What else besides a cork?
I went for my 2 week check-up yesterday (thank you Cathy G. for driving me!) and Brett said I need to drink more fluids and get in more protein. I was down 20.2 lbs. So yesterday I spent the day-drinking-sip-sip drink-sip and more sips. What a difference a day makes cuz today I am-a-running for the commode! lol !! I think I may have over done the fluids a bit. Any of you old enough to remember the commercial of O.J. Simpson running though the Air Port? Well in my case I am jumping over a dog sleeping in the sunshine, Running down the hall trying not to trip on the cat that's fur is standing straight out because she is scared to death (I have not moved this fast in years! grin-grin)
Has this happened to any of you guy's? I am wondering if this is going to be a temporary problem until my body adjusts and it will PASS (pordon the Pun)- Or is I should try something other than a cork?
LOL @ the visual My advice.....embrace the peeeeeee, more in more out. Flushing away the bad stuff!
Glad you were able to up the fluid, that's not easy to do. I carry a bottle with me everywhere now. GREAT job on the weight loss!! Were you just flying all over the place?? On the protein note, I found little 3 oz cans of chicken at Safeway ( Genuardi's ) about 2 oz once they are drained. They have a whopping 20 grams of protein each. I eat those alot as they are quick and easy. A little light mayo and beat the heck out of it and you're good to go!

I have looked for those little cans of Chicken at Giant and the local Wal-mart (not a super Wal-mart) and have only found the 4+ once cans. I did make one the other day and it WAS wonderful. I also made a meat loaf and that was something the family could eat too.
On another note, I had to take all those meds that you are on before my Surgery and I got a major yeast infection. Of course I got one with the meds that I got sent home with from the hospital. My PCP office would not write me out an RX for the yeast infection because they "did not issue" the meds that caused the infection. I called Brett and he faxed the script right to CVS for me and I was feeling better in no time.
Other wise it sounds like you are doing great. You looked wonderful at the meeting! Cant wait to see the changes at the next meeting. Did you get the Ok to drive? I did and even though I didn't need anyting-off to the Wal-mart I went. I thought I would get some walking in too! It's just too cold and windy for me to got outside and walk and its just too expensive for me to WALK inside Wal-mart
