Lying about what type of surgery..



Recommended Posts

GingerDiane, I had an endoscopy. Not a big deal. No after effects from the anesthesia or the procedure.

I wouldn't use the gallbladder excuse...that's same day surgery and you can typically go back to light duty in 3 days. Plus I always feel karma will get you for lying and you'll need it out at a later date. I would just tell them you're having surgery and if they ask what kind I would say I'd rather not talk about it

I'm the 26th as well. . As far as the other think or say... my thinking is fuck em' . Sorry, if that language offends, but it's not thier business. Not everyone is the same, and not everyone can do it without the surgery. Me included. I know I need the surgery, and can't do it without the help. :)

The pics do that sometimes. Freaks everyone out at first. You are the only one that sees it that way.

The only thing that matters is that this is going to help you feel better and look better. People are judging you now and they'll judge you later. "Judgey people gonna judge!"

Personally, I would take 2 weeks off and then if you need more, get a note from your doctor and do it.

If you feel like you need to say something, just frown and say, "Lady problems. Trust me, you don't want to know."

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
