July Butterflies Master Thread

[1day at a time 2]

I am here hanging in there trying to find a job but still working at the same place with that evil woman. I asked for a half day off friday and it was so nice.

Anyways this week my acid got real bad I woke up twice spitting it up. Not good. Called my Dr office my Dr was on vaca I was told to not eat 2 hrs before I go to sleep and that should help. I found some otc med that is strictly for acid you can take and it feels like it numbs as it goes down it is called Gaviscon in liquid form. It works so fast I have only have used it twice. Once on Friday when everything bothered me I really could not eat anything. I found it at the store on lunch and it made me feel better. Then to be on the safe side I took a dose right before bed and had no problems.

I looked it up on web md and I guess I have bad acid reflux and i am trying to not have anything that they listed that causes the acid except I have coffee I am just cutting it back to a small cup.

So I am trying.Love you all and wish us all good vibes and strong wills to get through this battle of ours.

Well 1:00am am I can't get to sleep I took an ambien 3hrs ago and nothing my head will not stop chatting. I have not really felt good today nausea, headaches, I have had night sweats the last two nights something is not right. I think I have been messing up my stomach with all this acid problems and I need to get the Dr to loosen my band so I can rest my stomach. I sure it it a combo of stress, emotions an other stuff but I have never had acid so bad before and I do not want to take any more stuff for the acid the band needs loosened. Somehow I need to stay home from work in the morning and begged the to work me in I cant take it no more I have been eating sliders and gained weight plus I have been pbing so much even on broth Soup I need HELP

OH Yes girl, Make sure they take a little out. No reason in the world to be so uncomfortable. Stress is way worse when we're tired from lack of sleep. Hope it goes well for you.

Okay everyone back from the LB Dr took 4.5cc out of my band. I am going to be on Prilosec for a while to get my stomach to settle down due to it is most likely irritated under the band from the acid, PBing and so forth. I have 3.3cc in my band like in the begining liquids till Wed. the soft/ mushie then start solids this weekend. I get to start over and this time follow correctly. Oh he was not surprised at the weight gain because of the issues.

I am go to my reg MD shortly cause I have had such a Migraine for two days and have not slept so she can give me a shot of toradol it is the only thing that really works. I might take tomorrow off to so I can get some rest I will keep you posted.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone. No Regrets !!!!

For those that have not found it if you look at the top and glick the are where it says signed in you can go to my settings and change things. Also I looked at each thing to make sure I was not missing anything. I hope this helps people who was trying to figure out the new site.

Well, I finally found our site. I hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving. I did not overeat at the meal, but I have gone on a cracker binge this evening. I have got to stop it because I feel a little reflux coming on. I am not going to Black Friday. I don't need anything, and it is too cold for my bones.

Melissa, I see you found this thread. I hope the rest of the Butterflies find us. Yep, tomorrow starts a new goal for Christmas. We have another month to work on our goal.

[kimaly 57]

Thx Melisa, I found it. It will surely take some gettin use to. Well i've not done that well at resisting, since yesterday I had 2 peices of pumpkin cheese cake and a small peice of pecan pie (I have got to quit baking) Now comes the blasted beating myself up part. Why do I keep repeating the same behavior? A Christmas goal would be nce, I sure didn't hit the Thanksgiving one. New day tomarrow and a new start.

I got the tatoo I was talking about, It's a Butterfly and above it it says Trust Your and under it says journey So maybe when I'm in doubt I can just turn my arm over and remind myself. Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving

Hey gang, if you click on fast reply at the bottom you can change the color and size. I finally found July Butterflies by clicking down the page under "following content" and clicked on topics. All the thread you have commented on come up I don't know where we are on the Home page.

Once again. No change in my weight. I will try again this week. Oh how do you change your signature? I change my ticker, but I don't know where to click for my signature.

[kimaly 57]

I'll try to post one I'm really lost on this new forum.

OK, 1 month until Christmas and I'm gonna try really hard to get back on track. Had such a bad food day yesterday and the guilt is kicking my butt. I've got to stop giving in. I'm gonna lean on ya'll for support and encouragment and the butt kicking I deserve from time to time.
