Please help fellow member northstar9148. She has PMs waiting for her, but needs info on how to access them from BariatricPal App on her SM-J700T. The best way to reach her to assist is by posting in topic "Pre/Post Surgical Plans Are Not Required" (OP 4MRB4PHOTO). Thanks, folks.

Just saw it for the first time ever and was surprised by my reaction: It's tacky to park one's butt on a website such as this to hawk one's pyramid-scheme products. And I'm just a disinterested user of the site.

Bought the most perfect, tasty, luscious cherry tomatoes at the farmers' market today. They turned out to have skins thick enough that they don't chew. There oughta be a law: Drown the food scientists working in the ag industry.

What's with this new thing, a six-month, pre-surgery "class?" Is it going nation-wide? Who requires and conducts it -- the practice? the insurer? Is it out of pocket for the prospective patient, never to be reimbursed? If so, what's the price tag? Whose big, fat chipmunk cheeks is it filling? From what I've gleaned, the class has merits, but the whiff of greed is sulfurous. Or am I way off?

From which planet do some of these ideas come? It must be Saturn, saturnine as they are.

It's unnecessary to post the same topic in several forums. One will cover you or, if panic reigns, two.

Considering how long it's been, today, the 4th of my recommitment, is significant. Even better is feeling confident and eager to continue.

Yesterday's esophagram and NP visit went well. The images showed no dilation with band in proper position. That, and because it had been giving me signals for several months, "we" gave me more saline. I feel the effect and it's good. We'll see if the band truly can be pressed into service again before considering revision.
-
Took a deep breath and the step: Made an appt with my practice to determine the state of my band and what comes next. I'm open to sleeve, but need to learn more to get past my own bias against it. This is a tad premature, as I don't know yet whether my insurance covers revision.

A most happy 100th, Miss Olivia de Havilland......A glorious Canada Day to all and Dominion Day to some from this closet Canadian.

Looking forward to Saturday with McCoy Tyner, Ron Carter, Wallace Roney, Roy Haynes and transcendent music in the Park.

The last bite of an omelet should be its culmination. Then why is that, when a teeny shard of eggshell slips in to the mix, it waits in ambush until the last bite? What motivates it to be so unkind?

M'birthday.

Happy Passover, zissen Pesach, already a day in, but it's never too late.

I've never made matzo balls, but, a thousand years ago, I made gefilte fish, but not for Passover. I did it the old-fashioned way, chopping the fish by hand with my grandmother's chopping blade (now 'mezzaluna') and round-bottomed wooden bowl. Lots and lots and lots of work, but it turned out so well that I made it again about a year later. I used a recipe from an old New York Times column.

May a woman open a topic in "Male Only?" A brief exchange between two male characters on "The Good Wife" lingers for its interestingness (see the italics?) , humor and surprise element. Would the gentlemen amongst us take part? Let's see what happens.

OKC Pirate, this is for you. I think your latest topic is in the 'men only' forum not because of the product, but because of the joke. Were you 100+ years younger, you'd have been a guest at the barbecue at Twelve Oaks. I sent the groupon link to a friend who has been slender from birth and has always been vexed by having nothing to keep his pants from sliding a bit.

Easy for you to say, as it comes from your own locker-room joke, which, by the way, was a surprise. I think I'd never before seen you doing locker room material. (The joke is funny, but I'm far way too far sophisticated to say as much. Therefore, you didn't read it here. Dammit, it's getting funnier now that I think of it again. I may guffaw any moment. Don't be surprised. I love "Family Guy.")

The clothing exchange was a success for the participants and very much so for me, having at long last gotten to meet the woman who, after a phone conversation six years ago, made me want to partner with our host organization. Other things made is special, too. One of the best evenings of any type that I've had in a while. I'm charged and ready for the next event.

No, not every little thing that happens in the two months post-op is a result of surgery, not even that mosquito bite.

While pondering a decision unrelated to BP's purpose, you all came to mind. I became aware that I value you for being non-judgmental about a topic that so many do judge elsewhere.

Hey, minimize the agony and take up less space. When quoting a post in yours, you can delete from the quote whatever it is that you're not responding to. Save the rest of us lots of scrolling time, eye strain and pointless repetition. You'll be appreciated all the more.

Some topics are ugly in such a warped way, that they're fun. Others are just run to ugly. There should be a law that fun must be part of the mix.

Celebrating this century's Pi Day and making the most of it in case I'm too addlepated to notice in 2116.
