2 weeks out

Mar 23, 2009

Hi Everyone!

Today I am 2 weeks out and doing great. I was having problems with the dreadful word "Constipation" for the first week out, but I called the nurse at my Dr.'s office and asked what to do about it, and she said to go get some Benefiber. So I did, and that wasnt working. I called back and asked for more suggestions, she said get Milk of Magnesia. I had some last nite, and all problems are solved. And also, I found out that the meds I was on previously to WLS, Causes constipation too, so thats why Im having problems with that. Other than that, im fantastic... No pain at all anymore when I cough or sneeze or hiccup. I am still trying to figure out how in the world I can get all my water in. I have done it only 2 times and it was because it was a very hot day and I was really thirsty. I have to get 64 oz. in a day, and that helps flush me out, so thats very important that I do that. I am very excited of how things are going, and as of my first weigh in at Dr. Bakers office I have lost 32 lbs. Thanks everyone for all the love and support.....
