    RED HEADS question

    Very common... My doc always brings that up and I always request a specific anesthesiologist who is a redhead herself whenever I have surgery. ( we have a tendency to bleed more too)
  7. I took 2.5 weeks . I could of taken longer but I was bored. I needed to get back to my routine and felt well enough.

    A new way to reward without food!

    What a great idea! I love specialty stores like Pier One and we have lots of cute shops downtown. I just bought myself a fun pill bottle container from Vera Bradley instead of the "Altoid" box I was carring around... haha
  10. We all are eating healthy in our household but my husband and kids still like to have some snack choices that aren't "carrots and hummus or a nice apple". I keep a snack cupboard with choices for them. Torrtilla chips and salsa, fat free triskets or wheat thins, cheese its and granolla bars. I make them High protien peanut butter bannana bread and there are so many "healthy cookie recipes on Pintrest... Yogurt Blueberry drop cookes and Oatmeal Applesauce cookies... I make them - they eat them since I am just one month out. Good luck! Oh and if my family is having a nice snack I make myself a cup of International Cafe - Swiss Mocha - Sugar Free Decaf.. Yum

    Jump start?

    Make sure you eat breakfast in the morning which includes some sort of protein -- Greek yogurt, weight smart oatmeal, scrambled eggs... If you have a smart phone try using My Fittness Pal to track your progress. and keep you honest. Cut out all soda and alcohol ... its evil!

    Wine....

    Yes!!! Dr. O'malley! I'm four weeks out this Tuesday. Mine has been wonderful as well! No problems. I'm still on puréed and am looking forward to the next diet menu. How wonderful for you to be at 3 months. I'm loving the exercise I just feel malnourished on the puréed plan lol..

    just starting WLS.

    I use Unjury. You can get sample packs of the different flavors to see if you like it. It's available online and some hospital pharmacies carry it. 20 gms of protein ... Good luck. (Don't over buy ... Your taste changes after surgery sometimes)
