I dunno. I can SEE the difference.... especially in my new uniforms (manager at Hampton saw me in my EL uniform and bought me new ones that fit me much better!!!)

and I get more attention from people around me..... I just dont really look THAT different, and still feel self conscious in my old clothes.... let alone clothes that are smaller.....

But still 40 pounds all together.... that is a lot!!!

That IS a lot - sorry, not so familiar with the pounds so had to convert to grasp how much it is

models her toes... don't they look great!!!!?? Only problem is my legs are so relaxed right now I feel like jelly... not that that's a problem... This woman really gets into what she's doing, she 'almost' gets carried away.. with the light slapping on the calves. feels great though

from what I hear it really is nice!
I have had pedi the time I was in the States and a few years ago but for medical reasons... I don't know, I am having difficulties feeling people working on my nails and I am very ticklish...

stones?
no we use kilograms actually
like miles, feet/foot and inches is sometimes hard, because we use other measurements
so yay for converters

how cute is this one? (it's called bright heart raccoon)

[piglet44 0]

congrats kijo on losing 40 lbs thats awesome
i say that as im sitting here eating a oats&chocolate fiber one granola bar

[inu-kijo 0]

ewww oats. : S

have to admit the onoy reason I have lost so much is because of me being so sick. : /
Not really heathly that is for sure.
after I get better I am going to join a gym close by though.
have annoying trouble spots all women don't want to have.

ooh BG that is cute... not much of a careBEAR though is it???

[inu-kijo 0]

yeah that's not healthy, but I hope that gets better soon!
can I be blunt and ask you if you have more information about the treatment?

we should do some sports together - I am being terribly lazy again and can't force myself to exercise

Lol, it's a care raccoon but still very cute!

it actually taste really good and im getting 35% of daily fiber eating it

[inu-kijo 0]

I don't like oats at all...... : C
I am actually really picky about EVERYTHING (funny cause I don't look picky if you know what I mean!!)
I need to start taking vitamin supplements, cause as Gill pointed out I am missing a LOT of nutrients I should be having everyday........ (and its not like 1 MORE pill will make a difference....)

BG information about what treatment hun?? (sorry....)
I am still doing the same thing since last visit.
I have about 2-3 more days of Steroid treatment left (thank GOD that is almost over...... its soooo awful to take) and then another new pill I have to continue to take. Swelling has improved GREATLY and I am hoping it will stay that way, at least for a bit this time.
I have same DR appointment on next monday, but havent heard anything about the specialist appointment yet. (dunno if this is the information you were asking for??)

i want to start skating again (wish we could skate together) but really wont help. I need some Core exercising.... which I dunno how that is going to work out, since most of that is Aerobics... and are really impact aggressive.... might be too rough on my body still.

I think taking extra vitamins is a good idea (lol, I've started again when I was feeling tired the entire time - finally improving!)

Yes, that's exactly the info I was asking for!
And the insurance thing?

Hey you could rollerskate - I'll go iceskating
you could try an aerobics lesson once and see how that goes- you will be sore in the beginning. My sister's asking me to go take a Zumba class tomorrow and actually I'm not looking forward to it (keeping in mind the sore lower back). Will have to start swimming, but I'm not getting to the point of really doing it

[inu-kijo 0]

Do not want to swim.

Yes I need to purchase a new pair of skates first though. (love skating though!!!!)
always wanted to join a roller Derby. thought that would be cool and right up my alley. but never made the time for it.

havent looked into the insurance yet.... I keep putting it off. Need to take care of that this week though!!!!

[Toulouse 0]

Yeah you told me you hated swimming. I just keep putting that off you know - afraid I'm gonna end up in a group of old people.

I'm afraid of rollerskating, probably because I've never been good at it. The only place where I could skate, was on our court of the house (uhm... how to explain this? we have a private court where our garage is) but it's not even if you see what I mean?

[piglet44 0]

kijo have you thought about water aerobics classes? its just like really classes just easier on the body as your weightless in water.

[inu-kijo 0]

yeah i understand what you mean I have a rec park, and a regular park not too far away from where I live a couple of miles, and I like to skate on the tennis courts, although they don't like you too.

I don't roller blade, I use the quad skates, I like them a lot better, and they are better for your ankles anyways. : D

I have been ice-skating though!! but i don't really much care for it. the blades always get stuck in other people's paths in the ice, and makes everything feel sooooo weird..... like my legs are vibrating.

what are quad skates?. i know what roller blades are are they similar to them?

[inu-kijo 0]

we have talked about this before on here Tammy. I have a really bad fear of water. : D

But! I can walk UP and DOWN stairs almost normally!!!! : D YAY!!!!!!!

and the last couple of days there has been real minimal swelling on the top of my feet, and the calf part, which were the worse before..... (there is still like a hard knot thing in both places..... probably form being swollen so long)
So I am feeling a lot better mentally as well!
Bones are still very tender feeling most of the time though. So I still ahve to be careful. But SUPER happy to be able to pretend to be normal, if only fora little while!!!! ; D

[inu-kijo 0]

just four wheels instead of the blades. : D

[Toulouse 0]

it's not actually a park or something where others can come (it's not big though lol), we have an alleyway and our house is in the back of the street, and we have a little private court where the garage is and after that is our garden (in the two ways of the word, one for relaxing and the other part is where we have our own potatoes & vegetables). If I wanted to go to a park, I would have to take my car and drive to the city where I go to class.

O I used to roller blade and I still have mine somewhere. Even old quad skated that are adjustable to your shoe size. (Like REALLY REALLY old ones)

I love ice skating, it is exhausting, but it has a certain charm (except your feet hurt in the end)

[Toulouse 0]

Lol: this old

(but they're not red, I think we have blue ones)

eek so sorry about your water fear.
sounds like your bones might be fragile are you taking calcium pills r such? a good multivitamin might also help. i usually forget to take my vitamin lol

inu-kijo wrote:

those are just plain old roller stakes silly.
i used to go to the roller rink on weekends when i was a teenager thats where i met my daughters father some 20+ years ago.

[inu-kijo 0]

OMG! BG @ those skates!!!!

those are kind of cool though.... although hate to see what happens to your ankles if you have an awful spill!!!!

: O


Yes Ice-skating is neat I do it every year (we have a hockey rink here they open to the public for ice-skating) just to do it, but it is quite painful on feel and ankles.
I am much more graceful on skates than ice-skating to say the least. : D

[inu-kijo 0]

Yeah I know... but some people think I mean Roller blading, when I mean this kind of skating, so I have gotten used to calling them quads. : D

My bones are feeling a bit weak from the meds I am taking at the moment. I drink TONS of milk, so I dont think I have a calcium deficit,..... probably the only thing i AM getting enough of.
But I know I am getting like no fiber or potassium and other things I need.... so yeah.....

I think they rusted though, have no idea where those are
These are the ones my parents used to skate with, so imagine how old they are!

I think I'm never graceful unless I'm on flat ground (and yet that's also doubtful lol)

You know a quad over here is actually some kind of vehicle?

here in usa also. its a atv -off road type of vehicle. is it same over there?
i am a wee bit balance challenged and at times have hard time staying on feet when just in sneakers so i havent ever tried ice skating. couldnt now with bad back even if i wanted to which i dont thank goodness.

[inu-kijo 0]

good thing about skates, all you need to do is change the bearings, and they are good to go again!!! : D

I didnt know about the quad.... unless its like an ATV kind of thing??

I think it's the same, I noticed it when I googled for 'quad vehicle'
oh I'm sorry to hear that

there used to be a time when I had a really good balance and that was when I was way younger and danced a lot (I used to do jazz dance and we had to know a little of ballet), but now I grew older and am more unbalanced too. You should see me the first time I'm back on ski's

yup it's an ATV : D

[inu-kijo 0]

Whoot for ATVs!!!! : D

I am prolly a little rusty on the skates, but I have always done it, so i would be quick to pick it back up I am sure..... just wish i had a skating partner..... it makes things more fun!!!

[inu-kijo 0]

OMG guys....... So I have this dress that I have had since 10th grade (can't part with it because of personal memories, and because I paid like almost 100 dollars for it (and that was a lot when I paid for it back then!!!)
anyways its this cute little black halter top with flower cut outs on each side.

I just tried it on, I can "ALMOST" zip it all the way up, its obviously a good bit snug, but WOW! I can prolly actually wear this in a month!!! How great would that be?? (not that I would wear it OUT..... waaaaaaaay too much skin showing for my comfort level!!!)

[piglet44 0]

hey do either of u want a gold sticker pack? piglet just went thru her stickers and cashed in her doubles and with what she had sitting there already she could buy 5 gold packs

the pregnant friend I went shopping with - her BF used to have an ATV, but I think he sold it

I think you can pick something like that up in no time! and yeah, finding a partner is hard, think that's why I haven't gone swimming yet but it makes it more fun and makes you go more often

def OMG!!
that would be awesome if you could get it on!

[inu-kijo 0]

I'll have to look for a pic later but you can see the top of the dress there.
But it would be cool to be able to wear it (wore it twice since I have bought it..... its like a special occasion dress.)

But i was bored and decided to play dress up in the back of my closet.

[Toulouse 0]

love that smile and those eyes! pretty girl

I think if I would play dress up I would get frustrated

Cat just scared the hell out of me! The entire black one just came up the stairs and you can't see him because there's no lights on in the hallway, so he was here all of a sudden eyeing me

[inu-kijo 0]

I found another pic, I am uploading.

Eh, I get bored and do weird things some times.
I would really love to go shopping soon, but I have a certain number I am waiting on before i go to spend money.
Bought a couple of shirts that fit me nicely recently. but other than that not really spending any money on clothes.

[inu-kijo 0]

Sorry, only picture I could find of it, and I am smoochin all over some guy!!!

but you can see the cut outs I was talking about.
Sorry the picture is so crappy!!!

[piglet44 0]

ok before i head home as i just got urge to go walk my dogs do either of u want a gold sticker pack?

[Toulouse 0]

At least you do something fun when you get bored!
I got bored last Saturday and really didn't find anything to occupy myself with - I wasn't really in the mood to do something either. And then on Sunday I had too much to do... Weird!

sorry had to email yet again for a groupproject - they're so going to hate me in the end!

[Toulouse 0]

Oh piglet I'm so sorry I forgot to respond - if you can miss one: Snorks would love a gold sticker pack

[inu-kijo 0]

I am good Tammy, thanks for the offer!!!

: D


Aww BG, I always hate working in group, I always end up doing all the work, kudos to you kid!!!
