I'm so sorry to hear about your continued problems, Laurie. I wish I had answers or advise, but I don't. Kathy's pretty much covered it all. You are in my prayers, however. God bless. Hugs, Tracy

Topic: RE: LEG CRAMPS--"CHARLIE HORSES"
I was recently having a conversation about leg cramps with my sister - who is also had WLS. She's 4 years out. When I asked her if she experienced weird leg cramps, she said yes, and that she never had these leg cramp problems until after surgery. Me either. By weird leg cramps - I mean in the front of the leg - above the ankle, below the knee. There doesn't seem to be a muscle or much there to cramp up, but it does, and the pain is worse than any back of the leg cramp. Standing, streching... nothing seems to help. It feel like an anaconda has a grip on your leg and is squeezing the life out of the front of it. All my lab result come back normal - never low in any area. I ate bananas and broccoli for extra potassium, it didn't seem to help. I do not have a doctor appt coming up for a while - but will certainly ask about it and what to do about it.
Good luck with yours!

Wanda,
First of all, let me tell you I struggle with this as well. I joined Weigh****chers in an attempt to get back into control...let me say it is kinda working. I'm 4.4 lbs in 7 weeks....
Anyway, there is an interesting article in the WLS Lifestyles magazine that I just received. It is something about "the healing power of your next meal." Just getting it right one time, puts you on the right path, then you just repeat...I know, easier said than done, but, I'm trying!!!!
