just me and choclahontas...roommates, buddies, my partner in crime...but my right arm is missing...the one who ALWAYS knows where i parked the car, and who tells me how many minutes before my meter runs out...the one who ALWAYS makes things right "don't worry mommy, I will NEVER act like that"...its ok barb, you WILL act like that, but its ok...I can rely on MMB to tell me when I'm wrong, and when I'm right...she has the memory of an elephant and remembers EVERYTHING...but last heard she really likes it so I can relax, I wont need to catch a flight to bring her home...I know she will really grow mentally and emotionally (and physically) over this trip, she will come back really ready for eight grade.
And the straw that stirs the drink...we've spoken twice...she landed safely, but last heard her luggage was missing...I pray that they find it soon, fifteen days without your shit sucks big time!!!
I did the gym, and now choclahontas and I are going to DEEP CLEAN the room, maybe we will even see the floor...tunner spilled juice today, went and got the mop and cleaned it up..."I guess he really is a clean freak" she said...uh yeah, thats why he WONT go in your room...
I went to the GYN...she is a really nice lady, I'm glad that I didnt have to change her when I switched insurance...she said my weight gain and loss (today I'm 185) is purely hormonal. She said that when I skip periods I'm not ovulating and I retain fluid..."12 pounds?"..."yes, even more, depending on how long you miss"...she also said that my high weight is not obesity (like the other doc said) but muscle weight...you gotta love her...
So I am to keep track, and let her know...if I continue to skip (blood test show I'm not in early menopause) then they will do a complete hormonal workup...finally an answer...but this means that when I do go into menopause I'm looking at a huge weight gain so I have to be super careful and probably should start looking at things that help me get rid of the water...I always said I had to be the lowest weight possible to go into menopause...
Fearing for our safety...

Well, cuz see men are stupid :) But seriously, I actually think this is pretty funny. But it's logical, too, the weight and the bloat. I had always been extremely regular... so regular that 3 months to the day after I gave birth to the Sun, my period came back. Even though I was nursing full time--not even pumping. But in my late '30's my cycle went cuckoo.. and that's when i started holding weight.
Hmm. I may need to try whatever you find about shedding water. This last cycle was a monster...
