  1. At this point you have got to trust that it will be okay. Don't tie yourself up in "nots", I should not have done that. I should of have done this. Why didn't I? All it will do is upset you and make you tense. You are going to be just fine. Relax, little one, Relax.


  2. 3 Future NSV I am hoping for:#1
    sitting on a plastic chair and not have it make embarrassing sucky noises, also to have chairs with arms nor bite into my thighs. #2 Relatives letting me sit on their,good furniture instead of getting a sturdy wooden one from. the kitchen or their porch.#3 sitting and swinging on a porch swing. Last time I tried relative kept looking at the pitch ceiling to see if I bent the hooks out or snapped the chain. Many things have a 200 or 250 lb weight limit.
    And when I achieve these things I will shout,it from the highest roof, right after I post on Bariatric Pal!πŸš©πŸ˜›πŸš©


  3. And I hope things will go smoothly for you Passport! The same day you are having your surgery I will be meeting with my Dr Needleman for my presurgical consult, so I hope to be followingπŸ‘£close behind you, and as it gets closer I keep getting more and more excited. July is a beautiful wonderous month for us all!πŸ˜›πŸ‘πŸ˜›


  4. Not one any longer in my town but Ryan's Steakhouse/Buffet. Family almost always got diarrhea and I have vomited more than once and it wasn't from over-filling my stomach although it was an All You Can Eat buffet, what's the use of that when All You Eat comes back up?😫


  5. Good rules If you can't stand the pain and thing,it is worth the trip. If you have tried easy home remedies and they aren't working. If you are bleeding and it's bright red blood, if it isn't your time of month or you are bleeding from a body opening that usually blood does come out of, if you can't reach your doctor and you thinkit can't wait another day, if you're not urinating, if you are vomitting and you think you are going to pass out, if you can't drink and your skin "tents", that means if you take a pinch of your skin and it doesn't flatten out. Those are some actions that deserve attention, better to to go and find out it's nothing or easily managed than to imperil your life staying home. Most things get better by the morning, but some of these won't. Hugs!πŸ˜›


  6. I would try to he Torani flavorings, add the Peanut Butter stuff they talk about on here, I think it's called PB2 or even stirring a little Crystal Light,powder in. Add it Roto something b else already on your diet, one girl says she even mixed it with salsa, don't know if I would go that far, but taste buds are. different. I used to stir,peanut butter into strawberry ice cream before I started on this reformulation of my body. Oh and also peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches.πŸ˜›πŸŒˆ


  7. I am also 5ft8in , started out at 355 last October, now down to 321. Slow loss I guess but I have the Basal Metabolism Rate of a slug on antidepressants, that's what happens when you are 72 and postmenopausal. But anyhoo I'm still going forth. Tuesday 7/17/2018 I meet with Dr Needleman for my presurgical appointment and hope to get an assigned surgical date also then.I am praying for a before the end of July one. That said even after that happens I'm still hanging around, Bariatric Pal has been very good to me and if I can pay it forward and help newbies to,the process nothing would please me more. Scared? Heck no, I drowned my fears in my tears long ago. Now I yearn to complete my journey, if I have to crawl down the broken glass causeway of a liquid pre-diet I will do that also. My RnY surgery means that much in my life, and I will not falter towards that GOAL. So if you would like to be friends I would be honored. Any questions, I can answer for you I would be happy to do. And,if by chance I don't have the answer someone else on Bariatric Pal will.πŸ’₯πŸ˜›πŸ’₯


  8. Aww how,could anyone not ❀Frankie? Interspecies love is rare but then you knew she was rare and special from the beginning. I am very glad SHE adopted,YOU.


  9. I'm a weird little puppy, I am actually looking forward to the liquid pre-diet. Yes I know it is like a living purgatory but at the end I will get my surgery, that is my GOAL, I'll crawl across the broken glass causeway if it gets me to my RnY and a chance for a successful future life!πŸ‘‰πŸ˜›πŸ‘ˆ


  10. knowing how many insurance companies( and yes they are definitely seeking good profits not to do good for others) rationlize things, bariatric shakes are a vanity,item, not normal for healthy nutritional pursuit. Not saying,I agree but then these are the same people who told me pregnancy was an avoidable disease and why should they have to extend maternity coverage? Yep happened to me personally.😫

    Rice hurts my stomach. I have a sleeve and am five years out.

    Exactly so, my son,loves it, but the last time I tried it sat like a brick in my stomach, and I am still pre-surgical, when I get to the appropriate stage in the future it still won't return.
