Whops, I did 80 today was only supposed to do 75. Oh, well, I think I will do 90 tomorrow and then do my day of rest and jump 100. Mary

I just had smoked salmon this morning from the Hotel's breakfast buffet. Very yummy!

Best of luck

Best of luck

60 done, next month I want to do ab challenge and maintain a certain number of squats. Well I say that now.

I went to Occ, not sure about Mi

I agree waiting was a bit long at OCC, but not as bad as you described. But, I didn't personally experience the other issues. I am sorry you dod

Marriott does

Zinc stuff ... Coldese is one brand

I wasn't required to do it because of my lower BMI, but I did it anyhow. I lost like 6 or 7 lbs. then gained it all back during surgery / IV retention.

I had a cold about that number of days out. I emailedy dr and he told me to take Tylenol Flu. I was better before the surgery. I also took zinc stuff

I was in for 90 min. They also found a hiatal hernia and repaired it

I started today

Count me in on starting the next phase 2 days early. Now, my NUT did say I could start real foods last week, but I just kept eating soft foods for an extra week. I am not sure why, other than it was just easier based on my travel schedule to do the soft foods. I am traveling to Santa Fe, NM this week and I am looking forward to having a few bites of real food at various restaurants. One of my colleagues who knows about my surgery joked that my Santa Fe trip was being "wasted" on me as all of the amazing restaurants. But, heck, I can order a couple of small plates, and taste different things. And, the best news is that my company can pay for my taste testing. So, if you really want to, try one meal with scrambled eggs or canned chicken / tuna with low fat mayo. Mary

No words of wisdom, just wishing you patience because I know I will need it when I hit the stall. Mary

Deloitte does if you are over 35 Bmi with co-morbidities or Bmi over 40

Oh, I am sorry you are having problems. Now that they know hopefully they will resolve soon

No NSAID based meds. Look for Tylenol based meds

Welcome to the losers bench

There is a steak place a few blocks from the hotel. It has a great Soup. I just spooned in the broth. Ok I did suck on the small pieces of avocado too. Mary

Sending positive vibes

I like this idea.

Also remember by just being on here, we are more motivated. Thus, are above the norm

OK, first, I know I shouldn't be complaining as I don't have constipation and and I should be thankful. But, it is the little things that are annoying. Before surgery, I would wake up and go #1 and #2 like clock work. Then, I could get on the scale and know I would be my lightest. Now, I wake up go #1 and no way is #2 happening. But, then I eat and have to go immediately. I wonder why it takes eating to wake up my insides. I feel like I am getting jipped a 1/2 lb by not being my lighest. I know, shut up and be happy that I am not constipated. Mary
