  1. Man these antibiotics are kicking my ass ! Not only do I have the bitter taste like pills all day and night, I feel sick, headache and today I broke out in a rash,,. Dr. said these are all side effects of the meds and that some are less common, like the rash it should go away after treatment is done. I can't even go to the gym I feel so sick! I even had to leave my sons football game early because I felt soo bad. If anyone gets this bacteria be forewarned that its a hell of a treatment!!!
  2. Bought new lingerie....... In a size SMALL !!!!!!!
  3. In the future you may need to change the calcium chews. Most chews are made with calcium bicarbonate which is less absorbable. After RNY they recommend taking a calcium citrate because its absorbed better by the body. Also my Dr. makes me take an extra iron supplant of 29g they come in chewable form as well
  4. So I was diagnosed with H. pylori bacteria overgrowth in my stomach and have a ulcer in my anastomosis area. Dr. Prescribed carafate which I was taking a few weeks now and it was making the pain go away. Since he found the H. Pylori he prescribed 2 antibiotics for the H. Pylori and now I'm constipated since Thurs also since I started taking them I also feel like I'm going to throw up ALL day long and I have a bitter taste in my mouth like the pills ALL day and night. Also now all the sudden since Friday I've been having the bad pains in the middle under my ribs before. Is this normal on the road to recovery from an ulcer and H. Pylori ? Why am I feeling the pain again, could the antibiotics be making the ulcer hurt, and what do I do to fix this constipation... I tried OTC stool softeners and nothing!
  5. I would call your Dr. first thing in the morning to make sure he doesn't want to take a look!
  6. You know u can get something besides the footy tootie, they just subtract the cost of that from what u order. I get those all the time too.. For each family member ! Went the other day and got steak tips with sautéed mushrooms and onions, it also came with pancakes, 2 eggs, hash browns and my husband ate all the food except about 4 steak tips and a bite of mushrooms and onion. Had the coupon and they took $7.50 off the bill to replace the free rooty tooty, so we only paid like $3 !
  7. Grilled New York strip... Well 3oz of it !
  8. I had surgery 3-13-13 and I have gone from about 216 unless you count what I gained in hospital I went up to 234lbs. Now I weigh 137lbs and my goal weight is 120lbs.
  9. She said she's a 42B... So I was saying that even if she looses some boobs and becomes an A they will probably stay more firm because they are smaller
  10. Even if you do go down, more than likely they will still be perky!
  11. Sorry it took soo long for me to reply, I have been having issues with my brain disorder lately and so I haven't felt like taking a pic... But I finally pulled myself somewhat together to take a pic! As far as working out, I try to work out every day except weekends but can't do it when my migraines are acting up and I don't beat myself up about it, I just say maybe I will be able to go tomorrow or the next day!
  12. Had my endoscopy today and all went very well. My dr said there were no strictures or scar tissue but that I did have a huge ulcer below my pouch at the anostomosis (spelling) he put me on two antibiotics and carafate to heal the ulcer and I go back in 2 weeks to see him!
  13. I love them! Soo much better than trying to get down a protein shake! For those of you who do like the The Vitamin Shoppe has boxes on sale for $24.99 with free shipping on orders over $25.
  14. No dinner... My pouch was really acting up today so nothing but liquids. Can't wait till Thursday for my endoscopy to finally find out what's wrong! But a horrible month
  15. Congrats in the twins and soo glad everything is working out !
  16. Just checking up on you to see how you are doing!
  17. I would make an 8 oz shake 3 times a day in the beginning and dropped to 2 when my NUT told me to, now I'm down to 1. As far as syrups go I highly recommend using the ones made with Splenda and NOT using ones made with sugar! They will make you dump and are unhealthy to use after RNY ! Don't fall back into old habits, make new better choices and you will have great success!
  18. Your mind hasn't caught up with your weightloss! It will take time for you to see it! For the longest time I only saw it in pics, but now I can see it in the mirror!
  19. In time you will realize that your cravings are mostly mind games!! Took me a few months but now I don't really crave anything ! Keep up the good work and follow your drs advice on what you should be eating and you will be fine!
  20. Thanks everyone!! Even though there kids it still feels good to know others find me easy on the eyes ; ) I only have 17 lbs till I reach my goal weight of 120lbs. Almost 7 months post op so I am really happy ! I'm working my butt off at the gym trying to tone everything up! I'm not giving up yet, hoping in time most of the sag will tighten up!
  21. Went to pick my son up from school after his football practice, had to find him in the school and all the players told him I can't be his mom that I look to young and hot to be his mom!
  22. All the sudden I have really boney wrists, and I finally got my wedding rings sized from a 7 1/2 down to a 4 1/4 !!!!
