Just got back from Moncton

I just got back from seeing Dr. B. Got weighed and on the Dumont scale I weigh 198 fully clothed. This am on my scale stark naked (don't try to picture it) I weighed 197.4 so my scale is pretty accurate.

I told Dr. B. about my back pain and that Tylenol was not hepling at all. He was very understanding and perscribed Prilosec for me. Them I asked him if there was a cheaper version of that medication and he said there was and perscribed it for me. So now I will be able to take my Ibuprofen for my back pain and get some relief.

I got a chance to sit and talk to Lise for a while. We went over my food intake and my eating habits. I think I'm doing pretty well except of course for my water intake. I must try to do better. She reminded me that I am still in the honeymoon phase of my RnY and in a while I will lose this so I'd better be eating right befor the phase is over. I told Lise that I try to eat 1200 calories a day and she said that was fine. I was half afraid she would say it was too much but no.

While I was there I asked Lise how much I should weigh and she got a little wheel thing out and did a calculation andd said around 160.  I am so happy about this.

I feel so much better for having gone up to Moncton to see the Dumont crew. I should have gone sooner but kept putting it off. Don't know why.

I may not "love" my RnY yet but I'm pretty fond of it.

You are doing so well. I am not so fond of my band lately- I remember reading about flying and the band.....I think I read the band expands a bite. That may be the source of my problem.

Yes Charline, I too seem to remember Ann (I think) posting about this awhile back. What's the matter with Antonio band ero? How is he acting up.

Are you still avoiding sliders and sweets?

I don't know how you guys do it.
 
Do you think a trip to Moncton to have a session with the Dumont crew would help? Sometimes it helps to get some reinforcement.
