I had a fun week full of fun activities: I went to Zumba (dance class) Arobic classes twice this week, Sat. I passed/Kicked football with my family and Sunday I played volleyball with friends. I have felt sooooo good here lately I just hope and pray it continues.
You all have a great week

2 lb loss yeah but over 2 weeks, cuz I forgot to post last week
I take:
am - Thyroid meds, and little blue pill(for acid), and flaxseed oil capsule
early pm- 2 500 mg calcium taken apart and biotin for hair loss
pm - multivitamin, iron and sublingual B complex whi*****ludes B-12
That's it, and that is enough....so much to remember.
My 6 mo labs looked great, cholestoral went from 240 to 145
My liver enzymes are still a little high, but lower, lots lower that presurgery.
Have a wonderful week....Erin
I didn't cuss at the scale this morning. The gain from the weekend must have been hellish sodium 'cause I haven't poo'd a whole lot even though I've been upping my fiber the last few days. (Am afraid it is going to hit me hard tonight or tomorrow!)

CW: 136 (wahoo!) (now I gotta go back and change my ticker AGAIN)
For the vitamin question: 4x a day Optisource chewables, sublingual b-12, B-100 complex (we got the thiamin lecture two months ago at support group ), Magnesium (ditto) and Alpha-Lipoic Acid for supposedly less stinky gas. (not so convinced of the efficacy of that one) Benefiber every morning in my shake, a Vita Splash Fiber Infusion every afternoon and lately in the evening two herbal fiber pill supplements.
My rx have been the same for the last five months: two different bp meds that are 3x a day and 2x a day each, two stomach meds that are 2x a day and 4x a day, synthroid and the all important Prozac of Happiness. Between all the prescriptions and the vitamins it is no wonder I have an ulcer and feel like I'm always popping some d*mn pill.
Labs were drawn at 3 months, 6 months and then will be again at 12 months then yearly for my surgeon. I've been really fatigued recently and think I should see my pcp to have them done again but knowing me I'll prob. put it off. There are other things I need to see him about that I'm also avoiding dealing with. Sheesh, am I turning into a man??? LOL

Vitamins...I take only my multivitamin/multi mineral and chewable calcium citrate/magnesium. The type/brand of multi has everything covered...even as a prenatal, so I don't have to take anything extra. It's a powder that you mix with a small amount of water, then drink. It's designed with wls patients in mind as it is absorbed quickly.
I had my labs drawn at 1 month, 3 month, 6 months, and will have them drawn every 2 months now until the baby is born, just to be sure. All my levels so far have been perfect.

Hi, I'm a bit late with the weigh-in(s) Oops!

Posted LW:182 on 8/6
(174.5 on 9/11; finally hit -100 # later last week)
CW:171.5 (168.5 commando!) can't wait to drop there for "real"
So this week I had a 3 # loss.
Next biggies for me i****ting 166, which is 1/2 my highest (recorded) weight and someday being "overweight"; not obese.
My supplements include 2 multivitamins, biotin, B-12, Vit. A, Vit. C (3) , Vit. D, Caltrate chewables (3), and potassium (2 daily = 4 bananas). My BP pill, Tarka, depleted the potassium and I've been taking 2-3 pills since 12/2006. I received 2 small bags of potassium in a large IV of potassium (chloride?) in the hospital. In my last Lab, I was "low normal" ; next Labs are in October.
So happy that WE are going through this process together! Ro
I take B-12 sublingual in the morning. 2 Centrum Silver Multi-vitamins and 2 Calcium tablets during the day. Before bed I take my Vit C and every other night an Iron tablet.
I had to portpone my 9 month appt due to my surgery, but I am anxious to reshedule soon.
