    untill everyone screams . So here we go Hw355. CW321 SW to be determined SD 9/05/2018 Location Ohio State University- Wexner Medical Center in Columbus Ohio with my surgeon Dr Bradley J Needleman 7Am EDT Type of surgery RnY bypass and Hiatal Hernia repair And those are my true stats along with the fact I have been an active Bariatric Pal member since December 2017. Any other facts on my profile are erroneous except,that I am a Wonderful Person. Probably. it doesn't say that anyway!

    I have complained before but nothing seems to have happened. As an example I will be having surgery September 5th, I cannot get it to enter. Yet it says I had surgery in 2014 and I wasn't even active on Bariatric Pal at that time and I can't delete that. I'm about,ready to close each posting with all my facts over and over un
  3. On my way to Wally world, let me see what options they have in the grocery, I was thinking of cream of celery but I shall investigate.
  4. And I'm sorry @ Marisol Unda, my phone wanted to change your name, it can be cute that way!πŸ˜₯
  5. Madison my friend @ LynnV1964 in Southwestern Ohio will make you a good ESG,buddy also be checking into that Forum on Bariatric Pal. There aren't as many as VSG people but there are a few. Seems to be done more overseas than in the US or Canada. And if you want an all'purpose new surgery friend please consider me. I will be having an RnY September 5th but I am still a pretty nice person.

    Does my buddy @ Orchids and Dragons know you have arrived? She lives in a South Side Fort Worth suburb, is a sleeved so knows a lot about "sleeve,mechanics" so would make you a great resource person. She has been there when I've had questions, and I have had more than a few. And if you have any questions you need answered. either I or someone else may have just the right answer. Your doctor and his staff,have a lot of "book learning" but often we have walked the walk and have practical experience. Welcome Again!
  9. I had a wiseacre doctor look at me and say Funny,your X-Ray says your skeleton is Thin! Don't think he graduated from the Patch Adam's MD school of Humor!

    Abbreviations

    I like WN for what now? Also COP for crazy other,poster although that's putting someone down so seldom used. That and WFS for Wrong Forum Stupid usually addressed to woman posting in male only forum like the Guys Room. Strange how we don't,protest,when guys invade ours, probably because we outnumber them. Okay NHNF, no harm, no foul!

    Hard lump under incision

    I remember another poster a month or 2 back, was posting to ask about,it because she said,it looked like a big goofy dimple. Said while she was posting, she felt a ping, looked down and it had flattened out. Still asked him at her next office visit, he chuckled, said it was a re-enforcing stitch,which would,release when your innards were healed enough. She joked that she thought she would have it forever,and had considered putting a decorative jewel in it!

  15. A lot of Bariatric professionals DON'T LIKE GUMMIES! Why? Look at the label- the first ingredient is corn syrup, if you are just coming off a carbohydrate addiction is THAT a GOOD IDEA? My surgeon or NUT would say NO NO, BAD LITTLE FRUSTR8!
  16. If all else fails just still be keying in @ the pen name, it comes up as "KRush mentioned you" on my gmail because I run off of Android app instead of sit down or laptop computer. So even poor beknighted folk like me get the message too.πŸ‘πŸ˜πŸ“

But thought I was geeting enough milk for The calcium, IDK guess I was wrong.

    Wow Lynn, you are both motivated and a business woman. My hat is offf to you .It has to say This is my JOB and that is for ME. You know it is rather weird, I did used like pizza and do still get it for,my,son. Last time we had any I tried a mini piece, must be the crust, it sat in my stomach. So you might think I'm awful or low classed. I order Marco's. I really don't care too much for Dominos flavor recipe, maybe familiar breeds contempt? Marco does have something that I do like. I order their meatball bake. A 5 by 7-8 inch pan, no crust, meatballs and Italian sausage chunks in a nice marinara sauce. And I usually eat 1/4 to 1/3 and freeze the rest for later. That way Tomkitten's feelings don't get bruised as he chomps away. I'm having some trouble this AM, woke up with an achy bladder. The last once or twice I have had a flare it doesn't feel my traditional cystitis, used to hurt do bad I would have to lie with a hot washcloth or hot water bottle between my legs. Instead of a rubber one I use an empty dishliquid bottle size. Now I routinely take Ditropan for spasms, was on Macrobid, prescription ran out, did an infection return, do another course or ask for a different anti- infective or is it just super concentrated this AM? used to chug a bottle down, now since I am supposed be deleting this action, multiple mini-sips? I do have a very nice urologist, live that man, well as much as you can someone who spends time sitting between your thighs . a Dr Clemens is part of a 3 tinkle. doctor practice. They cover my local hospital , St Ann's,in Westerville as well as the other Mount Carmels, Columbus State Street Downtown, East on East Broad near Reynoldsburg, Grove City and occasionally the Surgical Hospital at New Albany. HE,himself is in Mount Vernon Friday's and alternate Wednesdays, never met his partners Drs Henry and Brown. So. I will start drinking a bottle every hour, I loathe room temp water but I do have a couple calorie free vaieties I can stand, Propel, G2 and Nestle Splash. In goes the fluid, perhaps the,pain goes away. Already took,my Ditropan, just hurts like someone kicked me down there, no visible blood , no burning or cramping as soon as I go and that's how traditional cystitis always used to act. I just don't quite know? No spicy food to trigger it over the weekend, IDK.

    well I haven't had anything done, cut out carbs almost completely, deleated soda pop and sweetened drinks, went from regular, to 2% And now 1% m8lk. Doubt I'll go to,skim as of yet. Made 1% cottage cheese. my go- to for extra protein. dropped regular cheese, that hurt more than giving up snacks, I ❀Gouda, Swiss and Cheddar, the sharper the better. But I sacrificed for medical science and this Wednesday , I start a month of prediet to get ready for my Wonder Wednesday, my REBIRTHDAY on September 5th. Honestly I could wait until the 8th but I want the best results so I'll start early. πŸ’ŠπŸ™πŸΆπŸ˜°πŸ“
