Oh you've got it bad.... I don't think you'd be the only member of GB Anon. I loved him in PS I Love You, sobbed from beginning to end - and I know it was a hopeless film, lol.

Yup it's true. I got the official information today...I am in the middle of menopause..When the hell did that happen..Last I heard I was pre-menopausal.

Oh boy, waiting now to hear that I have a brain tumor or something like that..What is left I ask?

As Arney says " it is not a brain tumor."

RJ, I can one up you on this one. I had a biopsy on my uterus over 5 years ago with the diagnosis of post menopausal. In October I had my sleeve surgery and then early November had TVT surgery and started spotting for a few days. Three weeks after the second surgery I spotted for three plus weeks. I felt like it was an April Fool's joke that my periods had stopped.

Arts,

For me at least the hot flashes only come after exercise, at night when asleep or if I have a glass of wine. (That must be Skippy talking about wine). :P

Same thing happened to me..except I had not had a . since 2009...then in Sept. Got my . Now I am scheduled for a DNC and Biopsy to find out if everything is okay....

Now that I am struggling with pneumonia I have been put off..Can't go under with any chance that something might happen...don't know why..lol

That's how they found out I was in menopause ..Because I told the surgeon that I was Pre..oops...Had no idea I was here where I am now in my life..yikes!!!!!!!!

Well I got told today that I was pre-menopausal and while I'm okay with no .s as RJ so cutely calls them, I do wish the actual menopause waits until my saggy skin tightens up a bit!

Of course part of my mind was going "Me? pre-menopausal? when did I get this old?" and the other part of my mind is singing "yay! no .s!"

Brain tumors are over rated. They wouldn't even let me have mine after they removed it. Jerks.

I'm always, ALWAYS rooting for you!!!!! I want good things to happen...like Ryan Gosling seeing you on the street and saying, "I've worshipped you from afar for a long time and I just had to introduce myself." OR you invent a chocolate cake with butter cream frosting that has no calories and you become a gazillionaire when you sell your secret OK - let's be honest...I want those things to happen to me! :blush:

OK, I know the secret: make each serving a few grams and you can call it 0!

Gerrard Butler.. He'dve got it when he starred in 300 and his accent was properly Scottish.

Scottish men.. Mmmmmm

Now he's sounding awful with attempting the phony American thing? No good. No good at all.

He's also looking a bit hamster-ish with those cheeks.... Looks like he's got a load of sunflower seeds stored in there.

Now, Ryan Gosling in The Notebook?

Oh lordy, he'd get it. Must have a thing for men with Southern accents and bucket loads of charm...

<swoon> :blink:

I once shared a cab with Tom Cruise's lunch - that's my only claim to fame!

As for menopause, I have no clue. Had a hysterectomy (but still have one ovary) about 15 years ago. Now THAT was brilliant! Have told my daughter, as soon as she has finished having babies - GET RID OF HER UTERUS!!

Had a couple of hot flashes once - honestly can't remember when, and since then nothing, nada, zilch. I'm 57.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
