It's funny to hear what someone used to think...



Recommended Posts

So Sunday I had dinner with M and some of his friends. The topic of my month long kidney stone ordeal came up and the joke was "was she making it up? I think she's telling the truth because it's a pretty elaborate story just to avoid a fourth date" Anyway, apparently my fairly limited contact was a puzzle to the bystanders. Besides MY medical stuff I was also intentionally taking it slow.

What was happening was during times when my symptoms were ok, I went on some dates but much of our contact was by phone, email. I remember thinking " this guy is gonna bail on me because who in the heck gets a kidney stone shortly after meeting someone?"

Btw, I have the same strange phenomena where my pals want play by play of my dating life. I wised up and say very little as some of the advice has been horrible.

I went to a party on Saturday and one of my girlfriends had told people I had met someone so of course the questions began. I was asked " is he nice?" The long pause before I replied " that's not exactly the first adjective that comes to mind", got a bunch of laughs. I dunno why. He's actually generous and has a life full of people who care deeply for him, treats me so well, but how can anyone call a right wing sarcastic attorney "nice"? Ha

Anyways I am enjoying getting to know his friends-a couple of them are women who are like little mother hens.

right wing sarcastic attorney...NICE? Well, I've got 2 of the 3 (I'm not an attorney, but I play one at the capitol often enough) and unless you have really worked hard to tick me off, most people are going to say I'm nice. @@CowgirlJane I'm just listening in to your semi-private journal here, but he does sound like a great find. I hope it works out.

      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!
