Topic: RE: the scale doesn't move
Friday I did up my calories since I started phase 2 of the diet (pureed). for lunch I had 1/4 cup crab dip and 3 f/f saltine squares. For dinner I had a hard boiled egg mashed with a bit of light mayo and mustard and 3 more f/f saltine squares. I still had 61 gms of protein in a drink with about 40 oz of water total for the day. I need to up my water but it is hard. I now keep a bottle at my nightstand. I don't know how many calories I ate but I did pretty much okay with it all. I did feel a little increase of my heartbeat with the egg but unless I ate too fast, that doesnt' make sense to me. oh well.... I am not going to weight myself I say. Lets see how long that lasts.

Topic: RE: the scale doesn't move
My scale has only moved twice since I have been home. RNY 12/22. But, I don't mind. Its not moving up either. I think the inch/weight thing is true too. I put on pair of pants for work yesterday and they were about 2 sizes too big. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my new pouch, so I haven't overly focused on the weight yet. If you are going to the gym that much, I am sure your nexzt drop will be much more significant, so don't get frustrated with it.
Nothing had upset my tummy until yesterday. My doc said he thinks something is stuck on it, and told me to move back to liquids for a few days, and then puree. I am so tired of trying to figure out what I should eat, it actually feels like a relief to do it.
I am also having big trouble with fluids, I am getting more an dmore dehydrated, which makes me more tired, so I don't want to do anything, including drink.
Ugh, this surgery may help me break a food cycle, but I think it created another!
Back to my cup, talk to you all later!

Topic: RE: I Sprung A Leak On My Left Side
My drain was put on my right side.  I had surgery on 12/23 went home on 12/25 and the drain was removed 12/29.  I have had no problems at all where my drain was that is all closed and healing nicely.  The left side is where all the work was done and I had a knot there I thought it was the muscle that was cut into had just swollen.  Little did I know it was all liquid.  I am just glad I am all leaked out now or I hope.  =o)

Topic: RE: Cellulitis?!?!
Well, they took me off the penicillin and put me on sulfa.  Good news is that the infection was not detected in the blood so I don't have to go back in to the hospital (yay!)

The skin finally broke and I think I'm on the way to healing now.  Leave it to me to be a "rule breaker" .... *laugh*

I think I am the slowest loser here. 

I have lost 16 pounds so far and I seem to stall for 5 days and then lose a few pounds.
