Back from vacation



Recommended Posts

We were on the beach for a week and this is the first time I have ever lost weight on vacation. I stayed on plan good. I tried to eat a Prawn Cocktail one night but they were so big, I was stuffed after eating only 3 prawn! Some days, especially travel days, it was hard to get all my Water in so I started retaining Fluid. My body decided to release the fluid on my trip home yesterday!! LOL

We had a full kitchen there so I cooked for my husband and I had shakes. My only down fall I think was the wonderful fresh fruit.....I probably ate too much. But I did good and had fun

So glad you had a good time - I've been researching vacation places, I'm hoping to be able to go somewhere fun in the fall with the hubby. Congratulations on staying on plan. It's not always easy but very rewarding when you do. Good to see you back on the boards, love your smile.

Sounds like a great time! I have a family vacation in Belize scheduled for August. Everything's paid for and I'm just praying my surgery goes well so that I feel great while we're there (8 weeks out from surgery). We'll be in a villa on the beach, so we'll have a kitchen and if worst comes to worst, I'll survive on Protein bars. :)

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
