Why do I do it to myself?

Just making sure, this thread is in R-n-R, right? Good, so we're ready for the dr*ma.

Nancy B:dunno, looks like skmsu recently joined here. Hopefully she'll be back and can explain...

Actually, she joined in 2006. And if I didn't have so much restriction, I'd make popcorn! That is, if I had it in my apartment. :heh:

I don't want to cause a stink, but I had to join to post this. I am just perplexed as to why she would say this. I don't know any other Nancy B's on OH, but maybe there is.

Are you talking about me? Nancy B from OH? Please explain!

I do remember reading a post where you had suggested to someone who thought that she was experiencing Constipation and gas that she do a “cleanse”. I can’t remember if the post was from you or the other individual thanking you for your advice, but in either case those posts are not there now. If this was not the case my apologies. Have you ever suggested to anyone on OH that they do any sort of colonic or cleanse?

And you had to find out about it somehow, too.

Well, hopefully skmsu will pop in.

I've read here for a long time, but couldn't quite figure out the format, so I never officially joined until last night. I'm still not quite sure I understand how this board works...I'll keep experimenting. What does "multi-quote" mean when posting a reply?

No, not me. Maybe the other Nancy? D? I figured you must have me confused with someone else. I don't really know what a colonic is, but it doesn't sound pleasant!

No problems...just didn't want anyone to think this was me giving wacko advise.

No offense, Nancy, but this post by BAShinn indicates otherwise:

I will say that much of it can be attributed to MOM and Nancy B's suggestion (thanks, Nancy...it WORKED). I'm still a bit sore, but my side feels better. I am going to make it through the weekend and see what happens. If I'm still sore, I'm going to go for an unfill, as suggested by Dr. C.
She'd previously made a thread about being constipated and in pain after a severe PB session. And of course, as anyone familiar with her knows, she eventually wound up having to have her band removed.

I'm sure the reason that no post can be found with your actual suggestion of an enema (otherwise known as a colonic) in it is because you made it through PM or email, not because you went back and deleted it when you first read this thread. Right, Nancy?

Sorry to disappoint you, but you are incorrect. B is a friend of mine and she was having trouble with Constipation. We talked about something quite different as a remedy, which have nothing to do with anything mentioned here. I gave her the remedy for what I did for my babies, totally safe and didn't involve any medications or cleansing. It had nothing to do with her erosion, which did come soon after, as we all know. Someone might have suggested the other treatments, but it wasn't me. I know for a fact that she tried what I suggested, and it worked.

What was it that you suggested?

Kind of embarrassing! Glycerine suppository...totally harmless. For babies, it's called Babylax. You're not trying to attack the problem by going through the stomach and bloodstream, taking pills.

Good to know, but I always worry that any suggestion that might delay someone seeing their doctor in hopes that a home treatment might work could be harmful indirectly.

So any opinions if Sandy will ever get her license back? From either state? ;)

You are so bad! I predict it will happen as soon as Larry Craig gets his guilty plea changed :eyebrows:

      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... :(
