If you got men's health to run your exact post as it is, men would become over 90% of all new bariatric patients. :lol:

Mine is definitely bigger. This sounds like a fib but it is a full 2" longer. And for all you skeptics out there, go look at my picture gallery. I have a before and after pic on there. Just kidding.

Maybe you're just seeing if for the first time since childhood.

We like talking about junk. *wink*

Ladies, we love hearing from you in the main forums, but as luv2plumb pointed out, The Man's room is for men. Please refer to THIS stickied post at the top of The Men's Room if you have any questions.

I'm so sorry I'm just shy , truth be told I've read things from the lady's room , but was to shy to reply to any of there post

Not to worry. That is one of the reasons why we have the rules we do, so we can create threads where we get responses from just men. If you want responses from the general public, we have plenty of area to do just that. As far as being too shy to post in The powder Room, don't worry about it. We're asked not to post in there, either. Just like I'm sure they don't want us posting opinions about why their cycle won't stop, getting a breast lift or how to straighten out the vajayjay, we should also have our own place where we feel safe to post what is going on and get the feedback we need.

I'm sorry you felt like you had to edit your post and remove your content. I quoted the ladies posts on this thread so they get notifications of my post. I have been guilty of not checking which forum I am posting in before hitting the POST button and hopefully this will remind them and others to be respectful of each other's forums.

When you use the app on your phone I can't tell which posts come from the men's or women's group because I look at the newest things that are posted since my last visit.....that's what brought ME to this post. ;-)

Actually, from the mobile app, at the top of the screen, there will be a link. In this case, it says, "Jump to the Guys' Room". Every thread will have the forum at the top.

      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
