I'm baaaaaaack!

Well... just got out of the hospital today, glad to report i'm all here! LOL

4 days of corticosteroids did nothing for my vision problems, but arm and legs are a bit better. No idea WHAT the drugs did to my weight... scared to check it out still. I'm told the drugs will keep working for a bit longer, so I'll wait a bit to find out the damage.

Geez, do people EAT all those carbs? Every single plate of food brought to me in the hospital was chock full of either pasta, mashed potatoes and/or rice! I had to perform surgery every time to extract a little protein! At least I wasn't tempted by any of it! LOL

Hello Amalia,

welcome back.  glad to hear you are doing better. 

I understand about the carbs .. everytime i go somewhere there is carbs galore and only a little bit of protein .. I can't go out to eat much.  Anything high in carbs or fat disagrees with my little pouch so I am not tempted by these things either.  Good for you

Much Love

Hi Amalia, Glad you are home from the hospital. Take it easy and be sure to get your rest. We will talk more when I find out about my problem. Hydascan tomorrow for gallbladder and on steroids and Valium for inner ear problem. Nothing too terrible I think.  Let's make a pact to both be healthier for the rest of the year.   Mag  

(((AMALIA))) Welcome back sweet lady! I am so sorry the meds have not helped with the vision disturbances. I hope it will clear up for you over time. I am glad some parts of you benefitted from those meds. Hoping you didn't gain too much from them. I am in your corner lady! You really face some challenges, and are such an inspiration to us all!

Hang in there Amalia, welcome home from the hospital.  Yes, the plates contain lots of carbs.  Still having trouble explaining to Dennis that potato is not a "vegatable" for me.

Just focus on your protein and your weight will stabilize again.  You know the tricks, and I know that you are determined to be successful.  Loads of hugs from this side of the ocean to yours.

Welcome back.  Hope that things normalize for you soon. I am suprised that the hospital wouldnt or didnt offer a WLS diet for you.  I know how their are alot of carbs everywhere.. OMG.  I went to dinner today and ordered a sadwich without the bread and I didnt want the fries.  When it came out to me, the waitress asked " are you sure this is all you want, just like it is".  Yeppers....  thats what I wanted.. LOL

Glad to see you back.
