did you have to buy new clothes because of your weight loss?
I only shop at khols...it is easy for me to navigate and parking is a breeze. I hate having to go to the mall. I lost my car one time and security had to drive me around the mall to find it. How embarrassing !

oh dear i hope you are feeling better

Keep us updated. I'm sorry you aren't feeling good.

But another good reason for a week later for the surgery.

I didn’t have to buy new clothes because I’ve lost a lot more weight than this in the past, and have a lot of different size jeans hanging around. I’m still wearing the same tops.

I do as much shopping as I can online. It’s so hard for me to walk through most stores to find what I’m looking for. I’m very picky.

The PA I saw at the walk-in said she thinks I just have a virus. The rapid strep came back normal, but they sent it out to be cultured anyway. My throat already feels better than it did yesterday. So, that’s a good sign it’s not a bacterial infection.

We are doing laundry now.

Hi, Kay,

'Wishing you well as you get ready for the surgery. I'm happy to hear that
your throat feels better.

My throat doesn't feel too bad this morning. I went and bought some nasal saline because I'm a little stuffed up, and have post nasal drip which could be aggravating it. I'm also gargling with salt water. Hopefully that s- will help.

Corey gets so f'ing grouchy on Sundays, especially when we're doing laundry. He was PO'ed we had so much to do this time, but it's his own fault for not wanting to go last week. Anyway, we got it done. I haven't put it all away yet tho.

I have to get to the grocery store before Wednesday (the day before Thanksgiving is nuts). My best bet is to do it today in the rain since we will be getting quite a bit of snow tonight into tomorrow. I usually have to go to a different supermarket than I normally shop at just to buy the fresh turkey breast for Thanksgiving. It's raining cats and dogs... today's going to be fun.

I drank a 1/2 bottle of Gatorade before taking the mag. citrate Saturday night and woke up feeling better than I usually do. I think if I hydrate myself more with things other than water before I have to take it vs. just the next day, I'll be even better off. This makes me feel like I'll be able to tolerate my laxation plan better.

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to take mag. citrate Thanksgiving night. There's no way around it. I'm not going to want to do it, so I'm going to have to FORCE myself. I'm going to have to force myself to take all of it. It's essential to make sure I'll be cleaned out for surgery

I haven't heard anything about the blood work I had drawn at my pre-op appointment a week ago today, and nobody has contacted me about having another EKG done (knock on wood), so I'm hopeful I won't run into any issues there.

Hoping you feel back to normal by thanks giving.a fresh turkey breast sounds good although I prefer the thigh myself.
Hoping that you have all of the pre op instructions and testing done so you can just try to gear up for surgery with out having to worry about getting other medical stuff done.
(((((HUGS and LOVE)))))

Glad things are going well. Keep up the good work.
