    Ulcers?

    That's absurd Motrin for a hysterectomy, I had mine in April 2013 and dr gave me Percocet. Wth? Definately get a new OB/Gyn. I too have been having pains in my stomach right below the breast bone, feels like pressure and twisting. The pains have been coming and going for over a year now. My bariartic dr kept saying it was a hernia but I switched drs and the new dr feels that it's an ulcer. Trying to get me in with GI dr for a endoscopy ASAP and started me on carafate 4 times a day and nexium twice a day. Only been on it the meds since Halloween but definately feel better. Your symptom sound similar worth getting it checked out.

    Anyone use jawbone's up?

    I have it and love it. It tracks sleep and activity. It's syncs directly to my fitness pal. You can add friends as teamates to encourage you move more. You can set goals such as a goal to walk 10,000 steps a day, it will let you know know how close you came to reaching that goal.

    Jawbone

    It's a fitness band that you wear like a bracelet it tracks your steps and sleep. You can log your workouts. It's gives you a more accurate calorie burned count. You can wear it 24/7 even in Water. I love mine, it's great. It pushes me to hit 10,000 steps daily and I have teammates that encourage me daily.

    Gaining...help

    Are you working out? Focusing on your protein? What is your calorie intake? In order to gain weight you need to take in 3500 calories daily. Call your dr and nutritionist, talk with them.

    Spaghetti

    If you want pasta such as spaghetti, penne, elbow Mac etc. there is a brand called Dreamfields. It is made especially for diabetics. A normal serving of pasta has around 42 g of carbs. This pasta has 5 g net carbs per serving. Tastes just like regular pasta. Enjoy!
