NASH and Thrombocytopenia-(low platelets)
Bummer-I was hoping good things were starting to happen for you. The old line is "It's for the Best" not certain of that but at least you're stable and not worsening. The 27th you'll know more? That's only a little over 2 weeks but it seems like forever, doesn't it? Well I'll always be anxious to hear how the story plays out. You've always got me as a friend. Keep me updated.

Clothing During Rapid Weightloss Months
I have a few worn out Playtex, haven't replaced them because I hope my band size might go down to a 40 or so where there's more hope of finding C cups. Last person I exhibited them to said Well you are a big girl but not exceptional large there! Should have kicked him in his stethoscope, the gynecological twit![emoji15] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

What article @ Sosewsue? All I see is your post, that of[mention=14356]Fluffy[/mention] Chix and the statement that I'm going to love something. Only Harry Potter was into invisibility cloaks. God knows I love many things in life but not a mystery I can't solve. So huh? Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Need to vent -- post op sleeve
Zoftig girl---- you using the term" baby doctor" reminded me of another of my stories. I was laboring with baby# 2 in a teaching hospital, coincidently the same one I'll be having my Bariatric surgery at. Resident leading a bunch of interns around. Stood right by my bed and pronounced " this gravid uterus of 6cm dilitation" at this,point I interrupted him and said " this uterus is surrounded by a living breathing human being who is perfectly capable of hearing you. Hi my name is....." He turned red and then apologized, and I was not a little sorry that I embarassed him.Appears the interns weren't the,only ones who had something to learn that day.[emoji13] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Welcome Dan and hurrah for taking this step forward. Yes your grandson needs his grandpa to teach him things. Your posting made me harken back to my own maternal grandfather and the things I learned from him. That's where I gained my fascination with weather and the changing of the seasons. He would take me for walks around his farm, tell me about different things and sometimes we would just sit and watch the clouds. I always,enjoyed his company and he always seemed to have time for me his little,redhead grandgirl. From him I also learned to enjoy reading the Bible. He told me no matter how many times he would read it he would gain new insights. Your grandson needs Grampy to teach him him how to fish, maybe hunt one day,but,certainly to be his hero and also his friend.Now with the weight commitment you are making there's very good chance you'll,be around to enjoy each other. Pictures are nice but they never replace a living breathing and loving life grandpa ! Best wishes for both of you,now and in the future. And hi from me in the the Central part of Ohio.[emoji13] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Dr Weiner says people with mobility issues should choose bypass, it was covered in one of his YouTube tapes. I would say that would my choice, but I'm not you, its your body, maybe you should discuss it with your surgeon, okay?[emoji12][emoji338][emoji12] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Clothing During Rapid Weightloss Months
Know where you are coming from, for my weight I'm smallish only a C at 323. What I am is an extremely oversized Junior, unfortunately Juniors don't go to a 27 or 29 which is where I'd be. I in all probability will end up after weight loss a 15 and that will,be perfectly cool. Don't plan on being a clothing or swimsuit model at 72, I want to be trimmer fitter and healthier. I could rock Dina Merrill or even Grace Kelly easier than Pink or Lady Gaga when all's said and done. Even Cybill Shepherd or Candice Bergen. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app
