Topic: RE: how have you lost so far
I lost 15 pounds on my preop diet. I weighed at postop day 5 and i was 6 pounds over my surgery day wieght. I figured water weight from IV fluids. Today i was down to 1 pound loss since surgery. Sure hopes it picks up. Can't help but lose weight tho i am only getting about 5oo calories per day.

Topic: RE: Hairy Legs
I looked down this morning and almost couldn't tell my legs from my husbands. I don't really have an excuse as I had lap RNY but I guess I have been focusing on other things. I can't drive yet so I haven't been out of the house.

I am so sorry to hear you are sick. I am not a physician but I would reccommend getting a Neti Pot.  Neti is one of the 6 purification techniques performed prior to practicing yoga as a way of preparing the body for the yoga practice. It has been used for thousands of years.  

You can get the Neti Pot at your local health stores but you can use any clean vessel that would direct the saline solution in your nose.  There are instructions all over the internet but a good basic instruction is at 
http://www.healingdaily.com/exercise/neti-pot.htm   Dont use too much sea salt or it will be unconfortable.  This practice is done as a cleansing and not for just when you get sick.  Your sinus cavities can hold huge amounts of environmental toxins and this practice helps flu**** all out.

You may want to do some research and consult your doctor before doing this.

I said a prayer for you!  Good luck: )  yheraluna

LuAnn,

Bronchitus has been going around my house. My surgery was last Saturday, and I did have a *slight* rattle in my chest, but they did the surgery & I am just fine (so far). I remember feeling terrified they were going to cancel! I said a little prayer for you!
