Revision
Well band slipped....again. Not sure how he fixed it but he pulled the slip where it needs to go and sutured it. Hopefully a slip won't happen again At 5'5" and 113 lbs was a problem....combined with being very dehydrated at not being able to keep anything down and about passing out at Dr's office....

Drink with straws....
I have not heard of this before but it looks like it would work like a straw.... Sounds like a good idea. I will have to talk to my dr about it.

Drink with straws....
Dr told me to not use straws but I'm just more comfortable using a straw as opposed to sipping. He said u get more air using a straw. Anybody else prefer straws to sipping....

Rice cooker steamer
I can tolerate rice u can also make other grains too I can make rice pretty good but the other grains not so much... I Had a rice cooker steamer about 15 yrs ago and did well with it. I still have it unfortunately it no longer works properly. I also want one I can delay cook times that would be awesome bc I work till 7 sometimes 8 at night. It would be super when I came home wouldn't have to cook.

Isolate Protien drink
I also like the fact that it has 40 grams of protein almost half of daily requirement. It's been hard for me to get protein in since I don't eat much meat.... I like the coconut water called cocotein very tasty
