I went and saw Dr. K yesterday...it took my entire morning and I saw her for about two minutes - this is my only complaint, she is sooooo busy...but I told her about my bad reaction with my antibiotic pill a few weeks ago and how I've had a few bouts of acid reflux since then...that I've figured out I just can't eat or drink before bed, and I think I am back on track.
She told me to take Prilosec every afternoon for a month, just to make sure everything stays settled. Not to take big pills, especially Zipack, which can be very harsh, but crush or get a liquid. I had lost 5 lbs in 3 weeks, so we didn't do a fill. I have an appointment in two weeks, so we'll see, maybe I'll want/need one then.
Meanwhile, yesterday I had a few bites of pasta and three shrimp for breakfast, a chai latte from starbucks, a sliver of waffle torte for my coworker's birthday, and three bites of un-yummy authentic Chinese food for dinner. I like chicken and broccoli, what can I say?
This morning I am at my all time low of 224.5 lbs. Back where I started from...that was an annoying bounce...I will see what this weekend brings...I'm going to a party this afternoon at E's friends' place to watch the US/England World Cup game, and there will be a BBQ and they are foodie people - so there is always amazing stuff there. I'll try to keep it healthy.
I was supposed to work this morning but I canceled the appointment and rescheduled for next week. Just need a day off - working tomorrow. So I'm eating some beans and an egg and maybe a few tortilla chips for breakfast, off to visit friends and see their baby, and then soccer! Have a good weekend!


Hi Yana! I just wanted to thank you for the *awesome* package that you sent with all the great stuff! It was waiting for me when we got back from Peru and was say more than i expected. Very very cool of you. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteYana - glad you're feeling back on track. I take nexium everyday, I don't get night reflux, but I do get it so after we made sure everything was OK with my band, my Dr. just decided I may get reflux and it's OK.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you are back on the "band wagon". Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteso glad to hear you're out of your rut. hope things continue looking up for you. spiffy new layout by the way.
ReplyDeleteI take Prilosec every day. I'm hoping as I lose more weight I won't need it. Hope you had fun at your parties! Happy Weekend!
ReplyDeletePrilosec twice a day here! My stomach is a freakin' wreck! I also ask for liquid antibiotics whenever I can -- learned the hard way with that.
ReplyDeleteSo glad it is ok and you are losing...like the new look blog.
