  4. I was asked 10 mins of basic questions , how many people in my family, are they supportive, do I eat when I'm bored, why do I want to have the surgery, blah blah blah, the I had to take a 150 questionnaire and we went over the results of that and that was it.

  13. @@chelly12A I got this online : Healthy adults should limit sodium intake to 2,300 milligrams per day. As you can see in my tracker I only got 1351 mg of sodium so well under the limit....and thats just the way I like it!!
  14. @@chelly12A Oh I keep track of my sodium for sure..I posted a look at my daily stats from my "lose it " app up above in the thread, I keep an eye on my sodium, not because I have Bp or sodium problems but because I know it will make me retain water which = weight Gain. In order to keep my sodium levels down I almost always cook my own food from fresh at home that way I know exactly what's going in my food. I do use limited amounts of salt mixed with ms dash's sodium free seasonings. I also like to use fresh herbs, and I have a tendency to eat a lot of seafood which is generally low in sodium.
  15. @@old_rn You should! I know about those scrubs I wear them too! Thank goodness for the draw String ones! I'm considering taking a nursing contract and I haven't put my scrubs on in forever! This should be fun...I will just buy some at my local goodwill If I need any from this point on, they are just too expensive to upgrade constantly!

  20. @@Vikingsfan8178 No, I really don't think so. Sure I could lose weight and sometimes quit a bit but I would always put it back on plus some! I road that roller coaster ride for years, I finally got sick of it and got off! I was always hungry, even after eating a good size meal one hour later I was hungry again. I am fortunate right now that I don't have any hunger and it's the best (oddest) feeling in the world! I have no regrets! I couldn't be happier!
