Glad ur on the road to recovery and have an amazing attitude! As for understanding what happened, u as the patient have every right to request a copy of ur operative report (from the hospital) & i would... it might not answer every question but it can give u a general idea of the flow if things & then u will have an idea of what, if any, questions u need to ask ur surgeon... Best of luck to u!

I agree too :-)

Forgot to put.. I'm 5'6"

Also depends alot on the jeans... brand, cut, etc... i fit into a sz 14 old navy jeans on black friday, right around 230#... but still have 20s (also from old navy, but like 8-10yrs old) that still fit (very loose, but not dropping to the floor or anything)... weird! And ive been down to 220 @ one point before n never worn a 14 in my life until now... lol... i also have other sz 14 jeans n dress pants that dont fit (like 4-6 inches til i can zip them... so many places vanity sz now & ever maker does it a little differently... its almost like sizes r not standard measurements any more, each company just does what they want...

As long as ur daughter isn't crushin on him I dont think it should b a problem!

Yay!!!

I know ive seen other posters refuse because of the possibility of dumping... i would ask them if i can get out of it... maybe u could get a home monitor n test instead for say 2wks... i believe thats what she did... id tell them ur OBVIOUSLY not in gestational diabetes! And have done 2 that should be sufficient... Also i wouldnt worry too much about the 67... hopefully if u get a monitor, you'll have it to be safe... but it sounds like reactive hypoglycemia... i assume u dont eat a lot of carbs, being a sleever... so all that sugar in the drink (esp on top of a pastry ) just threw ur system for a loop n it got over excited and made too much insulin... id think the WORST thing u could do is go shock it again! Try explaining that to them n see what they say... i wouldnt risk ur job but if they understood more maybe theyd b satisfied In the mean time... no carb binges for u! Lol Good luck!!!

Ummm... did she jus say D P!? With smiley faces... Lol... bahaha... sry, i worked all night n im giddy... i had to :-)

Lol... thats right :-D skinny dance time!!! Yay!!! Lets do it!!!

Lol... with little leprechauns dancing in it :-) thats what happened to me :-D

Lmmfao... she believes in aliens too... bahahaha

Oh honey, our gi specialist & peds gi surgeon do follow the rule... thats what IVs r for... all im saying is, to each his/her own... but u have no business mocking someone else's belief without a legit reason...

Exactly... cuz thats what it seemed like... anyways... actually an upper gi bleed or old blood would be tarry/ black... but a lower gi bleed from an ulcer or perf can easily be bright red... as well as in the vomit... thus y we often have the "no red" rule... I do apologize if i sounded like an ass ... the way i read ur post was that we were being rediculous n since ur dr didnt carr tge op should do whatever she wants ... so i was simply defending my position... #nopantiesimabunchhere... lol

Ummm... yeah... if u see blue, @least u know ur not bleeding to death... #wtf

I think they prob mean right after surgery... we have ppl avoid anything red... gatorade, jello, popsickles, etc... bacause if u vomit or have diarrhea n see red u may freak out ir it may mask a true bleed (thinking its just ur gatorade)... i think after a week or so u should b fine but i would double check with ur dr or NUT

Im with the others! Ditch his lousy ass... get hot n find someone who treats u like the queen u r!

Ive told everyone... and had NO bad responses... im lucky to have a very supportive group of aquaintences :-) but if i ever got a uve cheated... i would tell them to think what they want n they could kiss my skinny cheatin ass while theyre at it :-)

Just wanted to say... im sooo glad to hear that ur husband came around! I bet he was glad u honored HIS wishes of not wanting to hear anymore about it... even tho he was wrong, u worked it out the best way u could!!! Kudos to u n ur lucky family, who has a momma thats getting healthier!!! Hope u continue with a speedy recovery <3

Ok... since my month long stall FINALLY broke, I'm in! HW : 344 SW. : 329 (4/5/12) CW. : 222.8 GW. : 210 ** fingers crossed**

Also just to add... estrogen is stored in fat cells... so with rapid fat loss comes rapid release of all that estrogen :-) All those hormones with the major life change! I cried more times than a few... lol

I have uhc n was covered with a bmi over 40, would've been with 35-39 & 2 co-morbidities too... but from what ive heard, its not the company that decides ur coverage & what requirements u must meet (ie: bmi, diet attempts, etc), but actually ur employer decides what specs they want written into ur policy... i called 3 times n spoke to diff reps just to make sure i got the same answer from each... lol... **good luck!!!**

Alot of drs will repair hernias during the surgery so i dont see y... i wouldnt stress until u talk to the actual surgeon ... good luck!

Wasnt a revision but i would go for laproscopic if possible :-) good luck"
