(((MAG))) I am glad you have an appt very soon with your doc. I it the bariatric surgeon you will be seeing? I think what you are going through with your pouch warrants a discussion with him / her and some follow-up. May I sugest you try to take prilosec (omeprozole ...the gneric works as well is is much cheaper)? I take it daily and it eases my pouch and any burning and pain occuring there. Helps foods sit better.
Sounds like you are doing much better, and for that I am so happy. I do worry about you. Please take good care of yourself. I am so sorry your PT is coming to an end. Perhaps your therapist and you could petition medicare to give you an extension on the PT. Worse they could do is to say no, but maybe you would get a yes.. never hurts to ask.
You hang in there girl, and just keep doing what you are able to do, and as time goes on, that will gradually build up. Water aerobics are a great option for when traditional workouts and exercise are difficult. I'll bet you would meet lots of ladies and new friends doing that.
Have a wonderful day! Now, I am going to enter my update in a sperate post. hugs to you.

Lost 114 lbs. working on getting rid of a recent 10 lb regain...and WILL succeed!
. Thanks for the reply!! Amalia
I ate Go Lean w/ a banana for breakfast and it came right back up. I waited an hour and had 4 ounces of the ff no sugar added yogurt. It sat OK. For lunch I had 2 ounces of the flounder and a few bites of salad. That filled me up. Now having a cottage cheese snack. My poor little pouch has a burning pain which is very usual for me when foods don't set well. Have no idea what I'm going to eat for supper. I see one protein drink if not 2 in my near future.
I've been doing great with my water intake. Very pleased with my self. Also had PT today. Did many new and more strenuous exercises. I'm on Medicare due to my disabilities. I am at my limit so this is my last week of PT for now. They said when I have my knee replaced in November they will write out a special request for more hours. So next week it will be up to me to get all my exercise done without Anthony to keep me in line. Everyone at the clinic is wonderful and I am going to miss them all. Anthony told me today that he is very impressed with the amount of progress I have made. When he first met me he didn't think I would be able to handle the therapy. I'm so glad he didn't tell me that until today. But life goes on. I'll have to go to the local gym and find some new friends to workout with.
Hope everyone is doing well. 2 days until my Dr's appointment. Mag
Well, I slept from 2AM to 3AM and then again from 8AM to 9AM. That's it for sleep.
