Catracks 865 Posted August 28, 2012 I found out about hydration an blood. For my 6 month labs they tested for EVERYTHING. They had to fill 16 tubes. I was in a hurry and didn't drink enough Water that evening or that morning. My vein are tiny to begin with and they could barely find a vein. Glad you are feeling so well. I was one of the ones lucky enough to bounced back quickly from surgery. Glad you are too. You have a fantastic attitude and I am convinced that it makes all the difference. Do keep in mind that stalls will happen. Don't sweat it when they do. It's just your body readjusting. You always lose inches even when the scale is not moving. Once your body is done moving things around, the weight will drop again. It's just something that has to happen. Great things are coming your way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
