I'm Back
I've only been on the July 2005 site once and thought I had time to participate regularly but I should have time now. I've completed my masters in pastoral counseling and will graduate on Friday, May 20! It has been a rough three years with two surgeries in the last year. The WLS was on July 1 and then I had a torn rotator cuff that was repaired on Dec. 20. But I am feeling great.
I've lost 78 pounds, down from a size 22 to a size 12. I haven't done well about keeping track of my intake but I'm ready to get back on track! How do others deal with the gas that just won't seem to go away? I am sure it has to do with not eating the right things. Any words of wisdom?

Congrats on your impending graduation.
Your education is something you will never lose and noone can ever take away from you! It's really something to be proud of.
Oooo....sorry to hear about the rotator cuff......I hear that healing process can be a real.......pain (for lack of a better word).
As for the gas........My husband jokes that I haven't let one rip since surgery! It's true (sort of). I don't have that problem AT ALL, so I'm not in a postion to give advice about that. I know that it is a common problem though. Somehow.......I just went the opposite way with it. Geez....I'm ALWAYS the exception to the rule!

Congratulations on the degree!!!
As far as the gas is concerned, for me it is caused by 2 things. Sugar Alcohols, which are used as a sugar substitute in certain items such as sugar free fudgesicles. Also I have a problem with regular milk so I have switched to soy milk.
With the price of gas I wish I could run my car with it. I'd be rich.
Good Luck!
