Day 10 - Your Guilty Pleasure

FOOD - more food - and FOOD!!!  I want to say, just kidding - but, I am not.  I love food - I think about food - I savor food - I enjoy food - I crave food.  It's a very difficult problem for an old fat woman - because if you want to control yourself, you have to find foods that are not going to cause you to become an even fatter woman.  You have to figure out what food you can enjoy. You have to find out your limits.

The next guilty pleasure is Diet Coke.  I drink it way more than I should drink it - I even drink it more than water.  It's not that it's delicious - cuz it really doesn't have a lot of flavorful taste - but, it is so dang refreshing!!!

My final guilty pleasure is everything girlie.  I love a facial.  I love a massage.  I love a manicure.  I love a new haircut and color. I love to get my eyebrows waxed and shaped.  I love a pedicure.  If anything, I love my pedicure the very most.  I love to stick my feet in that warm blue water and have my feet scrubbed, my toes buffed, my cuticles cleaned up, my calluses and cracks buffed down and my nails painted - and added with a cute little flower added to the big toe.  There is nothing better than feeling like a girl.  I really didn't become that high maintenance until after George died - until then I really didn't pay much attention to things like that.  But, once it was discovered, I found that I was the truest of all girls.

CoCo's Journey - Answers!! Finally!!!

 Today I finally got answers!!!  I do not have Cirrhosis!!!  I am Pre-Cirrhotic.  Very close to that precipice but still not falling over the edge and falling into a place that I cannot get out of.  I had seen my gastric bypass doctor a while ago - and was given the wrong information.  I think he was looking at the headline and had not read the story.  It's something I'm good at, too.   My doctor explained that when I was overweight, the fat in my body was damaging my liver.  Then I had gastric bypass and that should have helped my fatty liver.  But, then I wasn't able to absorb the calories, so I became malnourished. My liver was not getting the proteins I needed in order to supply my body with the proper nourishment.  Every organ you have needs protein, and it starts in the liver.  So - the malnourishment started to affect my liver.  Leading to the state I'm in now. The thing I need to work on is getting off the diu...

CoCo's Journey - Purpura?? What is that??

 Defnition: Purpura - noun - the appearance of purple or red spots on the skin and mucous membranes caused by bleeding underneath the skin due to small blood vessels bursting.  These spots can range in size from small dots (petechiae) to larger patches (ecchymosis or bruises) and may indicate underlying health issues.   Sadly, when people see my arms, I get many responses and questions.   From how are you doing?  How are you feeling?  OR what is up with your arms???  My BFF literally said, what the hell is wrong with your arms?? Like I had been out in the parking lot bruising myself up intentionally.  And we had just talked about it a couple of weeks before when she saw it. Are they pretty??  No.  But, they truly are the way I know the status of my health.  Between seeing this stuff show up on my arms and my overall general state of strength lets me know if I should be concerned.   Right now, my arms are actually look...

Day 9 - If You Could Have Any Job in the World, What Would it Be?

I was thinking and thinking and thinking about this.  I have had a very long career at a job I love.  I don't always love it, but, for the most part - it's been an awesome job and career.  I always tell people that I want to work at an airline, because I want to have the benefit of flying wherever and whenever I wanted - so if I had thought about it years ago - instead of law enforcement, I probably should have found a job in the travel industry - - but, that didn't work.  And, I fully intend one day to have those flight benefits. But, I am thinking of what I would have loved my career to be.  If I could have chosen the path of my life, I would have chosen to be a stay-at-home mom.  I can't think of a more fulfilling career than to have been more available to my kids and been there more for them.  My kids were raised by a mom who worked away from the home and spent a lot of time away from home.  I worked shift work, so there were days they never...
