Actually. I think Walmart IS in my future today. My daughter and I will be headin' out that way.
But speaking of the "do-over",I do remember when I first got clean, I think it was within two weeks or so (not very long) that people were coming up to me saying how good I looked, what did I do differently, etc. (they knew nothing of my de-tox) And you know, it was great--but then, one has to stop and think---"Boy!!! I must have REALLY looked like dog-meat!!!!!!" LOL Damn!! We should have done before and after photos, like when we redecorate the house......

PS
The worst is OVER!
I have posted several times that I have added a couple of things to Thomas' Recipe. Milk Thistle cleanses the liver and helps it work more effeciantly. Gaba (Aminobutyric Acid) is very much like Valium. It helps slow you down and sleep more naturally. You can get it at GNC for about $15 for 50x500mg.
My Goldens eat everything including celery and lettuce. I'm sure that my older male Golden is my room mate from college reincarnated.

Yes, I added those 2 things to the recipe. I have to lay it all out a count it to make sure I haven't left anything out before I take it. I've even got a little chart. At least I don't have to hide it.
My golden has a bad attitude about salad. She chews it but lets it drop out her mouth. Yuck.
When I said nothing tonight. I didn't mean NOTHING.;-)
We are not superheroes. One week clean is still tough. Try not to be too hard on yourself. If you need some help sleeping use your meds. I dig your will and strength to endure.
have a great day.

Hey girl....I was worried about you yesterday.I must have missed the post about being gone all day.I was afraid that you were talking to all of us that were in there with you and the men in white coats took ya away lol So glad that your doing so well..Way to go!
pixi
LOL! Yeah, you were with me alright. But I was smart enough not to tell. Did you see my post last night about how it went?
Good morning all . . . been up on this day 5 since almost 5:00, but I don't like to post (or even lurk)from home. Doing and feeling well, although I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the work I was able to ignore while living in a fog . . . I suppose it won't get done if I don't get to work.
Good Morning ..just wanted to say that
I know what you mean about letting things go, though my work is at home. I felt a lot more like facing it this morning, Day 6, then yesterday. I listened to messages and answered Email for the first time since day -1, just this morning.
Although one of my cats got me busy night before last by peeing on the laundry. I don't think I was paying enough attention to him. All my animals are slightly dysfunctional. Like their mom, I guess. Except I don't pee in inappropriate places. yet.
Good morning, genius. Just wanted to say that.
you weren't being mean were you?
I didn't mean to sound like an idiot, I just wanted to tell everyone Good Morning..

Whats up guys. I am still up. It is about 6:30.
Last night was the scariest I have dealt with. The pain switched to the left leg. By about 2am my foot/lower leg felt "numb". I have never had it past the knee. So it has been a tough night. The pain still stayed up top. The bottom felt "asleep". So that scared me more than anything. No sleep. just waiting to call my doc this morning.
It hurts like a banchee.
Chezz
Bmac,
We did concider the ER. I would still probably be there if I went. I also don't like dealing with more than one doc.
We debated till about 2am, then she fell asleep. So I just tried to stay in bed with the heat pack.
Chezzz
Sheila, Oh my God, no. Didn't you say yesterday that we should call ourselves geniuses just for being here? I meant to be perky. I should know better. Nice is not my strong point. Sorry.
Oh, oh, this is just awful news. Have you tried telling your doc you will go to ER if he doesn't get you in TODAY?
I am speechless. Anything I can think of seems trite in the face of what you are dealing with.
Thanks for caring about me yesterday.
That's ok, no it wasn't me that said that, but I agree with whoever did. We are pretty damn smart for being here...
Chezz, I am so sorry you had such a bad night..man, there has to be a better way to do this for you. How can your quality of life be good when you hurt so bad??
sheila
My "reg." doc is still out. So I am going to try and talk to the nurse I have dealt with. She is actually the nurse for the A$$ that I have had to deal with before.
I really don't know what is going to happen. He is a *****. He is the one that said, "you may have taken them for pain before, but not now."
I have never even seen the ***** in my whole life. He diagnosed me over the phone!!!!!!
So I diagnosed his A$$ back. So as you can see. I don't get along with his a$$.
It should be interesting.
CheZz
oh no shiela. qol is going to come back. I CANT live like this. I have trooped it out for a week.
I am not an idiot. I need HELP.
Thanks you are right.
chezz
I understand about the ER.I don't use them either.If I were in an accident or an emergency then I would go.But do the right thing,just remember fusion is a very serious surgery.But it will
take care of that siatic pain,believe me.Did I understand your
butt went numb also.That is a sign that the disc or the spine is pressing on the nerve and canal.You will make it though because you are a winner.Everyone reads it in your posts everyday.
I really mean that.Try to stay flat and stay off your butt,don't sit for awhile.That makes it worse and if you do,don't sit with your legs crossed.It puts the nerve in a off alignment.Hang tuff
bmac
I just talkeed to the nurse. well see what happens. i told her the whole situation. she also knows because I tried to only deal with her. but she has to talk to the *****.
No i cant sit i am kneeling now.
