Frustr8

Not to mention the" burn" in your reconstructed stomach, not kind to wounded gastric linings.

I do Green Tealael. My question is whether it's from weight being lost or the fact,i'm taking my Lasix as PCP ordered. I do so hate men telling me what to do even if they have D.O or M.D. after their name.

Sounds kinda yummy to me! Of course after 18, going into 19 days of liver-shrinking, peanut butter on a piece of cardboard sounds good!

Well I'm still slogging towards surgery losing a pound here or there. If I am at 320 or a little less at 2 And a half weeks before surgery, when will I break the 300 pound barrier? Will it be right after surgery or a few more weeks down the road? I know I'll feel so proud about ME when I do!

Definitely not alone, there are a bunch currently,slogging through on our road to surgery. The GOOD NEWS? We'll be dancing,in the post-surgical Sunlight soon!🌝

And how is YOUR liver-shrinking going?

And never think if you speak another language it is excusable! A story to illustrate my point- My very good friend Martha. Her father was Amish, fell in love and married outside the faith. He was extremely lucky his family didn't totally" shun" him, because they almost always do. At any rate Eli remembered and still honored many of the basic tenets of his former faith. He taught all children respectful actions and the German-Swiss language of his ancestors. Martha worked with me at the local Wal-Mart, a place many of our local Amish patronize. Martha is waiting on 2 Amish women who proceeded to make snide remarks about" the stupid ugly English( Amish term for people outside their faith) girl who was trying to serve them!" Martha had just enough to make her 😠 angry! She said in perfectly spoken German " Thank you very much for your observation, ladies. Shall I give Bishop Yoder, my grandfather, your fine regards?. 2 very embarrased, bright-red faced Amish ladies headed for the front of the store where they could pay for their purchases and leave. Final score Martha 1 Amish Women with loose tongue 0

And He Will! He loves us as a Shepherd does, helping the weaker lambs until they can be healed and rejoin the flock. And as He watches over the tiniest sparrow he will watch over our friend until she is whole again! Don't we Serve an Awesome God? Lets agree on this in 🙏prayer!

Catches more flies than vinegar do! But what if our poster isn't into insects,today, that's a whole new ball game!

We hope surgery will fix everthing but often the other problems still remain. Hope everything gets under control!

Whew this does need addressed! Dizziness is one thing, passing out and hurting your shoulder is another. Let us know any updates, please?

I'm so sorry, you must feel like everything you're been eating runs right through. Sure hope they get a handle on it soon.

Well good luck with your plans. I hope they work out for you.

Now that makes sense because that's how I nuke my tea!

Well it is Ragweed season in Ohio, I would like to take Roundup to each,and every plant! My worry? Sometimes this kicks. my sinusitis into gear and I fear getting a bacterial superinfection there. Its less than 3 weeks until my Surgery,Day, the culmination of 3 long sorrow-filled years. There,is an implicit threat if you are sick 2 weeks before they may consider postponing your surgery. Can't have that, I'm alreay taking,Zyrtec every night, maybe start taking hot tea? And I already thought to up my Vitamin C. Anybody got a shaman in reserve? In Evangelical church the line is Lift my ____up in prayer! If I say Lift my nose up in prayer, it sounds like I'm asking to be made "stuck-up"! What do I do now?

Oh that's our girl, you've come so far, done,your preparstions, made plans. Don't stop, full speed ahead to success!😛👍🌈

Thinking of you @ Hope2. May your surgery. today (August 18) go welln and may you have a smooth event-free healing. It is always wonderful to meet new friends on here.😛

I do have 2 replacement knees, don't think,of them as artificial, they're mine now. How will,they work when I weigh less? IDK , I can hope well, can't I? We shall see, stay tuned folks, this might be interesting.

You don't have to chop it yourself, have your chair syled by a professional, they can work with what you have and make it not look raggedy. You are somebody, pamper yourself a little. You can grow it back out later if you want, okay?

Well Jultrim you will be the same Jultrim,nomatter what changes on the outside. Tell him you will be a much better sexual athlete afterwards. The better you can move, the more you can let your emotions flow, And he will be the beneficiary of all this! More mattress mambo, you could possibly set those sheets on 🔥 fire! Most men do grove on this! While we fantasize about love , flowers and beautiful music, men are more elemental and sorry to say simplistic. While we are feeling soft warm loving,feelings their inner,voice is chanting," I'm getting laid, yes yes yes I'm getting laid!" Poor darlings, their wiring is not quite right when it comes to interpersonal relationships! Late husband said "Come on , let's go to bed, we can talk later" he was hoping his prowess would be sufficent that I would forget what I wanted to talk about. It was nice, but I didn't lose my mind after all! Best efforts went to waste but I was too much of a lady to point it out!

Whew what a nest of hornets were aroused! Be assured you are our sister and we Bariatric Pals protect our own.-Virginia RN. What they did was so ethically wrong, we hate bullies of any kind, that was verbal bullying as well as violating HIPAA. Of all the advice I believe I prefer Orchids and Dragons. If that approach does not work, take it up a step, no surgeon wants his staff to bring discredit,on him, he is very dependant on public opinion, Bad office staff= NO Patients NO patients= No practice, at least in That Town. Hits him right in the Wallet!

I suspect,mine will be cheesy potato soup, but,i will make sure it has extra protein to it. Make slider into a slow semi-slider. I realized recently most of my comfort foods have a calorie count, so either give them up or make them a little less sinful. Of course I haven't had my surgery so I could be worried about October food.
