Taste bud changing thing was no joke
Frustr8 replied to sleevegirl88's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Cottage cheese used to be my go-to as well as Greek Yogurt, even stirred sugar f4ee syrups etc in them to spice things up. Precious Hurled both out with great rapidity. Haven't tried them since, should maybe? -
Now did you learn your lesson? Gad, I sound like the Nasty Mama who let her son burn himself just. as a learning lesson. When I read about it, I thought "What a Nasty Broad, that's Tough Love gone BAD!"😖

Dr Vuong seminars, who has been, what are they about?
Frustr8 replied to elcee's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Which one, so many are so good. My son , the Tomkitten, likes his daughter Lily's song from a few years ago, the one with,a nasty language suggestion, spent good m9ney to download it on Google Play, had it also on I-Tunes until the day he decided to launder my I-phone, NEVER worked again! -
Still virtually patting your hand and sitting in the waiting room. you didnt request a Buckeye foster sister but you got me now!

And how did Darling Hubby fit into the Halloween Ball Gown, pictures would have been lovely, don't you think?.Oh YOU wore it? Even Better! Now on to the Little Black Dress. And it's now time for Frustr8 to burst forth in song🎶 Maybe it's much too early in the Game Ah but I thought I'd ask you just the same. What are you doing New Years, New Years Eve? You can now unstop the children's ears, noth8by to be frightened of, and all the dogs🐶 should stop howling shortly! The irreverent Ms. Frustr8 the Great😝

Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: POST-OP Discussion
Frustr8 replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As the doorkeeper of Stricture city, 3 EGJ post my RnY surgery, at least another scheduled, probably. on Black Friday, if the biweekly rule still holds. This will be my lifetime 6th Endoscopy, 1 done itranasally by my ENT, 1 by General Surgeon in Mount Vernon, 1 by gastroenterologist in Mount Vernon and the 3+ at OSU with my lovely (and she really truly is , she's really Arab-Canadian, but think a Desert Princess!) Dr Sabrena Noria. So a veteran , I am! I can tell you basically NBD. I have had worse indignenties wreaked upon my body, both awake and inert. And due to a miscalculation on the anethesia/sedation amount, as a redhead we require a tad more. On October 26th I was alert, NEVER fell asleep, watched it all on the monitor. No I was still numb from throat gargle spray you gargle, then swallow it done, so I didn't feel the. e-tube go down, I did though feel it extracted, less discomfort than a Jackson-Pratt removal, yep had one of those back shortly after Drs J&P received naming rights. Really fascinating, better than 90% YOUTUBE videos, recent ones seem to be one step above Crap. And remember Club Stricture is a very exclusive Club, few things ge5 past US!💓love 😝and smiles. your Frustr8 -

And l8he TV evangelists chronically needing 💰,guess what I do too, and nobody chooses to watch my videos even if I posted some! -
Been stalking a few weeks ... figured I’d say hi!
Frustr8 replied to jessicab526's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
They, like the military, are largely unsung, and do a very special job. Nursing is always patient-centered, medicine Is disease centered maybe that's why they are the Calico Cat and the Gingham Dog, they both want their patient to return to health, just 2 different philosophy,to Get There! -
Watching videos of your procedure pre-op
Frustr8 replied to Little Green's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I wish they had made videos of MINE, I know I know, sick puppy but I truly would have liked it. Would have been neat to say "Hey Folks, that was ME!"😜👍😷📦 -
Fat Tax on Plus-Size Clothing (but almost exclusively on women's clothing, not men's)

How will these stores and companies be able to stay afloat when I no longer pay this" Punish Them" tax? Size 15 Junion, working to make YOU Mine! -
Hand my Sleeve on Sept. 5, happy and miserable!

Hand my Sleeve on Sept. 5, happy and miserable!
Frustr8 replied to Futuresleevie18's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
And still slogging through the Stricture Wars and it is mid- November. Beginning to think I am some sort,of weird biweekly Friday date for Endoscopy/Hepatology. Nurses recognize me , Dr Noria refers to me by name, not number, last Friday she even helped PUSH my bed to the procedure area, maybe because I was LAST of the Day? And the receptionist greets me with" Hi again! Did you have a good trip down from Mount Vernon?" We'll I would, had your city fathers not a continuing mile of asphalt needed to remain unbroken! I'm sure I saw Robin Hood's barn 3 times and perhaps Hansel and Gretel's. house. You begin to wonder if you're driving or planning to join a game of Dodge'Em. -
Video: Emotional Mind Games After Surgery
Frustr8 replied to JCKlgl123's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Dr Vuong is one of those self-appointed Gurus that you hate, liathe, tolerate or adore on YOUTUBE. Last time I was over there, you couldn't swing a stethoscope without hitting one !😷 The only one I tend to believe is Dr Matthew Weiner, he usually makes sense in his videos. -
Public Service Employees having or had surgery?
Frustr8 replied to Sweedfire86's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Surely there are others, was once one myself but it's been YEARS. -
Any Netflix or Hulu Shows of Bariatric Life or WLS?
Frustr8 replied to mitchjoann132010's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have been looking for a place to post my query. Maybe this is "necro-posting"but at least this thread is from 2018. I had, after my recent move, and realigning cable and other Tra La La's been offered a month trial subscription to several services. Is Netflix and the others like Hulu, Pandora worth the trouble and effort or is it a big m9neymake Spectrum might be getting a Kickback from?😫😥😝 -
Don't you want to say " I put such evil,things behind me, I am searching for Glory now!" He should be treating the up- and-coming YOU. and the future YOU not the sad lady who may have brought you There.😝

Just wondering if anyone from NC
Frustr8 replied to Lena809's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
Seems North Caolina is a hotbed for DS on Bariatric Pal, do you just have an disproportionate of surgeons doing them? -

Come to think of it so does my bariatric clinic, intimidated me at first, you see I spent years being weighed and found wanting, yeah it sounds biblical but I don't mean it,exactly like that. You I ow I would try and try, make my paltry losses and there would be an undertone I hated " You know you could do better. You just don't try hard enough!" And,i was always trying level best hard as I can.! And like the Biblical King, I was not good enough for what God planned. Now post surgery it is :-,finally,my fist bump time, and that is pleasing.. Some thing,i do fear, and maybe I should not verbalize it,but I shall. I understand the rational of an anorexic, the sense of power as pounds melt,away rapidly, it is finally like you Can Have Finally Control, it is a thin thin line between health and sick applications here and I feel teetering,on the knife edge. You know I did watch this show a lot of furst, same sick fascination many,people have at an traffic accident, just cannot help watching, even though the. pain , wounds are so evident. Now, Tomkitten still likes watching, I will not turn to TLC willingly. It just doesn't feel,right to me anymore.

And that's who covered mine in Ohio. And I think @ Bluesheeler is. in Maryland. We will get back. to a common purpose after Saturday, we have a foot ball game coming up, His Terrapins versus my Buckeyes. I of course think my team will win handily, he probably doubts it. I feel sorry for the Rutgers fans, the Scarlet Knights aren't doing TOO GOOD this year.

Frustr8 replied to sisotowbelle84's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Well i for one enjoyed reading your story, I will be a happy follower of your story as it takes place. Stacy I have broad shoulders to cry on if it becomes necessary, at 72 I have. survived a lot of things, if I didn't participate in everything I sure watched them. I'm a good friend when you need one. And welcome again, we have a nice group of people here, we love to help. -
And if he doesnt, the loss will be his-emotionally, yours physically. And we know the real winner here, YOU!

Another post-op poop question. :)
Frustr8 replied to linlew's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
💩-amentary here. Tried to cutting back to 1 Miralax daily, if your team says 2, do 2. This Am I awoke to flatus, of such a degree Tomkitten said" What was THAT sound?" Silly rabbitt🐰you should know by now So I marched into the Chamber of the Porcelain throne there to await occurrences. Such occurrences were not forthcoming, oh I tried, I said "Rectal muscles- Wakey Wakey!" They yawned out 1 puff of foetus and there I set and set. Oh I could feel the stool sitting right inside the opening. If it had a face , it would haven been smirking. No fleet enema , I was sent a mental message - Colin responded with Message unaccepted- please rephrase and resend! So i, and I shudder to relate this, greased the opening with Vaseline and then summoned all abdominal muscles not busy doing something else, 1-2-3- PUSH PUSH PUSH, And Finally it popped and plopped, a little more vigorous shoving and relief was obtained . But back to the 2 times daily, M.O.M. evening of second day, I might as well resign myself to the fact I shall not have spontaeous 💩for a long time. And I am a 10 week old RnY with structure issues, and a puny liquid diet. By far NOT average, average is as close to inferior as it is to superior,and I fancy myself as superior, worthy of glory , praise and wonderment. Too many years of second string, second-rate, some man's slave/flunky/wife. Now Frustr8 shines clearly, brightly and with her own Star Power!🌟Twinkle Twinkle Frustr8's star, can you see me now shining far?
