Things that got stuck in your orifices.

I don't have any fun stories to share. I've always told my husband that if certain things got stuck in certain places...I would just die with them in there, because when you go to the ER to have stuff removed...it's all over the hospital within the hour-screw confidentiality. Bob almost got stuck one time, but I was able to grab on to the cord and retrieve him. He didn't seem to mind.

Me and DH stayed in this fancy hotel one time. After a session of playing, "So this is your first visit to the gynecologist." and me innocently saying Uh, huh. Well, we couldn't find the remote. It showed up the next day, but we joked that everytime I took a step, the channel would change.

I've had a chicken bone stuck in my throat, and no I wasn't having sex with a chicken. I'm from Arkansas, but I have my limits.

I've been constipated before....does that count? :)

When I was a kid we were up in the mountains and I found a pine cone that had pine nuts in it. So they seemed a perfect fit for my kid sized nose. Hooo boy did I get in trouble. Also got a penny stuck up there one time. Got lectured but good about sticking things up my nose on the ride home from the dr's office both times.

I'm not big on sticking random items in my hoo-hoo. Other than BOB or a real flesh and blood bf of course.....Dunno, that just never "did it" for me.

LMAO about "taking a step and the channel changes"

Nope, I never was one for sticking things where they didn't belong.

My son, when he was first learning to feed himself... well. I'd made him a plate of scrambled eggs, all big and fluffy... they all went up his little button nose. The whole plate of eggs.< /p>

I stuck a bead from a friends necklace that broke up my nose once when I was in first grade. I then got a very bad nose bleed, that did not stop. I was embarrassed about the bead and thought I would get in trouble, so I did not tell. My parents took me to the ER because of the nose bleed, and the doctor removed the bead. I feigned innocense. To this day my mother teases me about it.

And DH got stuck one time. LOL It was before we were married. My dad came home early to take us to a Mariner's game. Yes, we were one of those couples that got stuck together due to me freaking out and "clamping down". Thankfully my dad knew better when I told him "DO NOT COME IN HERE! IT WILL BE MORE PAINFUL TO YOU THAN IT WILL BE TO ME, AND I ALREADY HURT ALOT!!" He said "Okay" and we went to the game about 30 minutes later. No one talks about it since then. LOL

What timing, my gson stuck a red Tictac up his nose Sunday, he's two. He went running to his mom and pointing to his nose saying it hurt. He was telling me on the phone about his ordeal and I asked him how'd he get it out and he said, "I sneeze Nana", poor little thing, I bet that Cinnamon burned.

When my sister and I were little we were eating peanuts and we decided to stick them up our nose for some reason.... Well, my dad saw us and told us to stop. He started working on getting my sister's out first and told me not to touch mine, but I thought I would save him the trouble and get it out myself... Well, needless to say, I pushed it up there further and he had to take me to the ER to get it sucked out. Yep, they sucked it out in a long clear plastic tube and the Dr. got it and asked me if I wanted to keep it. I will never forget that.

To this day... I get teased about that.

When I was a kid I pulled the "pills" off my blanket and shoved them up my nose. Well, according to my mom, I started smelling - she kept giving me baths - to no avail. She took me to the doctor who took one whiff of me and proclaimed that I had something in my nose. She got out the tweezers and pulled a half a blanket out of my nose. Gross.

When I was 6 I stuck a small stud type earring up my nose. It was stuck way up near my sinus and I had to go to the ER to have it removed. I still get nosebleeds in that nostril.

Well, this doesn't actually qualify for stuck but.... Everybody's been sick in my house. My 11 month old has an ear infection. They started him on antibiotics and it gives him diarrhea. So when he started with the runs yesterday, I wasn't sure if it was a stomach bug or a reaction to the antibiotics. Well, he started vomiting at 1:20 this am. Kept vomiting until 2:15am. Also had more diarrhea. Gave him some Water at 7:00am to see if he could keep it down....no. Took him to the doctor. Changed his diaper while we were there and guess what I find in his poop?

A DIME!!

I didn't tell the doc, because I was SO embarrased. Thankful, it could have lodged in his airway...Thank God it didn't. Thank God it didn't give him a bowel obstruction. They gave him a shot for nausea. Figured it wouldn't hurt since everybody else in this house if puking.

:)

So see, money is the root of all evil.

Once I had an awful time removing one of those "Today" sponges. I was sitting on the edge of the bathtub crying, thinking I don't want to have to go to the ER for this!!!

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
