People only seem to want to hear yes you can have this, yes you can cheat, yes, yes, yes. If you say no or give your opinion it starts a whole, often nasty debate.

I can't believe you would say such a thing. And I take it as a personal insult (the fact that you didn't address me by name in this thread is irrelevant, I knew you were talking about me!)

And NO, I am not being sensitive. I didn't go out looking to be insulted. I just happened upon your thread by accident - after continuously trolling the forum for new threads every 5 minutes.

Flame shields up, Captain. :P

P.S. I'm only 24 hours post-op. Is it okay to order Domino's? After all, pizza does have Protein.

Maybe we should have a "What you want to hear" section. It would have to have a big disclaimer on top warning that the answers are probably bad advice. Folks could post there knowing they would merely be agreed with. Kind of like when my wife says something. <_<:D

This is somewhat irrelevant but how long do you have to be on here to get the tagline "your hippie uncle" ? Lmao

Well...In a lot cases, people come here seeking absolution under the guise of support. I've never been one to back down and if I feel that someone is doing something that could possibly be adverse to their recovery and to their ongoing weight loss, then I say so. Yes, at times it causes some controversy, but hey stick to your beliefs.

I went for a long time as the standard "Sleeve Master". I am not into B&D so I did not dig it but didn't know how to change it. A sleever said I reminded him of a hippy uncle, full of mystical sayings and quite eccentric. I was "Apple" in the 60's, a painted guru and self-absorbed cloud flyer.

I was sufficiently flattered and found out how to change that part:

Oh great! Another slam at me! And after I put up the Flame Shields!

Fine, now you've gone too far. I'm going to post an angry rant on my Facebook page. Where my minions agree with everything I say.

OMG.. ABSOLUTLEY NOOOOOOOO... Dominoes suck.. I love pizza Hut has greaser crust... YUM,

Ohhhh....Pizza grease, yuuuummmmmm. That's almost a clear liquid, right?

Hey pass me that Donut will ya....who's making the beer run later? :D

Would you two settle for a cronut? I hear they're all the rage in NY city now - and a real delicacy. Apparently the bakery only makes a few hundred per day and people are now selling them in the classifieds for as much as $40 each.

      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.

      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
