Thread Killers

Still and all, I sometimes miss one of the posters who was banned. She started some of the best threads on the whole forum!

I tried to gracefully bow out but she wouldn't stop and her pals joined in. It was just bloody awful. I was stunned. Right after that I learned that she and some of her cohorts in crime were banned. I hardly knew what hit me. Several really nice folks PM'ed me and that kept me from fleeing forever.

Bjean,

I encountered a similar situation on another board. It seems every board has it's own pack of wolves. I got several PM's from others on the board telling me not to let them bother me, and not to leave. BUT! After some reading in that board's equivalent of the rants and raves section, I realized that most of the posters were very young ... not so mature, and not very knowledgeable. It's ashamed that people can gang up like this, and it seems to happen with all age groups and all sorts of people. Sorry it happened to you, glad to hear your opinion, even if it's dissenting, as long as it's politely put.

Evilah

AND ON TO BRIGHTER THREAD KILLING SUBJECTS...

let's let the cheese age awhile

So this is probably a male version of what I will look like at goal. How is that for depressing?

Mmm, actually it's still better than where I've been.

Now I know what the Flying Nun's son looks like....:) I can die happy.

*laughing* I know, right? When I first saw it, it didn't really register and I thought the poor boy was melting. Then I was inspired with the idea of flight... flying squirrel style.

Did you realize that if we wait to kill this thread for a page or so, some lucky bandster will have post #1000 on this train-wreck?

I am reading a new book - "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver. Apparently you can make your own cheese! Mozzarella in 30 minutes! Cream cheese even faster? It might be worth a shot, at least a fun activity for an afternoon.

Hmmm..... As it happens, I have enjoyed every Barbara Kingsolver novel I have read and I am deeply in love with cheese. In fact I got fat by eating cheese, lots of cheese! Weird, eh?

I guess this thread cannot be killed!

My favorite is stinky blue cheese. Especially nice fattening blue cheese

dressing. Unfortunately, these days it's fat free Italian with 10 measly

calories per Tablespoon.

I think it's the subtle nuances that give it such realistic flair, don't you? The little kitty turds draped artfully across the edge of the pan are the perfect touch. Everyone who has ever owned a cat can appreciate that. They always manage to miss the pan and poop on the edge of the tray at least once a day!

You cannot gain more than the weight of the item you eat. A five pound box of chocolates will produce a weight gain of no more than five pounds.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
