Don't get the Flu !!!!!!!

By John337

· 239 views

I've been maintaining for the last couple of months. However, just after Thanksgiving I got the flu. Went to the Doctor and was advised since it has been 36 hours with the flu, the medication would not work other to shorten my time that I'm sick by one day so he didn't give it to me.

 

Well - I was down for the count for 7 days. Lost 8-9 lbs in one week. Becaquse I wasn't drinking fluids ( never mind food) I picked up a bladder infection that almost put me in the hospital.

 

Went to my LB Doc and had an unfill so I can gain back the weight I lost from being sick. ( Got down to 214....but really looked bad). :rolleyes:

 

Gained back my weight and will have a fill on 1/14/2010 to maintain. What a month......

 

Went thru the holidays without one cocktail.........Still on antibiotics for the bladder infection.

 

That's OK - Still happy to be 220-223..........:mad:
