Sounds like you've got it covered. Thanks for letting us know, because even if we're not really active, we all do care for each other. 64 lbs in 11 weeks is great! WOW. When you mentioned pain at your hips, I couldn't imagine what it could be - if it were something like an obstruction, you wouldn't get it on both sides at once, so I hadn't the faintest. This is good to know - something to watch for. It does take a while, when we lose weight this quickly, for our muscles to adjust. I know of friends who had backaches from the weight loss that they didn't have before. I'm sure it's similar. It's good you checked. Pam in Niceville Good deal. Sounds like you’ve got it covered.

I went to the Dr who performed the bypass. I have lost 64 lbs in 11 weeks. Some of the weight loss is disapportional which means I lose more upper than lower body. It is putting a strain on my hips and the muscles around them are inflammed. So I was given a anti inflammatory med for 6 days. My blood work was gone. As for the metallic taste, he asked that I stop taking multivitamins for 3 days and see if that makes a difference. Catherine <!--more--> Catherine, a metallic taste MIGHT be a sign of an ulcer. (I know that when people complain about pain in their gut – or somewhere around there, Vitalady always asks, “what does water taste like” – if it’s metallic, might be an ulcer.) That said, I don’t know what meds you are on, or if maybe one of those might be causing it. I’d call the doc, just to be on the safe side.
