I would like to pause here and take a moment to remember some more poignant quotes from the poopable staples thread....... "Really quick the staples they use for sleeve are so small you more than likely wont even see them when you poop them out! Gross but true!" " He told me I had two rows of mini tiny staples that would all fall out and eventually I would poop them out but were do small I wouldn't even see them!!! Maybe my dr does things more modern! You can give him a call if you would like!!! Rockwood clinic spokane wa , dr spitz , but any one will do!" "Nope they didn't use staples on my five tiny superglued incisions. !!! My dr was really advanced I guess" "You know it's not uncommon for advancement in the medical field! Again , the staples the good drs use fall out or dissipate !!!!! Google it , I don't care but titanium staple are not all that common any more!" "No , maybe yours were but things are changing and good drs use tiny rows of staples that fall out over time! Sorry, but your wrong! It is possible for medical advancements! My will fall out in my poop!"

You are killing me....

cabot! Hey neighbor!!! My brother lives in Conway (well, when not deployed to hell as he currently is) and my 9 year old son has recently declared his intent to be UCAs starting goalie when he's a freshman in 2022 (aim high young grasshopper!!!)

I will be in Cabot for the holiday. Have been celebrating thanksgiving there for years. I've got family that lives there. Very nice small town and a great place to visit. Speaking of how things are done in the south, I started a turkey frying tradition for the holiday. Now that's how we do it in the south!

How do you fry a turkey? Sounds interesting.

It starts with having a pot big enough to hold an entire turkey and about 4 gallons of peanut oil. I take and inject a seasoning of butter, garlic and some other spices into the turkey breast and thighs. Rub the outside down with season salt and then shove a metal rod through the turkey that has a plate to hold the turkey on one end and a loop on the other that you put a hook into. Holding the hook, you drop the turkey into the pot full of oil. As soon as you start to drop it in, the skin seers over and creates somewhat of a shell around the turkey. This allows the turkey to cook with no oil getting into the meat and no juices from escaping the meat. It is the most flavorful, juiciest and succulent turkey meat you will ever have. I've seen people eat oven roasted turkey and have tons left over. When you fry a turkey, people literally will sit there and pick meat off the bones just to get very last bite. It's hard to explain just how good and flavorful it is. Just have to try it!

I guess it'd be the south part of town. Off Kerr Station Rd and several miles south of Bill Foster Highway. We spend quite a bit of time making trips to the Walmart in Jacksonville along with Gander Mountain when we decide its time to blow stuff up!

yup, you're the opposite part from us. It's a good place to raise a kiddo. He can still run the neighborhood and be a kid and we've got Little Rock close for anything we need. It's a good fit for us. Enjoy your trip!

I don't think I have a pot big enough to fit a turkey. Sounds delicious!

      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... :(
