    How about some NSVs!?!?

    I have a funny story. We had a large amount of laundry to do, so I drug my 13yr old daughter to town to get it all done in one shot. I was wearing my go-to black pants and black v-neck tshirt. It kept slipping off of my shoulder. My daughter says, "mom, i can see your bra strap again...go buy a smaller shirt!" I said, "Ohhh, I should go buy some super cute tshirt and take a pic." She blurted out, "OMG, MOM DO NOT START TAKING AND POSTING SELFIES". The entire place started cracking up! I am fitting in everything better, my car, my chairs. It's a wonderful feeling!

    I had horrible restless legs last night. I ended up napping on the bathroom floor with the fan and heater in as well as the blow dryer pointed ar my legs. That was horrible! The main thing that I am not liking this week is that I get the foamies every time I try to eat my soft foods and sometimes with just liquids. I am not able to get all of my water and protein in this week. Hopefully things will get better soon, if not I have a followup appt on Thursday and can address it then. On a good note, I am down 28lbs from my high weight, 24.5 since surgery in march 24th.

    Hi everyone. Hope all is well. Been so so busy. Just checking in: HW 221 SW 214 CW 195 -12.75 INCHES ROUX EN Y 3/24/14 I am having a hard time this week getting in protein and water. This is my soft foods start week ans I get the foamies so am sticking primarily with my soups. 1 slice of ultra thin deli cheese has gone well. Rook some milk of magnesia abiut 5 hours ago when I realized I hadnt had a bm in about 5 days. Still waiting on it to work. Going to go read the lable again to see when I can take another dose.

    I was told no broccoli...something about producing too much gas. My dr only lets us have cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, cream of potato, and plain tomato. Have to strain or pulverize the soups.

    Hi all. Day 8. Am feeling pretty good. Will feel so much better when my hubby doesn't have to pack my wound. I weighed 214 day of surgery (march 24th). I came home on the 26th weighing 224. Tonight I weighed in at 205. I have a barium swallow xray and blood test tomorrow (well I guess today) and then a nutrition class. I am hoping to move from clear to full liquids. Today was a nice day here in the midwest...finally! Was good to open the house up and go for a walk outside. How are the other March 24thers doing?
