Frustr8

I belch furiously after every attempt to eat and/or drink, n matter how slow, at 75-80% Precious Pouch tries to upchuck. Hey I actually ate something that stayed down. 3 well-chewed Club Crackers each with a little pimento cheese spread! Hey maybe she though it was a treat and not food. Hey it is a temporary NVV, a non- vomiting victory, why it did work is like Heaven, beyond all Human Understanding! Why did she accept THAT when she refuses even pureed? IDK but Happy Happy Joy 😂 Joy!

Rather have 💩than Flatus, don't eat enough to keep #2 rolling. This reminds Me, Happy Thanksgiving, Happy MoM, guess where I may be in between Turkey Checks? Yep, worshipping at the Porcelain Throne. 😧💩😧

car not 🐱 Daddy always 💓cats, would swerve to miss them and puppies every time.

Elcee undoubtedly so, except open surgery has its inherent risks. Wounds heal slower, more risk of infection, incision break down, my own daddy ended up with a ventral hernia post another type of abdominal surgery, strangely my daughter the R.D. did also. RD was able to have hers repaired maybe 10 years later, lost her navel and a lot of broken- down stretched out skin, forbidden to ever gain weight again. Ugly then, not all that gorgeous now, Daddy died with his at 80 unrepaired, ugly, begged him NEVER go shirtless, it upsets your grandsons(and me too) to see IT! Was told in case of any cat accident, roll to floorboards, curl into fetal ball and pray Our GOD allows YOU to live. And although I do have an right paramedian scar from open appendectomy/gall bladder removal nearly 35 years ago (February 1984) , my flabby belly was beautifully laprascopic RNY SEPTEMBER 5th. True recounting, told Dr Needleman at our July 2018 chat I would prefer an Open incision to no surgery. He drew back, said " Do you KNOW how long it takes an Open Incision to heal? Flipped up my T-Shirt, flashed him my belly, and he laughed ruefully " Okay, Point Taken! I'll enter it into My Notes!" And I have the prettiest 7 incisions you ever saw, they're fading into the train wreck of abdominal stretch marks I have, but if YOU look close, HE DID BEAUTIFUL WORK! Sorry about all of you with the rest ' cause I think I got the BEST! And as long as each one of us feels THAT Way about Theirs. The world🌏 will turn smoothly!

Pro- My Bariatric Hospital does offer them on several different nights Con- Always from 6:30pm on. Con- 50 miles away Con- no longer drive Con- no one to call, swear I am the only OSU Bariatric patient in Knox County. And if you could visualize the people on the street you would know I was by far not the largest, fattest, most out of shape, most needful person HERE. 75 POUND TODDLERS, 150 POUND GRADE SCHOOLERS, YOUTH AND ADULTS 200-300 pounds. Not sure we are living the GOOD LIFE but we are living the HIGH CALORIE one! Makes me either want to cry or start preaching!

Following- scared this could happen to me. Precious Pouch is such a brat I fear even when de-structured she may repulse food. And wouldn't that be a kick in the pants? From obesity to anorexia to bulemia-- Well They All are Disordered Eating Facets.👅😧

😝😝😝🍞ROFLMAO

Don't think you are doomed as much as being in recovery

Sounds like a plan, a well-thought-out plan. Rock it hon and Happy Thanksgiving!

Vegus nerve being stimulated? This is like medical level Jeopardy, I'm neither Alex Trabeck or Dr Oz or even Dr Phil. Check with someone on your medical team. Don't know your history so it could be a mystery.😫Check,with someone & put the smile😝back on Frustr8's face.

Chest pains, definite red flag🚩, substernal? upper chest? entire chest or one triggering point? I find it very concerning, what does your bariatric team say about it? Gas, hmmn, Uncle Si Robertson on Duck Dynasty, thought he had had gas he couldn't burp free, decided to go hunting to work it off, lucky he had some intervention, he turned out to be right in the middle of an ❤ attack. Luckily,he made it through, but will you without intervention. Depends on a wiser person than me sorting symptoms out, but you know, squeaky wheels get theirselves greased first. Be proactive with you, you are the only you that you have! Don't worry this great-grandma to death, do something for you now!

And I am so proud of each step You Are Making! I should have known a Marine would do it best, shouldn't I? I would say you are now well on your path to success!

Well whether you choose Dr Needleman or Dr Noria, you will have a wonderful surgeon. Dr Needleman did my RNY September 5th and Dr Noria does my endoscopies every 2 weeks I developed a stomal stricture and 5 post-surgery ulcers, rare except on Bariatric Pal, we have quite a group here. But I will never regret my surgery, OSU is a wonderful place to go. Everyone treats you kindly, they really want to make life better for you! I was in another bariatric program, nowhere as nice as OSU. You picked a quality place to go, in my opinion THE BEST! if you have any questions please ask. I'll be only too happy to help you any Way I can!😝🚩🏣

A lot,of December people starting show up for our Holiday Party. And you are now assured a Table for One and starting into 2019 with brand-new lives! Welcome and may each surgery bring hope into your lives.

Salted caramel chews sound so good, and they are good for You too! Win-Win in my book!

Get ones with flowers or big polka dots. Might,as well rock something when you're on the walk to recovery!

So sorry to hear of the loss to your family. A lot of memories along with the Chinese food and steamed shrimp sounds very nice.

my personal all-time favorite Husband:This is my First Wife Wife: And this is my Last Husband.

You mean " For a Fat woman, you don't sweat much" always thought it a DUMB statement. Ranks right,up there with "of course, I love you. Didn't I tell back before we got married?'

Christabelle can't get Daisy Duck out of her mind, I keep seeing "Myhorseisfattoo" horse with load- levelers and a kickstand so it won't topple over. I can heard the whispers down in the barn, OMG,here SHE comes again,Quick, hide or run out to the paddock! I see a saddle, not a currycomb, SHE'S here on BUSINESS!

My dietician agreed, one of the first foods recommended, but then Wendy's is headquarter in nearby Dublin, Ohio. And I like it just fine, or I did before the installation of Precious Pouch, my only criticism, they put celery in their chili, herasy where I come from! And Lord help you, if you unexpectedly get Cincinnati chili. See it was brainchild of Greek instead of Tex-Mex land. Has cinnamon instead of chili powder in seasoning. Now I am a Central Ohio gal, eaten both, enjoyed both, but sorry Queen City people, I still like Wendy's more. But with Cincy, it's 3 or 4 way for me. A Southern chick like Lynn, or even Big Viffer from Dayton have probably a better explaination than me. But here it goes-- 3 way, c.c. on bed of spaghetti topped with shredded cheddar cheese, for 4 way you add onions, 5 way onions and beans, there is also I think vegetarian 3 way, but I have never tried that! AND the best brand-Skyline. And late lamented loathed it, funny I'm still around, isn't it? I don't eat it anymore because unless you make it yourself there is cocoa in it, and my allergy would make me a sick little puppy. Google All Recipes for The recipe for Cincinnati chili, complex seasonings but if you're from Southern Ohio& Northern Kentucky it's like Mothers Milk to you!

Try them steamed, oven-roasted. I used to dislike cabbage family, especially Brussels sprouts. My MIL, may she rest quietly, cause she never was while above ground, cooked vegetables until they were a gelatinous yellow-green mass. Ergo Late Lamented was not Gung Ho,about veggies. Took my steamer basket, added cauliflower, broccoli(or brussel sprouts) baby carrots and tiny-like pearl onions. Cooked just until the baby carrots are done over steam, He ate them, pronounced them good, sprinkled his portion with shredded cheddar or colby, and came back for seconds. Another dietary no-no--- MIL Cooked veggies with baking soda, good way to kill off vitamins and other food benefits. So maybe I took better care of L.L. than his own mother did! ( I'm high-fiving MYSELF).👋

Does anyone have a good recipe for split-pea soup. Someone gave. a bag, always ate canned before but surely I can make my own. No preservatives, I will know just what my own contains.
