Thanks for this--it's so nice and detailed. I'm glad for the advice about not exchanging to pesos. Quick question: can you explain a little more about the breath tube to prevent pneumonia? This is the first time I've heard of it.

Thanks for writing this out!

Well since she said everything I was thinking ( and way more great points), just want to say your pics are really pretty. Your style rocks and I can just imagine how great you would look in a pinup style "after" picture!

Yes, the un-flavored protein does have milk in it as it says so on the container. My other protein powders do not have milk, or any lactose in them. I'm doing much better today thank God! Thank you all for your well wishes!

Glad your feeling better today. Take it easy and better days are ahead.

Could be dairy but it could have been the acid from the Tomato soup. Tomatoes have ahigh acidic content and if you are having issues with acid "Stay Away" Good Luck tonight let us know if it gets better.

My weight has not changed in over 2 months but my inches have gone down. I can't figure that one out. My husband says i eat too much. I don't think so. I go back to the doctor in 2 weeks for my 2nd fill. I'll find out what I am doing wrong. One blogger once told me she stayed the same weight for many many months but lost inches. Good luck.

Omg, get off this forum and find that ring!!!

I am not a black woman, but I believe what you are saying transends the color barrier. You are right on all your points and I am sure you are an amazing speaker- would love to hear you. Your view reminded me of a lot of things that I had forgotten or just overlooked for a while. I was lucky, my parents were wondeful and raised me well. But once I started school I was picked on horribly for not having fancy clothes, for not being as thin as others, then for being all out fat and then for glasses, then for being smart- the list goes on. I was an adult before I started to gain self esteem and it was because I over heard someone describe me. The person speaking was a former teacher of mine, he said that girl is as weak as a kitten so timid and shy, yet her dad is one of the most well spoken, repected and like law enforment officers in the county. I was shocked, that was what people thought of me. I made of my mind right then that this kitten was going to grow up into a lioness- and I have and still am. Keep speaking, keep preaching- all of us no matter our race, age, sex we need to hear these things you are saying. You are Awesome and I appreciate this post greatly.

Hi there Ana. I had trouble with Okra. I think because it is so fiberous. I am introducing foods slow and easy and eating very slow and controlled and not drinking during meals. I had a turkey meatball with red marinara and I think the sauce was too acidic for my tummy. Figure my new stomach is learning as we go so I am just really going to introduce new foods slowly and carefully. Congratulations on one month post plication! I think this past month was the hardest part!
