Well I went to the Dr. today about all this nausea and pain and he is changing the way I eat for a week to see if it helps, like having to eat every two hours but small amts. Also gave me a prescription for nausea that I'm picking up tomorrow. He is also running some blood test on me and I have to go back and see him in a week. He says he thinks I'm doing great and I'm down 37 lbs and I'm happy about that, but throwing up and being in pain doesn't make me feel like I'm doing fine.  I also got at B-12 shot today and that's a first for me.Then I went and see the nutritionist and she tells me to go back on full liquids for two weeks and I'm like who am I'm going to listen to and I believe I'm going to try it the doctor's way first. Okay enough about this , its late and need to get in bed. Have to go get and ultrasound done on my legs tomorrow to make sure there are no blood clots and then having the IVC filter taken out next Monday. Have a good night!

If it were me, I would contact the Dr. and let them know of the Nut. suggestion and ask them which way they would like me to proceed.

Congratulations on your PHENOMINAL weight loss. I know it's been hard, but I believe that it will get better and you doing well on the weight loss curve for someone with your BMI, so I hope that provides a silver lining to the clouds.

Thanks Barb and I do have a phone call into the doctor. I don't understand what you mean about my BMI does people usually lose slower if it's over 50?
