December post Op

December 1, 2000 - I saw my PCP today... I have been having a little
problem with nausea here lately.. It almost seems as if I am pregnant
again but I know I am not.. She suggested trying B6 again since that
often helps with nausea.. If that don't help in a week or so, she suggested
I come back to her for a blood test to see if I am deficient in B12 and
perhaps I would need B12 shots.. So, I guess I start B6 again today..
On a good note, I have now lost 33 lbs.. I am now 275.. YAY! :)

December 10, 2000 - Well, I decided to weigh myself today, don't ask
me why, and I found that in the last 9 days, I have only lost 1 lb.. I am now
at 274.. Guess i hit a plateau.. That's ok.. I know they are going to happen
and I know my body is just doing what is right for me... It's much better
to lose a little bit at a time so my skin can keep up..

December 13, 2000 - Today is 7 weeks since surgery.. I decided to weigh
again just so I can have the weight correct.. I have broken the plateau
and am now down to 272, 36 lbs gone forever!! The last time I weighed
this much <or little I should say> was when i conceived our son in March
1998.. The B6 seems to be helping a lot.. I will try to stop taking it again
and see if the nausea will stay gone this time.. I am having a slight problem
with fatigue.. I will see if I can get some of my energy back in the next
few weeks and if I am still tired after the first of the year, I will go ahead
and see my PCP again.. Maybe I need some extra Iron or something..
I know I was anemic when I was pregnant and even just before I had
surgery so that wouldn't surprise me at all...
