As for burning, throat... well, that is part of a horrible bug... I hope it is for you guys, it will go away, unlike reflux stuff.
I only have issues when i eat massive amounts of hotsauce so I don't have that problem on a regular basis, I did... LOL but I also got extra wing sauce ever time I ordered for my daughter and I put it on everything. So sad... no more.... but it is a nice treat when I do.

Did you all know that hot pepper(s) help speed up your metabolism??? I add a little cyanne to everything I cook!

Have a good day everyone

oh Jenn, I couldn't think about any kind of peppers in my food right now

I am burning up as it is...........How are u doing, you don;t chime in as often as u used to....Hey, I see ur bmi is in the 20's, that is awsome!!!!!good for u.

LOL I know, I have been off them for 3 months, just started adding cyanne for a little kick that doesn't kick my butt.
I'm ok, kind of busy, was working on my bathroom, worked a little, and walk for 1 1/2 hr ever day and go to the gym and doing the mom thing.

Honestly i'm mentally exhausted! Wow, it is in the 20's I never really paid attention, I know I will be out of the obese stage in another 5lbs, that is all I've been focusing on. LOL

val628 · 10-23-2009, 01:14 PM

that is great....that is my goal to jenn...for me thats 137 lbs...i think i was born weighing more than that.....lol

Jennifur · 10-23-2009, 01:21 PM

Val, that is not in the normal range, just the "overweight" range but not the obese range either!
baby steps.

I can't worry about the scale right now, i just need to keep pluggin away

on a happy note, I'm eating 1200 cals the last 2 days, I think it is working, lost 2lbs yest, 1 was from gain. hope it stays gone

Oh, ok. well I have been drinking protien shakes for breakfast, and sometimes lunch I drink the EAS chocolate one from sam's club, i am sure they have them everywhere, they are good cold, the only ones I have found that I really like. they are a little expensive, about $24 for a case, not really bad now that I think about it, cause i just bought muscle milk $3.19 a bottle and I hated it....

Also, I was wondering if anyone knows where to get soy pasta?

That is what I did Val, i drank the EAS myoplex lite for three days, and my heart burn is gone at the moment. see if that helps. I hope so cause i know how horrible it is....

val628 · 10-24-2009, 01:40 PM

vicki's band · 10-24-2009, 08:28 PM

If I were leaving town I would have done exactly what you did Val cause there is nothing worse than a bad case of heartburn...I am miserable when it flares up, i can't even think straight........

val628 · 10-24-2009, 08:36 PM

Jennifur · 10-25-2009, 02:35 PM

How is the heartburn for ya? any better?

Hi all, I'm new to the site. I am pre-op. Just started south beach diet. Not easy. I was reading your posts and it seems like some people have not been happy with BGH. So far, I have not encountered that but is everyone overall happy with their care?
