Fatty McFatster

I was able to get outside on this beautiful day and go for a short walk. Haven't been able to walk for a week and a half.
I couldn't walk far because the stent causes pain, but thankfully they are going to take it out on Tuesday.

I urinated 7 times overnight and when I weighed this morning I had already lost 10 pounds of Water weight.
I have since urinated about 5 more times today and have lost another 5 pounds of Water weight.
So, thankfully, the diuretic is working as I have lost 15 pounds of water weight in only 18 hours. Yay!!!!

I was actually incorrect about the Biggest Loser prize money (hey, I was drugged up...lol...so it wasn't 1,000 dollars), but my wife won 1st place for % weight loss and tied for 1st place for inches lost. Yay!!! So proud of @@Fat2Phat2016

@@Fat2Phat2016 and @@Fatty McFatster,
You're proud of each other for your challenge results and I'm proud of both of you. You two are still my best date in ages. If I ever get to your part of the world, I hope we can say "Hey!" Same holds if y'all get to my part of the world.
FMcF, I'm glad you're coming along.

I've lost another 2 pounds this morning. Now I'm just 6.4 pounds away from where I was last week.

Oh my!! That would have freaked me out. Glad you were/are ok!!

All that rapid drop in electrolytes. Keep eating [emoji5]
Rest well and laugh. It's April fools. There's some good stuff on the inter webs.

Thank you. I know I couldn't get through any of this without you. You are my rock. I know you're going through a lot as well and I'm here for you always.

I've lost 2 more pounds of Water weight. It's definitely slowed down, but happy to see it still coming off.
Unfortunately, I feel like death today. Everything hurts (i.e. Head, legs, stomach, kidney, ankles, etc). I'm also really nauseous and lightheaded. I'm guessing my body is just tired from all it's been through over the last week.
Think I'm just going to rest today and catch up on sleep.
Thanks as always to all of you for looking after me.

I think you are 100% correct. I now believe my kidneys stopped working at some point between the large kidney stone being on the move, kidney stone surgery, and stent placement and they didn't start working again until the diuretic.

@@Fatty McFatster, dear friend, the $1,000 would be a nice measure of success and a lovely gift for F2P, but what matters most is that everything will straighten out. You'll ace the next challenge.

I have had to take a diuretic for several years for edema. After surgery I was off it for a month till I could show I was taking in enough Water. When I went back on it I lost almost 8 pounds. not nearly as dramatic as you - but I had a couple of days of tiredness and lightheadedness. rest when you need to rest.

Quick (now!!) funny story- years ago I'm sitting and notice a couple of droplets on my foot which was bare. Then I felt another droplet hit said foot. Thinking I spilled something, I'm checking around. Nothing. Now I look at the top of my foot and it's wet. Thinking I'm crazy, I try and ignore it. Fast forward the next day- same thing. Except there was a line of Water going down the front of my lower leg. Huh?? Started about midway up. I just stare at it until I noticed the liquid coming from my skin!! I had literally sprung a leak!!!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. ( I laugh now). I was so bloated from all my meds that I sprung a flipping leak. Went to dr immediately. He gave me a diuretic and it stopped bit darned if I wasn't completely freaked by it.

Hey sweetie. So sorry I haven't posted before now. I am so sorry you're going through this. Especially after all the work you've put in to be the healthiest you possible. It seems like we've been dealt a bad hand as of late, but we have each other to help get through anything life throws our way!!
I pray that you are on the up swing of this thing but I know that it will still take a while for you to be 100% after all your body has been through. I love and support you no matter what!
I am glad that the Water pill is helping. I am also glad nothing was wrong with your heart. I can't even imagine a day without you. So let's get you fixed up and back out walking asap!
Love you!!!

Good idea to rest. If you still feel that crappy this weekend I would suggest seeing your PCP on Monday. You can never be too careful. Obviously if you feel worse go to the ER! Glad you are still losing the Water weight.
