BethFromVA 5 Posted December 30, 2008 I also hope that those of you that have "the crud" are feeling better. Not quite "there" yet, but yes, QUITE a bit better! I don't know if it was the Z-pack or the NetiPot, but because my wanna-be-doctor nurse practitioner doesn't know what she's talking about, I'm inclined to give the NetiPot all the credit. Although I did wake up hacking and coughing at times through the night, I did NOT have the horrible drainage issues after using the pot like I did prior to it. So YAY NETI!

BethFromVA 5 Posted December 30, 2008 I can't believe how good I feel just getting off my booty and exercising again. I plan on going to the gym tonight too. I know... once I would get into the groove of it, it DID feel good. What's so sad is this: I bought all new Richard Simmons workout dvd's (apparently my entire box of videocassettes, most of were my workout ones, never made it here in the move ), and they have been coming in while I've been sick (no working out when I feel like this or I relapse worse). So I really WANT to start my affair with Richard again. But you know when that burning yearning will end? About five minutes after I feel good. :party: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I'm wondering now if they really went in thinking they got lap-bands but got lobotomies instead. I mean, they both start with an L, right? :party: I am on day 5 of the 5 day pouch test and have lost 5 lbs. The 4 I gained over the hollidays and 1 extra....yay me! Very MUCH so yay you!!

BethFromVA 5 Posted December 30, 2008 Where did you get your pot. Is that the thing that you some how pour Water up your nose? That's the one. I got mine at Rite Aid, but it sounds like Walgreens or other drug store, and hubby thinks he saw one at the local grocery store chain. Seems they're easy enough to find. It sounds weird to do it, but I had no problems. It's pretty interesting. And the stuff you put in it seemed to dry me up nicely. Apparently a lot of people use it daily or regularly when they're not sick. I will likely do that since I am prone to upper respitory issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MacMadame 81 Posted December 30, 2008 Crap! When do you guys ever sleep? I got to bed and settled by about 2am. Hey, nude beaches are for everyone regardless of age or weight or size! That's what they believe in Europe! Where did you get your pot. Um, should you really be asking her that out here in public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
