Gurlygirlrcr80 95 Posted March 9, 2013 Day 3 is a massive improvement happy girl today! My biggest piece of advise...walk....every hour. No matter what. Wake up at night? Take a lap. Bored of what's on tv? Take a lap. Much better because of it today. 5 sne1709, godinez831, MarinaCC and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gurlygirlrcr80 95 Posted March 9, 2013 My tummy growls when I drink and it settles down. It might be too much air. When u sip, push out air from ur lungs when u swallow...might help... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauriesworld76 20 Posted March 9, 2013 So my boss just called and said that she will not approve for me to have the week of the 25th off. I need to wait until the following week' date=' to schedule my surgery. What a bummer! I really thought that it would happen in March. Oh we'll, I guess one more week doesn't really matter but she makes me mad! I want it done as soon as I can not when she says its ok. I guess if I want my job I will do as she says though. Ugh. So now I need to join the April dates. Sorry.[/quote'] My boss did the same thing to me!!.. I was SOoo upset!!.. I couldn't believe I waited so long to get a date and then I couldn't go .. Original day march 4th... New date March 25!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
