  2. Had a rough day yesterday. As most of you know I recently had cervical spinal fusion via my throat. It has been very hard to eat or drink for 2.5 weeks now. Apparently my heart rate has been very low and I let myself get dehydrated. Well, I stood up yesterday took a step and woke up on the floor. Not a good thing for someone in a neckbrace with 3 new fusions. Ugh! Spent the day in the er getting fluids. Now they want me to see a cardiologist because of my unexplained low heart rate and over 51 age. My heart rate did not improve even after I was rehydrated. Luckily I was wearing my brace and other than being sore, I feel a little better today. I am thankful that I did not really cause a huge problem. Moral of the story, don't let yourself get dehydrated no matter what! And how did your Saturday go!

  4. Well, I have done cardio 5 days in a row now. Down 2lbs this week and feeling pretty darn proud of myself. Trying to build that exercise habit and make it consistent everyday is not easy! Before I was exercising 3 times per week and I seemed to slow way down on weight loss.

      Weight loss is a tricky monster HalloweenBaby. I know people who dont eat right or exercise and they lose quite a bit rather quickly others don't. I've noticed for me anyways that make caloric intake needs to be around the 1000-1200 range and I need at least 48 oz of water and 80-100 grams of protein. Try to keep your chin up and not get discouraged......I know that's not an easy task cuz I fight with that every single day. Any loss is better than any gain is what I keep telling myself. I didn't get fat overnight and I won't get skinny overnight.

      built2livenotexist........if you take away my pre diet loss and my 1st week loss when I was on clear liquids, Ive only lost 41 in 11 weeks.....thats a little over 3.5 lbs a week....which still isnt bad but it isnt flying off me either. I should go back to an all liquid diet......but my NUT would have a cardiac arrest!! LOL

  23. First post-op nutritionist meeting. She wants me closer to 80 grams of protein. This is the point where I stomp my feet like a kid and pout, "But it's HARD!", lol

      New Whey makes a liquid protein that you can add to your favorite drink that has 42 grams of protein. They come in many different flavors!!

      Project me is right! Every one of your topics were answered....maybe not to your suiting. But this is a forum and support group. Everyone is different in our journey and all we can do is support, give praise and congrats on your posted accomplishments. There are other tools on the internet to supply you with information and your insurance company can provide you with all the pertinent information that you need. I hate to see you leave as I see you have made good progress so far and I personally enjoy seeing it. Good luck in your journey!!
