glad your dr is working with you, and that you are feeling, at least a little,

better...

OK...so I think I'm starting to feel better. Not great, but better.

The pain in my left side is not as bad as it was and I did have a

brief visit to the bathroom this morning. I'm going to the doctor

AGAIN this afternoon. He really thinks I'm dealing with irritable

bowel syndrome and that indeed it is gas that has been trapped in

the " old tummy " . He got me started on some stool softeners and a

prescription for something called Bentyl...anybody ever hear of

it....it's suppose to, I guess, relax the bowels. I don't know. I

just know that I do seem to be feeling a bit better today and that is

what I'm sticking with.

I know I'm never going to be able to catch up on all that's been

going on here for the past couple of weeks, so I'm not even going to

try. So for everyone who had good things happening, CONGRATULATIONS,

I'm so happy for you. And for anyone who's been stressed or sad, I

send you my SYMPATHIES and my thoughts are with you. OK, so that was

a pretty pathetic attempt at sincere thoughts, but what the heck. I

tried. LOL

Today is a pot luck at work. I brought meatballs. Of course I

probably won't be able to eat them or much of anything else as

nothing has really been agreeing with me the past week. I think I've

done more barfing this week than I did at the beginning of my

surgery. You'd think I'd have lost a ton of weight wouldn't ya. But

nooooooooooooooooo, I'm so " backed up " that the scale isn't moving.

And I haven't been getting to the gym and have basically been a lump.

And Christmas is Saturday and I'm not done shopping yet. Looks like

I'll be doing what I hate doing most. Shopping on Christmas Eve. Oh

well, as long as I feel ok, I don't care. I don't have much left to

buy anyway. Just a few stocking stuffer items really.

OK, so that is my pathetic life in a nutshell. I really need to get

out more and have fun. I'm beginning to sound like my mother, rest

her soul wherever she wound up. I'm going to try my best to keep up

with you all here but for now, I have to get back to work before the

party starts and I get out of here early. Have a happy day!!!!

Hugs to all,

Steph

Hi ,

I am so happy to hear that you are doing better! Please update us with

what your doctors said yesterday.

Don't worry about your weight sticking -you can fix that when you get

better. Sounds like a few visits to the bathroom will fix it anyway!

Just in case you where thinking of going to the gym (in between shopping

trips, LOL!), they are closed today and will also be closed next Friday.

Take care and have a fun Holiday.

I have a coworker who takes Bentyl and it helps with the stomach pains

she has (she hasn't had WLS just has a weird tummy)

Please take care of yourself and feel better! Christmas isn't about

the presents...it's about being healthy enough to enjoy the love!!!!!!
