@Starr2015 Good luck! If it isnt better though, your health is most important, so it's best to wait. (Easier said than done, I know. Im very impatient...lol)

No spirometer. At NYU Brooklyn AKA Lutheran tomorrow. Wanted Manhattan campus but my mom would not have an easy time getting to/from. So out of respect, Lutheran it was.

Coughing it all out sucks but i know it is there just thank God it is not showing infection!

Have you both tried liquid acetaminophen? Rite aid carries it here and it’s their store brand.

I found the taste less offensive and obviously it not being a narcotic means it won’t co tribute to Constipation and isn’t addictive. I also doesn’t make you sleepy and dopey (but certainly isn’t as effective for pain as the codeine).

I’m going to look into that. My pain isn’t too bad I’ve been handling it pretty well without any meds. I’ve been doing light stretches to move the gas.

Been using asthma inhaler non stop. I mean when I get stressed I get sick. And between the issues getting lovenox prescribed and other things, ended up being sick and that is no surprise. I cannot sleep. Earache, cough quieted but I am worried, nasal gone away. Praying they dont cancel or postpone. Have to be there latest 6am tomorrow. Fingers crossed and so so anxious!

Woke up, less of a cough. Just ear pain. Got dressed in my Slytherin shirt, capris that have got me through a lot, and flip flops. Trying not to freak.

All those with surgery in the next week GOOD LUCK!

So I'm about halfway through my first day of my pre-op diet. Honestly it hasn't been that bad. But I've disciplined myself to sip my Protein Shake over the course of 2 hours so I don't have too many hunger pains.

I'm starting with the Premier Protein shakes but I find them REALLY sweet. I've been drinking Water after each sip to wash out the taste. I brought some of my regular Protein Powder with me to mix it up so I'll have those this afternoon.

I'll tell you what has really helped is knowing that I'll be out of work for two weeks so this week is all about catching up on work and getting things taken care of. Being busy and under my own pressure certainly helps the time fly and I don't think about food that much.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
