Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum

Oh yea. Since I've been on the hormones, I want to eat eat eat. I am full and cannot eat another thing and I am hungry. This can go on for a couple days at a time. This is different from the famous "head hunger" we are always on about. It's almost like a drive. Then it's gone. I try to drink more or give serious thought to getting a chew toy.

I'm always that way when I'm PMS'g. It's tough! I know how bad it is to overeat so I try to force myself to listen to my softstop. You can really damage your stomach from over packing that upper pouch. I remind myself of that and it helps.

Lately, I've found sipping Water all day helps during that time. We, females with our hormone shifts have to deal with stuff men never have to! It's not fair!

Well ladies, it is the day after Halloween. Hopefully no one hit the left over candy too hard :scared2:

I was wondering if anyone would like to do a Christmas Challenge?? Christmas is 7 weeks from Friday (YIKES!!!!) I am happy to keep track (the original way...sorry the new experiment in record keeping did not work out well at all for the last challenge)

If you want to do one we can do our first weight this coming Friday.

So, is ANYBODY going to meet me Wed. night at Red Robin??:scared2:

Deb,

I can come but I will be a bit late. I can't get there til 8:30ish or so. I am doing a lecture series at the Science Museum. It is called Mini Med School. This is our last week and they are speaking about cancer (I am very interested in this subject due to the issues with my MIL) So, I don't want to miss this.

I am hoping others will be there, and sticking around for awhile. If not, you and I can catch a meal somewhere after my class if you'd like.

Years ago I had a toothbrush that I chewed on. I also used to chew on peach seeds (didn't crack them open, so didn't have to worry about being poisoned). Both seemed to help at the time. I didn't have any candy. I didn't even really want it.

Right now I am sore all over from my ribs to my hips. I can't wait for surgery as I have no idea what is cyst caused and what might be something else. My ribs are sore and sometimes it's like I can feel my band, which I know I can't. I was afraid I'd slipped for a bit, but since I have no symptoms of it, I am pretty sure my ribs are loose again. I see my D.O. on Friday for my pre-op check-up. I will have him pop them back in. Seriously, how can something so tiny mess everything up so thoroughly?

How's the knee coming? I also haven't seen any updates on the perfect new tummy. My mom and my sister are moving back to Denver next summer, so I will have a free place to stay. It would actually be cheaper to fly there and see him than go here. Plus the shopping is better.

Julie: I will meet you at Red Robin on Arapahoe. I will get there earlier, 8ish, in case someone else shows up. Haven't heard word one from anyone else, other than Dee, who is going to be out of town.

Did this site change something? I couldn't get to this page the regular way.:)

I'll meet you and Julie for dinner. Red Robin on Arapahoe is fine, but if somewhere else works better for you two, I can go anywhere. I can be there any time after about 7:30. I'll check this board for info, but you can call my cell if you want, too. 303-669-2350

Hey Deb,

It looks like it will be me, you and Teresa (Laptastic) . Where are you staying? That RR is fairly far for both of us.... is there somewhere closer to where you're staying you would like to go?? (If not, RR will be fine with us.) My cell is 734-395-0548

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Hope you have a great flight.... and NO falling this time. :scared2:

Julie, its a good thing we had that pizza the other night - I have some major restriction now and pizza is not in my future for now! I went from 4 ccs to 6 ccs. Really feeling it!

Thanks again for a fun dinner!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
