Topic: RE: Low Blood Sugar After RNY

Thanks Cira. Looks like I may be dealing with hypoglycemia. Went to my endocrinologist today and she wants me to wear a microchip under my skin for 3 days which will record the highs and lows. For about 2 months now I've been noticing

Shakiness
Dizziness
Sweating
Hunger
Headache

Not liking this at all and can't wait to get it under control. This, unfortunately, is one of the downsides to RNY.

Topic: RE: X-Post BEFORE AND AFTER PICS

Terri Baded on what you had said before he was my first consult and I loved him. I am getting a few more because I want to see if there is a doctor that can at least be willing to try to get insurance to cover it...

I need a LBL and a BL (sadly with implants I have no glandular tissue left)

I also eventually will need my inner thighs done

Nessa you look fantastic!

Unsolicited recommendation: I've been so happy with my plastic surgeon, Larry Lickstein. I had a circumferential body lift, breast lift, and upper and lower blepharoplasty. If you'd like to check into him, here's the website for contact info:

It's not how fast you go, but that you're moving in the right direction!

Topic: X-Post BEFORE AND AFTER PICS

I don't post here that often any more I hang out mostly on the RNY board but I thought I'd share...

I'm 16 months out and 20 pounds below my doctor's goal and pretty much where I want to be. I am investigating plastic surgery now since I have lots of really bad skin... I am 50 after all....

it's been a good ride. I do have pretty chronic belly pain from gas and bowel issues but there are times I can deal with it... I'd do it again in a heartbeat..

Luckily I only live 2 miles from where I work so my commute is short and sweet. My work never closes..it's a hospital...so I always have to be there.

Let's do these again!

WTF work? Your decision to close early really screws us who come to work early. I hope you stay closed tomorrow!

Topic: RE: Boxing type workout in So MD?

I LOVE our Park and Rec. Thats who Im taking my Zumba thru.

There is a guy up at the Beach, I think its called Glove Up Fitness. He is an ex boxer and was originally in the P&R catalog, but he opened his own place. I tried him, but there wasnt enough bag work and no kicking.

I'll check out the catalog again for the spring :)
