Zombie Apocalypse… with sleeve?



Recommended Posts

So, I have just begun the insurance process to have my sleeve surgery! And I'm very very anxious and excited to have it done :)

But… what if in the future there's a zombie apocalypse?? Right? Please tell me I'm not the only one that had this run though their mind :)

Like what if you have a limited supply of food and when you have to eat you need to be able to eat a lot and store your food sort of? I'm just sayin…

I guess at least I'll be in better shape to run away from them though!

he he he you're funny!

I'm a fan of the genre as well.

Always gotta have your zombie contingency plan, right?!?! lol

But yes, I think that being of a healthy weight and more physically fit is a better state to be in -- in ANY case (not just zombie apocalypse). But if there were zombies.... you'd be able to run faster & jump higher.

LOL

And if you're in a group of people, remember you don't have to be the fastest person, you just have to be faster than the slowest person. ha

I thought about this. A lot.

I think this is saving us in the event of the zombie apocalypse.

food will be in short supply. We can survive on less.

Sleevers will be the survivors. Done. I paid my deposit the next day. Cut me open doc.

Let's do this.

You forgot one of the most important lessons from Zombie Land - The 1st to go were the fatties.

Rule 1: Cardio: This one comes up in Zombieland and clearly makes alot of sense. How many fat people do you see at the end of the world when its zombies.

This thread is so awesome! And Joatsaint had it right! The 1st to go were the fatties. The next thing to do is go to CA and get some good makeup and blend in like Bill Murray.

Well, first we need to establish what kinds of zombies we'll be facing. Are we talking fast zombies, slow zombies, herds, solos... Each potential zombie horde will impact how we should approach it. I suggest stockpiling Protein heavy rations just in case. How long does Jerky last, anyone know?

Oh I've got a total whack job survivalist friend... he says he can make jerky that can last me 5+ years!!

Now that I say that I realize it seems odd that this has recently come up in conversation... but it is what it is... hahaha

      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.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
