    stacie9229 got a reaction from Ms skinniness in Chinese food....yuck   
    I love Chinese food! My fiancé is a fisherman and we barter fresh fish for free Chinese from our favorite spot, so yeah we eat a lot of Chinese in this house! I tried it & it was just okay, didn't sit so well 3 or 4 months out. Later, after my gallbladder removal I tried again w/out the rice -just a little. I got sooo sick & felt awful. I still crave it (seeing the remnants from my family ordering it when I work late) but Gollum (my sleeve) still WILL NOT have it. He's the boss, and he runs the show with an Iron fist.

    stacie9229 got a reaction from JenC in Gallstones Anyone?   
    I had my gangsta-gallbladder out at 5mo post op (last month).
    I'd INSIST they remove at the same time. It's showing you what's coming and if it would save you what I went through...
    The blackout-level pain made me pull over once to try to catch my breath - I pulled over in front of the local PD "just in case", so someone would find me if I died. Not even kidding, It's that bad.
    I was crushed to have another surgery so soon. I was just getting my energy back & it took the wind right out of my sails & sent me back to square one. I counted on the "being just fine in 2 or 3 days" but I surely was not. I still really am not.
    Do yourself a favor and insist.):

    My awesome bf turned the too-small double wrap belt into a perfectly fitting single wrap, he had to sew down all the detailing and you absolutely cannot tell anything has been done to it. I have a big extra piece that I might sew to make an ornamental thing for my brand new short Dingo cowboy boots.
    I'm so happy and he is SO sweet.

    I just left a job in the bldg next to China Sky in Winchester, actually! You will both do great, Dr Kim and the Mt Auburn program are FIRST CLASS!
    From 340 to 228 (down 112lbs) in just 6mo and I am the picture of health inside & out. I wish you the best of luck, but you won't need it. You are in excellent hands!

    I'm betting you drop like 8lbs in the next couple days. Maybe you're just a stair-step loser like me. I'm 6mo out (down 111!) but ever since pre-op, my body hangs in til the last second (a cpl wks sometimes!) and then will drop 7 or 8 lbs over a couple of days.
    Hang in there! You got this!
