Update......

I am still having problems with ADD- I don't seem to be able to stick with anything very long.... I would like to eat something that didn't give me indignestion...(sp?) When I went to the Doc. a mnth after surgery I had lost 62 pds.  Constipation is so much fun..... If I could have anything that is on the bad list it would have to be a Diet Coke.........I hadn't drunk one in over 2 mnths before surgery but i'm still Jonesing for one...... I'm still looking for help with my Lymphedema......it iis very hard for me to leave the house....so,...I'm kinda trapped. Still trying to get all my water and protein in...... Hope everyone is doing fine......I'm still working on everything.... Keith

Hi Keith, I'm Barb, on the loss of the 62 lbs. that is great news.   Is it the caffine that you are craving? Maybe try some decaf tea with some devinci surup in it. There is a list of different flavor on the web on gourmet.com search. But I get mine at Wal-mart, and put it in the coffee or tea. I don't drink cold drink anymore. As for the lymphedema I was watching  one the health channels the  other day and they suggested that messaging with warm oils and tight wraps are the best ways.  I am not sure how many time per day or wks. You might want to check with your dr.  Hugs Barb

I don't have much advice ...but I just wanted to say congratulations on you loss! That is really amazing! Keep up the great work. Keep working on that protein and water... you'll eventually get it all in and then it will be like second nature to you.

Take care!

 

Hey man, let me tell you...I am 10 months out and I, please don't anyone flame me for this I already know!!!, slipped and have some carbonation last night at a Halloween party...been jonesing for this so badly...well, that killed all cravings for good.  Made me so gassy and pained in the pouch I will never touch it again!

I really dig the low carb Fuze...has a fizziness from flavor that is almost like carbonation...might want to give it a try!

Hey Flip ! 62 lbs in a month is just amazing! Have you tried taking any Milk of Magnesia for the constipation? If not you should, it works! Keep up the good work!!
