you greatly improved, by whatever the means. Hang in there until that day.

Simus

Hi Coco,
You really don't have to do a high fat version of Atkins. I don't. The only thing I eat that is considered taboo on other diets is cheese and full fat salad dressing. I eat lots of veggies, eggs, chicken, fish and sugar free chocolates. Gotta have those. I was bad today though and yesterday. Getting a little bit sloppy with obeying the rules. Woops. I still need to loose about 10 but I am having a heard time being faithful. When I put my mind to it, it will happen though. I'm okay with that. Important thing is that I am keeping the pounds off. Good luck to you. Mrs. C
