She lives about 2 miles from me.  I tried looking her and her DH up in the white pages, no dice.....

I delivered 6 weeks early a 5lb 15oz lil boy:)  After spending 2 months on bed rest in the hospital and Mason spending 11 days in the NICU, we're both home and doing great!  Mason is getting bigger and gaining weight like he should.  Now it's my turn to lose this weight!  It's tough to get back on the band wagon...I CAN do this!

Lots of us getting the DS in the next few weeks! My DS is scheduled first thing Tuesday morning with Dr. Martin. I hope everything went well and that you're recovering quickly! I can't wait to join you!

Topic: RE: Pls say a little prayer for me
Hello Everyone:

The surgery went well!  Dr. Chang and her medical team at Virginia Mason were fantastic. I cannot give enough praises and thank you to all the 10th floor staff members who took care of me.

Now I'm going crazy trying to meet all the protein and liquid requirements for each day for the next two weeks!  Any suggestions?

And did everyone have to do heparin shots at home?

I LOVE Dr Hunter... he is kind, knowlegible, great staff, great support groups (ok so I am a little bias).  You can read my husband and my experience with Dr Hunter on my OH page.  If you look up Dr Hunter on OH and read the comments from his patients... you will see that most patients comment on his kindness.

I had a vit D and A issue... but its cleared up now... I took Vit D capsiles... and Bariatric Advantage with A E K D (or something this).
