I am on my 2nd round of Lupron to help reduce menstrual cramps & long periods. So far, it's not working.. My friend said by the third dosage, I should feel the difference.

I'm planning to go cruising in a month, any suggestions on how to survive this?? I don't want to overdo & I plan to do a lot of sightseeing

I usually used airborne or alka seltzer products, which are forbidden. What else can I use to relieve sore throat & coughing ??

I was told we can by the NP, not sure what happens if we swallow ... Hope you're ok..

I too had the hernia repair, and the burps... And the stomach growls.. I try to make them quieter --lol. Thanks for the explanation.

Have you tried the Pure found on bariatriceating.com? It's really good, and I did the next day delivery, and I add it to so much even mashed sweet potato, just make sure I get in the protein.

I had my surgery 3-3-14. I too found it hard to sip,sip, sip. I'm now doing puréed foods, and find that my eyes are still bigger than my stomach. So I have several meals from a can of refried beans & a can of chicken. I still drink one Oh Yeah a day, to make sure I get in the protein...I haven't lost much since my surgery-- is this normal?? I have noticed the difference in my clothes-- I went from a size 20 to 16. On the day of surgery, I weighed 215, at my post op appt, , I was 208.. To date, sine the puréed diet, I'm 209.8... Feeling a bit low about that. I tried to go back to exercise, which I love Zumba--- omg, I almost passed out!! I had to leave class after 15 mins...it was too much, walking isn't my thing, so what else can I do to get in the exercise... Where I work, I walk quite a bit... Any suggestions would be helpful....
