As I enter Day 9 of Boost only, today is a day that I have actual hunger pains. Not a nice feeling. What kinds of fluids are you drinking? How are you getting your protein requirement? Just wondering - not being snoopy? Something I think about for next week after surgery! Glad to hear you are feeling not bad - the weakness will slowly decrease I think as you are able to consume more. Congrats and keep up the good work!

I usually use Benadryl but the suryp has to much sugar and the pills I wasn't sure would go down right after surgery

I get itchy reactions all the time from stuff. The best thing I can recommend is benadryl as it really works for me.

Don't scratch... you just aggravate the the scratch -itch cycle...the more you scratch the more histamines are released and you itch more!

use a little otc hydrocortisone cream instead... it will go away in time.

Did anyone have a reaction to the surgical tape? I have a tape outline on me that is itchy as heck! ! It's driving me insane.

Sunday May 5th,

Anyone interested in going this evening? I usually listen to music for 90% of the time I am there (unless doing a class)

I find that if I say I'll meet someone at the gym it really helps me stay on track and get my butt to the gym.

It really felt good. Thanks everyone. I have been maintaining ( not that I want to- I still need to lose!) and this helps me get better into the mode of losing.

I went to Sally Ann yesterday and got a pair of Jone's new york jean capris ( size 10 - I'm usually a 12 but these have a little stretch I guess) a nice top and a Columbia jacket for spring/summer all for 23 bucks! was awesome... I'm totally set for summer now. And florida next week
