Topic: RE: Pic of me on opera night

Heck, I can't remember. I think I just copied and pasted. Try and see if that works.

Topic: RE: I'm going to start wearing a hair net . . .

I need a hair net too.

What's depressing for me is looking at the hairbrush. I will clean it and then brush my hair. It will look like I haven't cleaned it in weeks. And there's always hair all over my clothes.

My daughter was looking at me the other day and started picking hair off my shirt. She said, Momma, that cat just shed all over your shirt. LOL, I said it sure did, baby.

Topic: RE: Liquor..alcohol...have you done it yet?

I haven't tried alcohol yet. I even skip the wine at Communion. Of course, I wasn't a big drinker before the surgery either.

In college...yes, I drank alot, but after I met my husband I pretty much stopped. And since my husband doesn't drink, we don't have alcohol in the house. I take that back...we do have some cooking wine, lol. But I was never a wine drinker.

My family drinks Bailey's at Christmas time, so I might try some of that, but I won't miss it if I don't.

Topic: RE: Weird foody things happening..or not.

Definitely sugar alcohols with the Werther's. Usually I see it written on the SF candies about not eating to many because it will cause laxative effects or something like that.

I don't know about the parfait. People dump on different things at different times.

I think it could have been sugar alcohol... I eat a protein bar that had <1g of sugar alcohol and I was in the restroom all day... LOL by the good side like you said I let go of 2 1/2 LBS!! LOL But that wasn't a good thing my GUTS were soar for 3 days... I think your food tolerances could not eat the Werthers... Event the sugar free syrups that manny of us use in our protein shakes have so sugar alcohol.. so be careful with htose too.
I hope you feel better..

Topic: RE: Liquor..alcohol...have you done it yet?

I'm a wine drinker before surgery.. So I did a test run this weekend since i have a holiday party coming up the first weekend in December, i sipped on a glass with only I say with about 3/4 sip over 30 mins.. I was FEELING FINE LIKE THE YEAR 1999!! I'm glad I tried at home first.. I probably been dancing on my home girl's table's... LOL but I didn't get any bad guts sounds or any indications of DUMPING SYNDROME!! " I'm just a really CHEAP DATE NOW!!" LOL But my Doc did say it was okay since I was over 3 mon. out, but he said in moderation(3/4 or less) alcoholic drinks have a HUGE carb intake, that's the only down-side!!
