I actually have 2 'emergency' xanax, haven't used them (I had 3) since I flew to a family reunion in Minnesota a few years ago. It made me SO sleepy and drowsy, I hated it. I hate the feeling it gives me, it doesn't calm me down it just feels like I took a handful of sleeping pills. That's why when I've flown since, I don't take anything. If I had valium I'd be ok for things like that. I guess the xanax is for if I get kidnapped, I'll try to grab it on the way out the door lol.

Up and getting ready to start a new week and I got on the scale. So far my week is starting out right. Lost another pound. So right now I'm -2 for the July 5 pound challenge.

Let's hope this week is a better one. Today I will be gone ALL day. I work and than leave for my fill Doc appointment, from there I go meet up with a long time friend of mine that I basically only get to see evey time I have a fill appointment. We spend about 5 hours getting caught up on each other. This will actually be something I need right now. Me time and get things off my chest.

Laura, I've never tried Xanax or anything else like that. I do have my muscle relaxers from when I fell last year and broke my toe and twisted my knee. I take one about once a month. Otherwise a Margi every now and than does me good. LOL.

Everyone have a great day and I'll check in late tonight.

Who is chasing who? Is there a Ice Cream truck involved?

I went to the Dentist today and they used a strawberry toothpaste. Totally disgusting. I still am trying to get that taste out of my mouth. At this point I think it is mind over matter!!! He also told me I needed a crown!!

Bummer!!

Judy, I used it probably 2x a day for 4 days the first week I got it, I never used the full dose since it takes so long to get that much black staining stuff in em lol. Half a dose was enough to make him content, just the first lick made him stop crying immediately. I mixed it in his bottles (probably 1/4th a dose) too before they swapped him to another formula that stopped making him hurt.

Tell Kris to just try it next time Grady is having a crying spell where she can't get him happy.

Hi gals

i'm alive, wanted to check in.

I was given Wellbutrin last week before everything, and was on 1/2 the dose, but was increased to the full dose on Sautrday, my dr left it up to me if i wanted or felt like i needed the full amount. Guess what... I did

I have not slept in 3 days, maybe 5 hrs max since Thursday night, and last thing i ate was a snack wrap from McD's on Friday ... so I know not good, but I couldn't throw up again and now i'm just a mess. But happy news, i lost every ounce of what i gained on the last meds. So i'm back down 12lbs, so that is good. I had 1/2 cup of icecream tonigh, ran to the bathroom and wanted to die, but no throwing up.

I had a very small wine glass of my drink tonight with my mom, but have been trying not to drink.

Anyway, thanks, love ya and miss ya all, i'm doing much better than every imagined.

Wellbutrin is one that has to build in your system for a few weeks before it works, so stick with it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
