As long as I don't end up looking like Daniel Tosh (Tosh.O)' date=' I'll be happy. :D[/quote']

Actually, you will probably look like that at the end of the weight loss phase because of loss of muscle. You will then have to work hard to put back on the muscle which will increase your weight by 10-15 lb. I am in this phase right now and can tell you it is hard work and slow going.

Yep, of my 85-ish pounds lost, 30-something was muscle. My legs are so thin and weak I couldn't run if my arse was on fire!

Oh, I'm pretty much finished with my weight loss, other than about a pound or so a month now. But a few months after surgery I was progressing toward looking like that as most of my muscle had left me there for a while. :o

Superhero... Wolverine. That man is so ridiculously proportionately beautiful- it's almost strange. Maybe he's an alien...

Magic Mike... Joe M (however that Italian last name is spelled) who is also on Trueblood. He's the whole reason I saw that movie, which was really kind-of depressing imo! However, I'll watch Trueblood reruns just to get glimpses of dear Joe! ;)

That said, my last major real life crush was on a bald Korean guy who is far more Buddha than Boy Toy. It's all about the personality and brain! :) Most of the time the really hot guys just shouldn't talk. They should just sit there and look pretty because talking usually ruins it! ;) I'm sure there are hot guys who are smart, funny and nice... this is all very tongue in cheek, so no haters... :)

Oooo - I second Wolverine! Thor has a nice body but I'm not too interested in the big hulky type. But Wolverine is perfect, and a bit of a bad boy!

I almost forgot green lantern played by Ryan Reynolds. Ladies, that body type is not so hard on the eyes, eh? Not too bulky.

Ok, green lantern and Thor seem to be getting a lot of votes. I'll be the result when you marry the two together and they have a kid. Wait...that didn't sound right...lol.

Gerard Butler in 300? Yes, please. :)

Ryan Reynolds? Any day of the week?

Thor? Mmhhmm. He's my baby daddy, hypothetically. I thank goodness for his parents, they have 2 beautiful children. :)

Russell Crowe physique in Gladiator? Definite plus. ("Are you NOT entertained?!")

That pretty much sums it all up for me. :)

What were we talking about?

      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.
