  1. Surg on Tues, went home Wed! Had no pain pump or morphine. Was given Dilauded every 4 hrs or as needed and ice chips. Sent home with Rx for a big bottle of liquid percocet (still have half). Did a lot of sleeping and lying around. Was back at work in six days (not advised! )
  2. My 57 yr old male neighbor called and told me that I looked like I had lost a lot of weight (among other things). He only saw me down the driveway, INSIDE MY CAR!!! And he didn't know about the surg! It was the first time somebody commented, that didn't know. Yay!!! FINALLY!
  3. Greek yogurt is good on Protein and lite. Seafood. chicken. Im 6 weeks out and I don't get enough Water in either...or protein. I have to make myself drink and I try to make all my meals have good protein but the meals are so small. Its hard.
  4. Thanks y'all! It seems to be pretty popular. I think I'll try it.
  5. Well, I'm not with anybody right now so I have time but I'd like to be back on something. Is this Nuvaring something you change yourself or do you have to go to the OB once a month to get it changed?
  6. I've used the pill since I was 16. That'd be 15 years. I ran out right before surg (July30) and haven't gone back to the OB yet. But I'd like to be on something! I'm wondering what other types of BC y'all like and that work well, but are not pills?? Any suggestions? And if so, why and do you gain weight?
  7. LOL. I get that at work!
  8. This sounds so yum!!! Gotta love football season!
  9. O...m...g...I WANT SOME!!!!
  10. Maybe that's it. And my son was gone for two days. I've been alone. That may have contributed too.
  11. I've had 46g of protein so far today. Had high protein yogurt, a babybel cheese, grilled chkn, an egg, etc. LOL. Its all protein. I just finished dinner and am still under 700 calories for the day so I guess I didn't do too bad. Just an off day, I guess.
  12. I can't seem to stop eating today. For some reason, I can't get full. Granted, I've had less than 400 calories all day but its been multiple low-cal foods. And I'm still not really full! Guess I need to drink more water? Just thinking out loud! Have a cookout to go to tomorrow so I hope this passes!
  13. LOL. I got an industrial piercing today too!
  14. Oh okay. Sorry That...I couldn't say. That's a good question. I'd like to know just outta curiosity! Good luck.
  15. I don't personally know but there was another lady on here that just recently had that prob. She went in for laproscopic and when they went in, they couldn't see her stomach, due to scar tissue. They had to cut her all the way down and do it that way. It seemed to have more pain and def more recovery time.
  16. I pureed the minestrone soup too. It was so good. I also put a frozen chunk of stoufers lasagna in a blender, added spinach leaves and a LITTLE water. It looked nasty but it tasted like LASAGNA!!!!
