  1. Loved this story..was totally descriptive and funny.
  2. Thank u! I scared my husband when I come panting in the house screaming " this bitch is back" lol he's so calm and quiet and dry lol I'm the lively one of the bunch. In my mind I just pretty much single handedly took on the world lol small steps but felt good
  3. I love the pinwheels it's my fav to so so far. I wish I'd had someone to show me more. I'm learning as I go. I want to know so much more.
  4. I had to share!! I ran last yr and managed to finish 2 of the local 5ks. I never did better than 45min completing. Today I started back running. I managed to make a mile in 10.30 min!! I never beat over 14 min a mile previously. Running is O much easier being lighter. Tomorrow makes 11weeks post op and I am so stinking happy I did this!!! This mama WILL get her groove back!!!
  5. This is the baby quilt. I'm still learning. It's a pinwheel quilt.
  6. I go the 26th to see mine. I'm so nervous. He's totally hot which makes it worse lol I always get anxious when it's time to go see him. Now I'm anxious that I am not losing fast enough. He told me last time I was well on track. I guess in my boring life that's about the most excitement I get. I also finished my baby quilt for my friend if u guys want to see. I get nervous about that too cause I'm still learning but I think it turned it ok.
  7. 1st day since early out I didn't get my protein and fluids in. I kinda just gave up after a crappy afternoon and bouts of nausea. Strawberries were my supper. Start all fresh tomorrow. Trying to get comfy to maybe sleep tonight but I swear I feel and hear a war going on in my belly. It may sound crazy but I swear I feel an hear gurgling from my old belly off to the side on the left and it doesn't sound too happy.
  8. I started when I went home but so many variations with what the dr'a want we see on here. My nutritionist said Flintstones complete 2 a day chewables. The complete she said have the Iron and I wouldn't need to take straight iron then unless by some chance layer I needed to as indicated by my labs. I keep thinking I'm gonna graduate to adult ones soon.
  9. U need to call your surgeon ASAP. Water only for any length of time is dangerous after rny. There is the possibility of some nutrient deficiencies causing permanent damage. I'd run not walk back into my surgeons office and get checked out. Good luck.
  10. Ok I do feel better about it. It kinda startled me when I realized I was getting more in. I know eventually its gonna be more room for food. I want it to stay as small as possible.
  11. Hope u feel better! I've learned it takes a act of congress to make me go so I know how it sucks so bad!! I'm doing a bit better on daily prunes. Nothing else seems to work. Hope u get some relief soon.
  12. I don't know why I am so darn stubborn. I know chicken doesn't settle well with me and I don't even like it anymore but trying to play by the rules I went and grabbed some grilled chicken off a wrap at McDonald's. I was totally unprepared for my case to case visits today I was sent on by my hospice company as usually I have protein bars etc. I spent 20min in severe nearly screaming pain feeling like I couldn't catch my breath. I apparently didn't chew the chicken correctly and ate too much possibly too. I have now vomited in the worse parts of town with homeless people looking on. That is totally awful and humiliating at the same time. I finally feel relief but loads of pressure still. Idk if I will ever ever ever try chicken again.
  13. So I guess my 4 oz I am now pretty much able to get in isn't a crazy amount. I was panicked thinking I'm stretching out my pouch cause I barely could get in 2-3 tbsp before.
  14. Well..I'm glad I'm not the only one who tries to find the funny side to the saggy.
  15. How much good are u guys averaging at one sitting? I kinda feel freaked out. I usually have this signal where I know I'm full and if I take 1 bite over it I'm in pain. Lately I've been eating a bit more. Scares me. I know will expand some through time but I'm eating more than I was before. I was barely making 2 oz and now it's feeling like alot more. Just wanted to see where y'all were in amounts. I'm estimating I'm taking in about 4 oz
  16. Getting asked by a friend have I always had dimples!! Of course I have but my face has just been too chubby to see them before.
