New med for pinched nerve in neck.....ugh

Sep 06, 2012

Found out new med makes you gain weight. Well I added on 4 lbs. Not happy with this at all. I am already depressed and pissed about the last 8 yrs. at myself. Now after gaining most of  the weight back and now without this med the problems with my neck and arm will not get better but help with the tingling nerves and pain upon trying to sleep at night. I see my WLS surgeon next week and see what I can possibly do about getting this weightloss thing going again. I need to get healthy again and soon. I was hoping to report better news and have been eating more calories than I thought. I wake up hungry and tired. I go to bed tired. Lack of exercising due to the weather and such here I can ride my stationary bike and walk only a small amount of time in the house. I cut out all my soda cravings and but started to drink coffee late nights. My pcp told me to eat more meats and cut out mostly every food item that can make a food dish. But weightloss surgery patients can't just cut out everything but protein...atleast me anyways. Meat has been a nightmare for me. I can chew it but have problems swallowing it. If I do I throw it back up or gag. I feel miserable hours after eating meat. Fish I can stomach quite well though baked. Broccoli is my favorite veggie alone without butter or anything. Protein shakes are getting to be good with the lite grape juice early mornings and late nights. 'Til next post.
