Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Hi everyone, It's been a while since I've posted here. I lurk and read and have followed everyone's posts with great interest. It has been a busy few months with work and other life stresses. I had my surgery Apr 8 04 and have lost about 110 lbs. to date. I am wearing a sz 14 and my health has improved dramatically in terms of diabetes, sleep apnea and blood pressure. I struggle with emotional eating from time to time but the mgb alteration makes controlling myself a whole lot easier. I have a question regarding general health. Since April, I have been on antibiotics a two or three times for sinusitus. Please don't misunderstand, I am not blaming the mgb for my sinuses! I used to get them chronically before also -- just not quite this frequently. Has anyone else experienced bacterial infections out of the usual? I take my vitamins most of the time (sometimes I forget). Are we to continue with 3 times the daily dosage of vitamins " forever " as clos says -- or is this something that we can cut the daily dosage of over time? I take a multi, calcium, flax oil and digestive enzymes. Maybe I should add some vitamin C? I eat very healthy, lean protein first, veggies next, some fruit and almost never eat potatoes or pasta because they fill me up so fast that nothing else fits in the pouch! (I will admit to some Christmas overindulgence, but hopefully that will GO AWAY soon!)
