Shiny - in that case, it may be related to your colectomy. There is something called "dumping syndrome" that people with bowel surgeries experience - they experience it after eating, could cause your symptoms. I'll see what I can find out about how to lessen it.
I saw Catwoman last night, and if there are any women out there who need to get pumped up to break out of their box, it's a good flick to see We'll all be wearing leather pants and strutting around like Halle Berry soon
I could maybe do leather pants at the end of the year - but not sure on a whole cat suit. I definitely won't look like Halle Berry, but I will look good.
I'm back to at least 6 days exercise a week, about 4 days strength training. Leather, here I come!

Boy, did that bring back memories that go way back.
Sounds like its turning out to be a busy (& fun) summer for ya.
I understand too about being resentful for the newly surfaced jealousy. As the ole cliche goes, I never had a jealous bone in my body ... now my bones rattle with it. OM use to be part of the maintenance staff at the school my W works. At my D11's DARE award ceremony this spring a new maintenance guy approached her and put his arm around her as he whispered about a prank they were pulling. Then one day during our vacation when we were home, he showed up at the door asking if she had a pot big enough to catch a woodchuck that found its way into the school. My first thoughts were, "... and how did he come about knowing where she lives?". Last week, she made a pan of bake ziti and brought it in for the "guys" (maintenance staff). This is a first, while most days I work, I come home to frozen dinners. I can't stop the thoughts of "Is looking at a possibly another OM?"
Now this guy is much younger too and has a fiancée. No I don't really believe there anything going on there, but before I would never had even formed the question.
Like you, I don't like the feeling either, but don't know how to make it disappear.
Found your thread to say thank you again for the index card in pocket idea. A simple idea that helped me alot today to keep focused and not have any angry outbursts with my h. cheers starmouse
Hi all - just an update to keep from slipping back to the third page Things are good here. H and S12 just left for a week-long trip to Vietnam. H has a speaking engagement there and S can come along for free, so they are making a vacation out of it. I'm jealous, would have liked to have gone, but when this trip first came up, D13 was too sick for me to consider leaving. H was missing me before he even left.I know they'll have a fabulous adventure
D13 is doing really well, some of the anorexic "thinking" that remained is finally starting to fade away, thank god for Prozac is all I can say.
S17 is loving his job as a boxboy at the grocery store.
And H has finally ordered a new laptop for his business (his old one is so old, it 's running windows 98! One of his colleagues saw it and said "What is this thing, coal-powered?" This means I will inherit the old laptop, which is fine for me for word-processing, and will be a big help to me to get my writing going.
I will miss H this week, but must admit I am looking forward to a week to focus on my own stuff.
