    Self Care

    Number 14, ask for help .... I finally started using this one. It was so hard for me to actually ask for help, yet I was always there whenever anyone else needed help. I finally realised that I too need and deserve help, at times.... Thank you @@Inner Surfer Girl, Great reading xxx
  2. Had such a great day today, and then Dumping happened right after my dinner. Not happy :(

      Thank you! Yes, it is a learning curve. I was so proud of myself last night that I took 30 mins to finish my meal. It was as per food plan, had this before, no issues. I guess I have to pay attention to how long my defrosted food stays in the fridge. No more than 2 days. I had minced beef with cheese sauce and vegetables. Beef looked fine, smelled fine and tasted fine ... I'm only guessing that this was the culprit. So, for now no red meat for me. Maybe it was too fatty. I really don't know ....

      Time will tell. Thank you for your support

      Beef is usually the hardest protein as it really never digests 100%. Give it some time and then try it again. You are welcome for my support. Believe me, I know how important support it and frankly, you've earned my support and respect.

    Drain

    I too had a drain. I had a fair bit of oozing, so the drain collected it all nicely. I'd rather have the inconvenience of the drain, than a serious Fluid build up internally ... Better out than in, Shrek's mantra Had my drain for 3 days, also. Was glad to have it taken out, and did not suffer any complications.

  17. @@CHM, my GP did not want to prescribe the only non-appetite increasing anti-depressant that apparently is the best non addictive sleeping pill ever .... my bariatric psychologist suggested it to me, as sleep is important in recovery, and my hyper-thyroid has been keeping me awake again, for weeks!
