The Hardest Thread of My Life



Recommended Posts

Many of you knew him, some of you loved him. Now he's with me everywhere I go because I keep his tags close to my heart, and I have a new gold charm with his name inscribed for my charm Bracelet that I never leave home without.

My precious Voodoo got his angel wings a couple weeks ago and flew over the rainbow. Ya'll know how hard this is to post - my sweet furry protector, best friend, heart and soul, forever.

Awwww Lisa I'm sorry. Losing your best friend sucks! I have two furry ones and my hubby has made them both promise to never leave him.

Sending you good thoughts.

I am so sorry about your precious pet. I have two dogs of my own. Over the years I have several pets and I know I hard it is to bear. I send my sincere condolences to you.

Vooey always rushed fiercely at the front door like a brave soldier to determine whether it was friend or foe on his doorstep. Once he determined it was friend, he'd run frantically all over the house to find a toy to bring you - he just HAD to get you a toy as a welcome gift. This photo was the last time he ever played or slept with a toy; it's his squeaky Mayonnaise that Auntie Tabitha gave him. He went to Heaven with his favorite moo-cow.

Vera, Sachi is very hard to read. I was so worried about her that I immediately found another friend for her, but first I wanted them to meet. The meeting didn't go well at all, so I didn't adopt the other doggy. Maybe Sachi likes being the only child? But the good part is we have 2 friends with dogs that were never able to visit because Voo said, "NO!" Vooey was too protective of Mamma (and all food) to allow anyone other than Sachi in. But now Sachi has playdates, and she really enjoys Doobie (1 lb Minpin) and Laina (6 month old Collie.) Sachi and Laina swim together :scalesno:

I think she's okay because she doesn't mope around.

Lisa I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how hard it is for you. I love animals dearly, it breaks my heart looking at that photo. Hopefully happier times are to come.

Lisa, so very sorry about your dog. I know how much I love mine. They are the most loyal creatures in the world bar none, and have men beat by a mile...they don't talk back, they love you unconditionally, they don't argue; they don't care if their meals are late; they know when you are sad; and so many things. I'm sure you feel a huge void, as I would also. Get back to me if you can.

I'm so sorry for your loss Lisa. I hope it was quick and painless - preferrably while he was dreaming of chasing rabbits!

I love seeing your dog on the couch! I sometimes regret allowing it, but mine are couch dogs too. I wouldn't have it any other way! My MIL would probably stroke-out if she saw my dog jump up on my white formal living room couch! The way I see it - it's just a couch. My dogs (and cats) are family!

Hi Lisa,

I'm sorry for your loss, too. Reading threads like this reminds me why I don't want pets. :scalesno:

(P.S.: Good to see you!)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
