You ladies are too sweet - frankly, I've been really struggling and having that old conversation with myself.....you know the one. "Maybe I'm just meant to be this fat"...."Why is this such a struggle? just eat"... and my personal favorite "DH loves you just the way you are, so there's no pressure to change"....

Ugh. I haven't checked the boards all week - I haven't even exercised, and this is the first time in almost 2 *years* that I've been out of my exercise routine for more than a week, which is kinda scaring me. I have my yearly gyn appointment this week, so I'm going to ask for a full thyroid, hormone,and blood sugar panel, just to be sure things aren't out of whack that way (it's just me and my lack of willpower/strength/whatever) oy, can you tell I've been having a rough time? graemlins/ugh.gif

Anyway, I figured I'd check the boards tonight to see what everyone's up to, and I see this wonderful hello thread - thanks so much, Jilli and Lori. Made me feel really good that you were thinking of me.

Hey, Lori, the RockStar is doing pretty well - he had his second Ive-whatever shot last Wednesday, but the vet said to call for his "next" shot next week. I thought there were only 2 shots? I really feel hustled out the door when I'm there, so I didn't get a straight answer on that one - but do these treatments last "until the hair grows back"??

I'm going to really try this week to get back on track (and really try not to listen to that internal voice that keeps reminding me of how often I've said *that* before) - I think the first step is to post daily again.

Thanks for the hello, ladies! It really helps!

Hi buddy!!!! graemlins/wave.gif

So glad you're ok. I think the doctor's appt is a good idea. You never know when other things are out of wack. I think lot's of us have been struggling this summer. I finally feel back on track after about 6 weeks of real struggle....baby steps smile.gif

Glad Rocky is feeling better. Normally the protocol for that particular thing is either a shot every 2 weeks for 3 treatments, or 3 oral doses 7 days apart. If he's not completely better by that point, I want to hear from you and get you guys to a dermatologist out there!

Hang in there pal, it'll all come together for you. In the meantime, we miss you! Come back to the daily graemlins/sobbing.gif

PS - There's new pics of Bubba Jr and Crystal on my picture trail under the bathroom pics album and Taylor's album.

Chris,

Baby, I do know where you are...and it is not a good place. Just hang in there, going to the doctor isn't such a bad idea. I'm going to gyn on Thursday myself, uggh. I'm so tired of doctors at this point I could gag. I'm here if you ever want to talk, we all are. Your a part of this family here, no matter what your going through!

Hugs to you, Jilli
