Recommended Posts

i'm so sorry for your lost and my prayers are with you and your family.

me on the other hand did find comfort in food lately but, i have to stop that now. and as i said before im trying to find my way home. didn't know it was so easy to fall off the wagon. and so hard to get to get back on track. but, i have to do it.

today 11/30

junk das all:frown::confused:

Good Day Everyone,

I've been out of sorts. I too have lost some one this month. My Grandmother past way couple of weeks ago, she was 93, life was good to her but it's taken more out of me then I thought it would.

I've been doing my best to keep my food under control but after being with my mom for the past few weeks I’ve found that she loves to eat bread and fried food in just about all of her meals.

I told her that if we eat out together and share (like we usually do since I don't eat a lot anymore) that there needs to be more Protein and non-fried things.

She understands and has been working w/me on it.

I had another fill at the beginning of the month so I'm still getting used to it.

I used to read some of your posts and couldn't understand why you were eating such little portions. Now I understand with my new fill, I really understand.

I'm trying hard to listen to my body again on when I'm comfortably full and not taking that last bit just because it’s still on the plate.

I will try in the next few weeks to start posting again. I need to post, I need to share, I need all of you!

You can drink Orange Juice? when I DO its horrible (uncomfortable) so even though dr and dieticican said OK,,,I stay away...had some when making my cranberry sauce and felt it. It is OK for me to cook with it but NOT drinking.

Not a very good day yesterday...

B- Almost all of a nutrigrain raspberry bar.

L- strawberry Uncrustable (it's essentially a PBandJ). Stomach rejected it. Later when I felt better I had a string cheese.< /p>

S- Medium pear.

D- some Protein packed frozen dinner. Stomach rejected it, ate too fast, whatever the reason it came back up.

Here's hoping today will be better.

      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

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
