Frustr8

And I believe Emily Jane that you WILL BE ABLE to do it - not gonna be the easiest thing to do but I often believe our former weight had us stuck in Hades and now we deserve a chance for our HEAVEN. Work Work Work with what your Surgery can do for YOU, from the Lofty search of 13 months elapsed I know mine brought me the opportunity to become what I was always inside, a wonderful NEW ME- I am one- half the size I started AT , been staying at 180 or there-abouts, was 178.5 this AM before drinking and my morning smoothie time so artifically LOW, but I went through a lot to get where I am and diet alone could never done it for ME- believe I was once on Every diet in the Western World, even some I think were formulated from somebody's warped imaginarion, and had pitiful results- so 1/3 bariatric surgery, 1/3 Rocky recovery times and the rest? Bull- headed stubborness, I am a naturally strident redhead who no LONGER accepts what advice is faulty and misguided, even if I am not PERFECT I do give it my Best Shot and I am one heck of a Female although I'm still a Lady too!

Happy Thanksgiving - Day 28- rather relsted- I got my Metro approval in the mail yesterday- Still have to endure a Orientation lecture next week- if rotten non- compliance landlord. still refuses to lower rent(2/3rds of my monthly Social Security is Excessive) after Today I can recall places- don't have one designated area development here for Metro- eligible but there are a few. rental complexs that will ACCEPT- now to find one Small Pet friendly, senior slightly handicaped, like no steps to climb, that is looking forward to 2 non- drinkers, smokers, drug- free, quiet non- drivers near designated bus/taxi routing- Don't Ask Much , do I? Be nice if there was laundry access, one nice thing about here was kitchen appliances, washer/dryer furnished and I didn't have to pay for Water, sewer or refuse pick-up. But it was small, 2nd BD so small it should have been mud or storage room with no closets to speak of. Still I am getting Too Old to look forward to uprooting AGAIN but IT IS WHAT IT IS and I am getting tired of the FIGHT. Now that I AM Smaller if landlord wants to "Kick- box" I have the mobility to go a few rounds if necessary. Stay Tuned and if There is an Update, you know I Tell All!

And another reason for Right Subcostal pain is Jejuneal ulcerations, many, myself included, retain just enough acidic gastric juices to wreak havoc on your small intestine, be it duodenal or jejuneal, I Will carry carry scarring the remainder of my missbegotten LIFE and be at risk for (gasp) stricture, stenosis and torsion, and I have a gastroenterologist sworn paperwork on THAT!

Good to See. 👀You Again @ Icebarbie, think I remember you from " back in the day" BEFORE. You did give ME hope I wasn't alone in the Battle when mine started veering around!

Even if I NEVER actually wear a Bikini, thanks to my weight loss I can throw away my ugly bland Granny- type swimsuit with the skirt and go to a 2-piece in a bright pretty color. I'm dressing like someone proud of ME not ugly Puritan colors! Not Never No More!

I💗 my Nutribullet as much as one can an inanimate object!!!

Well often you only hear from Squeaky Wheels, smooth- running. tends to be Quite Quiet- but ME? But ME, you'll hear from ME you'll hear from ME and My struggles until somebody beats ME with a Board to shut me up- WAS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED but 85-90% good, so the trade- off is tolerable and I will be still trucking🚚 a while longer upon this 🌎 Earth!

And once again I lost my entire juicy enhanced Protein Shake Breakfast yesterday morning- Gee Whilickers THIS gets so OLD- probably peeve and look like I am ungrateful the powers that be at OSU Bariatric surgery but I want a t-shirt stating " Gastrointestinally Crippled- Slightly" today things are better but I may never be the Poster Child Success I once dreamed of Being- but Still it Is what it is, perhaps like the Biblical Esau I sold my " Birthright" and I now am reaping the whirlwind of THAT decision. But 1/2 the size I started AT...... GOOD..... but I have gone through' Purgatory on Earth" to get There.

I am a work in PROGRESS- too busy becoming the PERSON I was meant to be to entertain worries and fears. TODAY becomes the start of BEAUTIFUL days for ME for there is No Limit to What I May Become.

Add children , at 365+ I was DD, now at 180 I am barely a B, I EXPECTED to lose my Hubba Hubba Heinie and my Belly Paunchn who'd of Thunk the Boobsters would go Bye Bye Also? But I 'll not whine and kvetch, I am the only one of my Teen BBF who hasn't had a mastectomy or 2 by NOW, so mini- sized as they are, THEY are still present and accounted for, and weirdly they are not floppy, saggy or with the nipples pointing due South, they are just slightly AWOL at nearly 74. So Life still goes on and DD might look sadly "plastic" with a size 16 (well really a 15ish Junior) body--- sort of like I got a Campership from Dolly Parton to "Big Boob Land" . So a big Fat Juicy smile 😝😝😝of Acceptable from yours TRULY!
