Pill Box
I was reloading my two week pill box this morning and couldn't believe the little pile is each compartment. I had to go to my computer to look up my list to see if I had missed something. Just the result of going off five meds since surgery.
So glad I had this life saving surgery!
Six months and three weeks = down 100+ pounds!

Reloading your pill box...funny. I mentioned to my doctor how good it feels to be off all meds. She said, "what! you are on more meds than ever before!" (referring to vitamin/supplements). She then said my cholesterol (all time low well under 200, mind you) could be better and ordered me to stop eating red meat. I said, "are you sure you need to make that kind of order during grilling season?" She was quick to inform me chicken grills well, too. I just love my doctor, damn her :)
My pill container is fuller than ever. Yeah, a lot of it is vitamins, but there is also the turmeric I use for inflammation since I can't take NSAIDS (and it has to be taken daily, it doesn't work if you just take it as needed the way you would NSAIDS), plus the meds for fibromyalgia (diagnosed since my WLS but not related to the WLS). I wish I had fewer pills to take.
