New blog

I started the new blog, but didn't advertise it because I didn't want it to be very public.
It turned into something I didn't expect and I want to follow it to see where it goes. It will be a place I can express myself and my opinions at that particular time, without worrying who's feet I step on.
If it goes public, it may not be so popular. That's OK. I explained in the very first post that I need a place that I can unload my ideas, no matter how crazy, in order to quiet the voices in my head and allow me to think a little more clearly.
My first post was more of a list of rules for the blog, and a series of disclaimers. They seem to be very important in today's world.
So, I hope it stays private and I hope it helps me.

I am not sure I mentioned here, but I decided to make a list of ingredients that are in the WLS for dummies book and start trying the recipes one after another in order to find new things to eat and to regain control over my weight again.

I am having trouble with energy levels, and the surgeon and his team haven't been able to offer any suggestions. I still think it's related to the statin pills I took a few months ago. I felt great up until that point. Now, my fingers and joints ache and I can't play my guitar. I talked about all this before.

So, as I continue to move forward in my life, I hope to be able to do so without falling over from exhaustion.

If you are interested in reading my new blog to see what insane ideas I have, let me know in private and I'll think about aiming you in the right direction. Email:

You and I disagree on politics, but in other respects we agree more than we don't. Anyway, I never heard of stain pills before. I guess I've been pretty lucky. The only medication I take is a diuretic because I have lymphatic edema in my legs and potassium because I lose potassium when I...well, you know! ;) Anyway, I'm sorry that you can't play your guitar because I know that affords you such pleasure. Hopefully your move to FL will give you a new lease on life. If nothing else, the warm weather should help ease those pains.

They're "Statin" drugs. They are supposed to lower the bad cholesterol, and raise the good.
Some people have reactions to them. I'm one of them.
Go to webmd.com and look up Crestor, and read all the side effects and you might begin to understand that for some people the cure is worse than the disease.
I've had high cholesterol my whole life. But, I've lived a very active and good life. If I keep over due to the cholesterol problem, I leave with no regrets, other than the fact that I don't get to fall on top of the person who invented the Statins!
