While on vacation the last couple of weeks, icecream and milkyways were consumed everyday. During that time, I did not have one night of insomnia nor overwhelming fatigue or horrible pain. I ate more food, indulging in shrimp, lobster, pastries everyday and managed to lose 3 lbs. The weather was perfect... 75-80 each day, and I felt great, nearly "normal."

I am truly grateful for times like this...it is funny how easy it is to take our health for granted until we stop feeling "normal."

A new week, a beginning smilewinkgrin

Hugs, Robin

I started reading your post and thought to myself why would Robin be bragging about eating junk foods and seafoods and about having a great time when I'm here suffering and then it HIT me. I am so selfish Robin I am so sorry. I have been having a harder than usual time but how would you possible know if I don't share. It sounds like you had a lovely time. Again please accept my sincere apologies for even thinking negative thoughts toward you Robin.

Almost sounds like you were on a cruise. I never seen so much food before. I actually didn't gain weight on my cruise. My stomach was on the senstive side. I took it very careful. I got sick one tiime, the winds were 40 mph. It was expensive $9 anti nausea pills from the gift shop. Lol.

You go, girl!  Perhaps you have found the illusive cure!  So happy you enjoyed you're vacation...stock up on those Milky Way Bars in anticipation of that next flare!

Speaking of Milky Ways...they have a new Milky Way called Simply Caramel.  Unfortunately, I bought a bag.  OMG!  They are just the Milky Way caramel covered in chocolate.  Talk about heaven.  When I have one, pain is the furthest from my mind!  yeah

Do you want to send me a bar? I've never had a Milky Way, they don't have them in Canada. We do have Mars bars though. Haha! I had to google it, and Mars bars are the same thing, lol. It's my favourite too :)

Glad you were able to enjoy your vacation, you so deserved it!

Thanks, my friends....wish we all could get together and indulge in some good food, good weather and experiance some time feeling "normal".

Angel, we didn't cruise...only ate like we were on one....flew to Ft. Lauderdale, rented a car and stayed in a few places on the beach between there and Key West. I get seasick sitting on a boat dock, if I'm looking out at the water moving...Sorry that you experianced some nausea, but I know you enjoyed your time :)

Rose, you need not apologize...I'm so sorry you are hurting and re- reading my post it was a bit overboard...I got caught up in the excitement of feeling so good, but it is back to reality time...I'm back home, the weather is 35 degrees, with a mix of rain and snow...the perfect weather for a fibromite, lol. The only consolation is that I did buy a big bag of Milky Ways and eating them as preventitive medicine, lol....wish they could ward off flares forever!
Hope you feel better, my friend!

Donna, you have to bring out an episode of Norah Fairchild...the newbies have not met this funny fibromite...and I miss her and her crazy adventures, too. You have a wonderful gift of cracking us up!!!

Sherrine...I have not tasted the new Caramel Milky Ways, but they sound heavenly...will put them on my grocery list...You know I'll blame you if I put those 3 lbs back :)

Mamanan...I know they sell Mars bars here, but believe it or not...I don't think I ever ate one...now you have me intrigued...guess, I will eat one and find out.

Sending you all virtual Milkyways and hope it takes all pain away :)

Hugs, Robin

I'm so glad you felt well and enjoyed your trip!

Let's see... This week's grocery list:

Milky Ways
Ice Cream (Ben and Jerry's of course; I'm sure the more expensive the better the effect tongue )
Pastries
I don't like seafood, but probably a thick, juicy steak will substitute just fine. smilewinkgrin
