Well Im now 8 1/2 weeks out and still doing really well, minus I got sick with bronchial pnamonia(sp???) I am starting to feel better now and no longer have a fever which is nice. I am having so troubles getting the biaxin in but making myself. It tastes like (ummmmm all the words i dont think i can use on this site) It is discusting!!!!!!
I am getting ready for my 8 week scope, will more likely be 9 weeks...Although Im not sure how "healthy" I need to be before Dr. Nohr will do it. It is schedualed for the 30th so hopefully I will be good enough to get it over with as Im not looking forward to it at all.
Thats all for now......

Angie - wondering how things are going and if you had your scope...I see its coming today - you will be fine...its a breeze.

Crappy about being sick, hopefully you are on the mend. Great weight loss so far and I am sure you will be feeling better soon.

Had to reschedual my scope that was schedualed for today as I have my pnamonia and Nohr didnt wanna go down and have me hacking and stuff so it is now reschedualed for the 15th of Feb. not too far away, I have no food issues so am not too worried about it.
I am finally starting to feel better and getting myself going to the gym. I plan to start out at 4-5 days a week as it might not be too suited with the babysitting aspect of it but I will give it a go!!!!!
Hope everyone is staying warm and not living in out irc box, -38 was WAY TOO COLD!!!!!!!!

Default Scoped....

Well I am 2 1/2 months out now and still feeling GREAT!!!!! I am down 62 lbs, and Dr. Nohr was happy that I had been doing so well. I saw him yesterday and I had my scope. Man do I ever hate not being in control. It was fast and painless, but yet at the same time I was scared to death to have the drugs administerd. I dont know how I am going to go through with the panni when that time comes.....I am feeling great and can eat what I want which is scary. I know when I am full and it is still around 3/4 of a cup, but as I say I can eat anything. I havent tried ham again and Im sure I wont for a while as that is the only thing I had problems with. I made a hamburger meatloaf for supper with spaghetti sauce and mushrooms, and it was fine. I am fine with ground beef. I have ate salads as well and lettuce is now one of my favorites. Hopefully everyone else is feeling well.
In the Alberta deep freeze, and thawing.....
