Hello Frank, I don't know if have ever contacted each other before, It really
caught my eye about the hippo belly. I only had prednisone for ten days, but
swelled up and I still have a big gut after 29 yrs. I wish I could do some
traveling, but am now a widower in assisted living, just me and my dog.

explain to others somedays it hurts just to get out of bed but we do... then to
go and work out! please.... workout anymore is just getting off the couch and
being able to balance with my walker without falling on my face..

Kim, it's not like we can go out and run around the block or through the woods,
right??? Heck, we can't even tell if we're holding our tummy in or not! We
could try some of that stuff that Oprah is advertising so much now (Acai?)

In response to:
I spent nine weeks in the hospital from Jan. to April in 1981. I haven't heard
anyonetalking about a swollen belly. I was 235 with 42 waist when I got this.
When inthe hospital I swelled so when discharged I was 205 with 60 inch waist.
It stayed like thatfor many weeks, and when it finally went down any nervous
excitement would make it blow up,this went on for over 20 yrs. When it blew up
the band of pain was sometimes nearlyunbearable.Ken in N.M.
Ken, to this day I still have a poofy tummy that I did not have before TM and
sometimes it is worse than others. Each doctor I mentioned it to just shrugged
their shoulders so I didn't give it any more thought. I'm glad you mentioned
it...Jeanne--Forwarded Message Attachment--Date: Fri, 5 Dec 2008 23:46:36

That was my first thought. I would need more information from a reliable
source before I would do something so stupid. If it is a scam, the person is a
low down crumb to pray on a group of people who are very carrying and always
willing to help a fellow TMer
