  6. I had tons of meds with us (American prescriptions bottles) and new ones from the doc and pharmacy in Mexico and no problem at all coming back across the border. I did however have the one page prescription from the doc in Mexico. Safe not sorry! I watch Locked Up Abroad.... No thank you!!!
  7. I'm five weeks out from surgery & on my second week of my cycle. So I am guessing this may be normal.
  8. I went back to work 11 days after to a desk job and had no energy the first week. 7 days and a standing job may be more difficult. Good luck

Phentermine Roca labs Medifast Sensa military diet Mayo clinic diet HCG Atkins Soup diet Juice diet And Zumba classes, hot yoga classes, cross fit I've done so much over and over and over - gained it ALL back and was so tired of it!

  15. I'm 12 days out today and I have to say I'm 90% better (back to "normal"). I cannot believe how good I feel - and I'm very thankful!
  16. I had it for a few days after surgery. Yes, be very careful as the gas isn't always gas sometimes it's a little surprise (not fun).

  18. Thank you PhatKat - I'll be thinking of you as well and saying prayers for you. We'll do great. Just have to walk, walk, walk. Leaving the the house now on our way to McCarran.....here come the nerves.
  19. The last two days has been only Clear Liquids (Water, sf sports drinks, sf Jello, etc.) so, I'm sure it's all from liquids and not grub!!! No Protein shakes either....
  20. I'm on day 6 of liquids and my heads feels like a huge throbbing bowling ball. It hurts so much.
