  1. Yay for you ... congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. That is one of the best NSVs! That and being able to get into the car in the tight space between cars in the theater parking lot!!!
  3. Lisa -You can take unsed medicine to any pharmacy. That is what I did. Sunshine -My husband brought puzzle magazines, ipod, and a book. He ate outside of my room (I was nauseated the first few days). Good luck!
  4. You should also drink more water. It helps everything -like better skin, eating less, and helps stay you regular. It is a really simple thing you can start doing today.
  5. I will start by saying there is nothing in soda that your body needs. I have on occasion had some coke zero and some coke when I had a migraine. I have even had a jack and coke (prob only three since surgery). I am a year out. I can drink about 1/3 of a can and give the rest to someone else. I can however drink a whole frozen coke. I get about one icee every three months. The key is moderation and do not develop a multiple coke a day habit. I do not believe the carbonation will stretch your stomach.
  6. Best wishes on a speedy recovery! Remember to sip walk rest (repeat).
  7. My sleep apnea is gone ... Yay!
  8. My surgeon uses drains but asked him not to, because I am allergic to plastic. He agreed in my case to omit the drain tube.
  9. Prayers for you tonight and in the upcoming days.
  10. Wonderful accomplishment ... Keep at it!
  11. I suffer with migraines and could not have the RNY because I take lots of different kinds of medicine to prevent and treat the headaches. The medicines would not get into my system properly with the bypass.
  12. I am glad to help anyway I can. I have gotten so very much support from VST. I have aften said that the members here understand in a way no one else does. Hugs to you!
  13. Sip, walk, rest, repeat. Sending healing vibs out to you!
  14. Great news! I am very happy for you!
  15. Congrats! ! ! It took me months also ... but you made it! YAY!!!
  16. Sending good wishes and healing vibes in your direction.
  17. I went to the doctor for migraines , but when the nurse was taking my blood pressure, the cuff didn't pinch me! That is up there with crossing my legs and fitting in a restaurant booth!
  18. NSV= Non scale Victory Crossing your legs again, fitting into public seating -booth, airplane seat, rollercoaster Things like that. Anytime you don't know what we are talking about you should do what you just did and ask.
