Dr. Who fans will understand...



Recommended Posts

I've decided not to tell anyone about my mini gastric bypass surgery in two weeks but my husband (of course) and my mom who will be watching my kids.

Well, my husband got me a little, early Christmas present for my surgery. It's so clever and hilarious, but since I'm not telling anyone about my surgery, no one can appreciate it as much as it deserve.

It's a pillow shaped like an adorable little character from Dr. Who. It's adipose! It's from an episode where people take these diet pills which make their fat turn into these little guys that then pops out of their skin and runs away! It's totally absurd and hilarious.

The pillow is for hugging post op when I cough and in the car to protect my belly from the seatbelt.

Please tell me there are Dr. Who fans out there that can enjoy/appreciate this as much as I do!

:) What a fun gift! That was one of my favorite episodes. Those little smiles.... You, my dear, have a great hubby.

Ha! That is pretty clever! I'm a Doctor Who fan, but my husband isn't so it wouldn't have occurred to him to do something like that. It is perfect, though!

Now I want one. Or Cthulhu slippers. Wasn't that the episode that introduced Donna? She was my favorite.

Clever indeed! Very supportive too. Like Dr. Who as well, not so sure about the newest iteration of the Doctor though.

      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... :(
