  1. Keep up with fluids, you get rid of the endproducts from weight loss by washing them away. And maybe this is your own body#s way of doing things. Keep on keeping on, the victory is yours just out of sight!
  2. A dy-no-mite result, and the outside world thinks nothing good happens in just one year? Baby you done proved them wrong!
  3. I think he may a brother-in-law of Average Joe. I believe they may be in the same family. And I agree, Norm has a lot of P.R. but no substance.
  4. Bypass, I'm your height, started at 355, at least that's when my wake-call came, might have even gotten a shosh higher, that was a year ago. 335 in April-May when after I escaped an asshat surgeon, went to Ohio State University where I was treated with respect, kindness and they were not afraid of my age-72, 330 when I got my date of September 5th, that was July, did liver shrinking diet the month of August, Surgery morning at319, bypass surgery was success, at 6 weeks I am down to 293 (this Am) , I have a natural sluggish BMR, plain diets didn't help me , and I have tried everyone out there and some few have heard up to and including strucured starvation. The b6pass for me is a wonderful tool. Hope to use it clear down to my dream of 175 if I can. And I am losing fat in the dangers places, neck, forearms, but the belly that no before diet touched, its actually not as blubberific, my rump, well I am losing my fat pad there, hurts to sit too long on hard chairs, but guess what? I have renewed energy, I don't want to sit down as much! Oh I had and still a few blips on my road, but still I have more hopes at 293 than I did over 350, and I would not change or regret the surgery I have gone through.
  5. Ohio state University does also, in fact I suspect every Medical College in the Big10 does.?
  6. sitting sipping some warm Yogi herbal tea, wondering if I will ever get fixed so I can grow healthier. I'm impatient, one of my failings.
  7. it's a bypass with only 1 anastomosis, and I have heard billed similar to what you said Also think might call it an Omega loops. Not done too often in US and Canada but they do them a lot overseas.
  8. would it be a SIP-S xoxococojay?
  9. Hidden tell him you'll bring him a bag of white flour and a box of Powdered sugar, then the 6 pounds will be s1uare and you can move on. Besides if you are going he slim you don't need either of those items anymore.?
  10. It's a Brand new world for,you, when you get to the part where you merely feel the Garde rolled backwards over you, you'll know you're on the way again to health.,So happy for,you!
  11. so happy your day has come, now you have made it through and Good Things are ahead. Now Let Those Good Times Roll!
  12. hi again. Thought I was doing better, strained veggie soup, creamed st rained soups, half and protein shakes, early afternoon here, had sensation I was interpeting as hunger, made thin maltomeal cereal with a little low-fat 1% milk stirred in A,mistake, 2t notice not T but t, and and I'm upchucking again. 6 weeks 1 day out and this set in at least a month, maybe 5 weeks ago. I'm crying?how could something so beautiful be gone so sour? A week from tomorrow Dr Noria is scheduled to a repeat EGJ, can I limp along to then? Should I at least check in with a nurse Practioner in Columbus? My,local community hospital, I guess if I got dehyrated enough they know to hang a bag of fluid, but they don't know much about Bariatrics and rny bypass, it would be like a peacock parachutin into a flock of chickens "What. do WE do with YOU?". I guess I was foolish to think Precious Pouch could handle such a foodstuff, but my Surgery Twin sleevers and bypassers, they are starting on soft,food by now. I'm a nice person, should I be punished?
  13. AshMarie794 so good to see you still around, I'm still hanging out here too.
  14. Proud of you, keep on this way You have started! Surgery Victory Ahead!?

    Just stick a bookmark in the novel. Somewhere out there is Someone to make Beautiful Music ?with. I never will give up hope for YOU!
  16. I used to have that cartoon on my fridge. Surgeon standing therein things flying up from his patient. Caption: Dang , she was right! She was full of butterflies! Hope yours all fly away before they have to spray Raid or something! Best Wishes for a Wonderful surgery and Future Life!??
  17. And are you getting close to going home? And how is 5his day going for you??
  18. NSAIDS are not good on healing stomachs, that's why Tylenol is recommend insteadm
  19. Happy Birthday. ? in Advance, what a gift YOU are giving YOU this year, this is something you cannot surpass!
  20. And you're making your own kind of music , marching on your own trail toward your goal weight. I could tell you how much I have lost since my surgery on September 5th, and you might sniff a little, say that's not fair! But if you see any of my other posting where I say the amount, keep in mind. I am not uncomplicated a path, I am losing so much because I have a stoma stricture, no purees or solids get through, once that gets fixed my precipitous weight descent will level out and I'll be more realistic. Don't woryy, that's your surgeon and bariatric teams problem, let them guide you, they know your case better than we do. We will cheer with you when you reach your goals, promise!?
  21. Strangely this makes me more relaxed, it's as though I know I'm not the only one after all.
  22. What is it going to benefit anyone to have your Operating Room smell like a cheap? fish market? OMG I hope they have ventilation!
  23. well I guess I could be nausea green but I was trying to state "Nausea Free"
  24. Still not totally nausea green 6 weeks today.
