  3. I had to wash with a special soap the night before and morning of and then when I was being "prepped" for surgery they gave me antibacterial wipes (they had warmed them up) and I had to "wash" all over with them. HW 305 SW 292 CW 278 GW 150
  4. Walked 2 miles and 5 min on the elliptical - ok so 5 min doesn't sound like much but it was enough to kick my ass :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 278 GW 150
  5. Thankfully I have Implanon as my bc! It not only has helped with the pain from my PCOS but I haven't had to see Aunt Flo for about 2 years now! :-) I'm sorry you are seeing her again though :-( I'll be prayin for ya!! HW 305 SW 292 CW 278 GW 150
  6. Yes HW 305 SW 292 CW 278 GW 150
  7. I'm on 2 week full liquid 4 week soft foods Then can introduce solids My dr said the reasoning begins the time period for liquids and soft is that your pouch and gut are still trying to heal. He said that if you introduce soft foods too early, your pouch is having to pump harder to "digest" and you risk popping a staple - therefore risk sepsis. I do think it odd though- that there is not a "standard" procedure- it seems as if its each drs personal preference. HW 305 SW 292 CW 279 GW 150
  8. Ooooo that sounds so good right now!!! HW 305 SW 292 CW 279 GW 150

  10. My drs office didn't accept Care Credit- I did however look into one called United Medical credit that would have financed me, but then I got insurance. HW 305 SW 292 CW 279 GW 150
  11. The Muscle Milk is also very good flavor wise! HW 305 SW 292 CW 279 GW 150
  12. Just tried the Muscle Milk Strawberries n Creme today and I have to say YUMMY!! I think this one may be my new fav!! :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 279 GW 150
  13. Surgery Weight 292 Dos 4/12/13 Current Weight 279 :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  14. Yeah- I got in trouble for it :-/ have to stay on liquids for 1 more week then I can move to soft foods. Said if I come off liquids too soon I could pop a staple and that would be very bad :-( so I will obey drs orders this week :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  15. I did not know this...hmmm...thinking I will be increasing my biotin intake HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150

  17. Thanks!! HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  18. Biotin is a great resource to add to your daily routine! I take 5000mcg right now and although I still have to use lotion- I don't use as much or as often. I love the hold bond ultimate healing lotion- it's the best ever! :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  19. Going for my 1 week post-op appointment tomorrow! I can't believe it's been a week already!! Fingers crossed for a good wl amount- according to my scale I'm down 13 pounds- I'm curious to see how close his scale and mine are :-) also hoping I don't get in trouble- I moved myself to the puréed foods and soft foods stage earlier than his schedule- but I've done really well with it! We'll see what he says :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  20. I love the muscle milk- I get the pre-made and the powder :-) my favorite pre-surgery was vanilla - post surgery- chocolate lol. I also make a creamsicle one with the vanilla that's really good :-) HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  21. I'm making a homemade chicken noodle soup with egg noodles. As tired of soup as I am - this soup is delish! HW 305 SW 292 CW 282 GW 150
  22. Ok I get it- y'all are having some great sarcastic fun and or arguments...can we PLEASE move on now?!?! It's getting to be old and some of us are still at an early stage where some of the stuff you're posting really does sound good - but is why many of us are here in the first place. If you don't care to know what people are eating, please either move on to a different thread or just keep reading and make the sarcastic jokes to yourself. Please and thank you and peace out!
