    Gallbladder n sleeve together?

    Well you could be a candidate in the future, you young kids won't have scars on you4 belly l8ke me, mine went back in the bad old days when everything were open incisions. My WLS ones are fading fast, pretty soon they will be part of Stretch Mark City! Just think, I have a 2 month๐Ÿ‘ surgiversity coming up soon! ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ผ๐Ÿ‘ˆ
  5. If you can find them opt for a while the clear fruity protein drinks, my Wal-Mart seems 5o have deleted them. I mixed 6oz that, 6oz MinuteMaid 15 calorie fruit punch then filled bottle the rest of way with cold water. Still fruity but not as strong.

    Yes, but you were and are an excellent dog- mommy. This couldn't have been predicted, and for the short time you had, you loved each other. Treasure the memories! There may be a successor to Bella someday but heal your heart first, I hate to know you are sad, I have read andvreread all your posts and you're one I always look for. Sending a hug to you.๐Ÿ‘ผ๐Ÿถ
  7. Me too, sure wish OSU would do this. Might have lessened my heartbreak of a dozen black trash bags that maybe Goodwill might accept. Some of them I might have fitted into, but I have to move, and if I can find only an1 or 2 bedroom apartment, I won't have storage space. Do not plan a move,on a retirement budget, rentals are going so HIGH, wish I had a best egg left to put in, and I know if I were buying mortgage,payments would be,no,more and I would be my,own woman again.

    Gallbladder n sleeve together?

    8 to 5 odds he will, it would only benefit you to do so. Among my,other quirks I collect How Many Jokes How many surgeon's does it take to change a light bulb? Answer Only 1, but why don't we remove that socket? You're not using it and it will only cause you trouble in the future. So my best guess: He will. My general surgeon -way back- removed my appendix along with the gall bladder that really needed the surgery!๐Ÿ˜ท

    How did you pick your user name?

    One more and then I promise to let the subject die. See the more I ponder on it, I think maybe Daddy,loved me in his fashion but there was disfunction there. Last example my parents were married 6 weeks past their 50th Wedding Anniversary. Apparently the Sunday closest to the actual date they, between Sunday School and Church , renewed their vows. I knew nothing about it, one of my co-workers who also attended that church told me about it a week later. I felt l8ke I had egg on my face over that. She must have thought me a horrid daughter that I did not attend. Although I worked many weekends I did have that day off. S9 I went to their retirement flat to ask them, if they were planning such a thing, why was I not invited? Daddy's Rationale: I WAS NOT THERE WHEN THEY WERE MARRIED, WHY WOULD I WANT TO BE THERE THEN? Neither was the bulk of the Church people watching, the majority where my age or younger. And Fotr My Children, I still cry inside at that cruelty shown, I did my best to be good, cause no trouble, didn't date bad boys, truth be told I never dated anyone while under their roof. Brought home good grades, was never an embarrassment to the famility. Tell me, What mo4e could I do to win their love?๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ’ฆ

    Liquid intake worries!

    And every time I hear from you, you know you really are good for me, I do feel a little more like the fighter you say I am. This has been a long siege on liquids, sometimes I feel like I am innately flawed. That I never will get better, although I should remember my God don't make No Junk ! And as I keep looking at my problem, my surgical team should have been alerted if I had firmed one ulcer, I might make morem I believe I should have been on Carafate from the get-go. But I don't think there was any way that thecstricture could be predicted . Saw a study from Cleveland Clinic , 23% of RNY develop one, About a third of those 1 dilatation work an 6% in 2 and the remainder , like me , are going to require 3 or more. Now I am having trouble with signals, am I hungery- is it ulcer pain, because I have a grand total of 6 now- if I try more than liquids, will everything come up again? I don't find satisfaction from these soups and brothes, it's like my body is crying out for more food but my pouch won't let it happen.bUt please stay my friend, We will get through it all!
  16. @KevinK, I hope you don't mind if I follow al9ng with your stormy You see I had a son, he earned his angel๐Ÿ‘ผwings 10 and a years ago. I believe he is still watching over me, every time I feel lonely a Kevin pops up in my life to remind me I am not so alone. And you are the latest. I know things are going to,go well with you and you'll soon have a surgery date!

  20. Late MIL favorite mint was Velamints, she would eat them and eat them and then you could locate her in just one place, yeah and she would say " I just don't know why I am going SO MUCH?" I did!

    Liquid intake worries!

    Struggling this AM, trying to drink down my Strawberry Muscle Milk. Not tasting too good, telling myself I need it for the protein, so it is medicine. Longing for the day when other sources of protein can be re- lied on, I know I know stop brooding and get busy. But by 2 months I was hoping for a lot more fun than I am having.๐Ÿ˜ช๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

    Pain on the left/ ache

    Could it be from Dr Noria trying to stretch out my strictured stoma? Bit of a reach, but could it be?
  23. Nope I am at an opposite point. I am having to debulk 18 years of clutter, inheritance from dead relatives, and most all my winter weight clothing. I pray I continue to lose, I now have nearly 12 bags and I am not quite done. See I was retaining clothing from MIL(d.2003) son(d2008) husband (d2012) as well as things from my mama (also2003) , Emotionally,i is KILLING me, but unless I can find a house yet this week, I will be forced into a 1-2 Br apartment, I cannot afford $ 600 9n my widows Social Security. Rougher yet, landlord would like possession October 31, I will have,NO money until November 2nd, can I convince someone to let me move in. and pay them later that week? So much as I would like to,look that far ahead I am forced to try to rectify,sins of the Past.

    How did you pick your user name?

    F.M.C., please do me a courtesy. Your post jogged my memories and sometimes they are not good. Okay? Please reassure your children it is not their fault,you and Daddy are not together. I am an only child and for years I believed it was My Fault. I was so terrible a child that they never wanted another. So I spent,most of my childhood and part of my youth trying to make it up to them. I wanted to be so perfect that they never would regret having me. I was 15 or 16 before I found out I was a miracle, the baby,doctors thought she would never have. Why wasn't. I told sooner? Brace yourself for this- my Daddy thought it wouldn't matter to ME. So keep all your lines of communication open, the โค you keep from breaking might be your child's.Nuff said?
  25. I do pretty good, I think, and ever since my fertility interruptions, I no longer could multipy anyway!
