Wow, he doesn't sound like a very good fill doc. I'd be mightily pissed, if I were you.

That's the thing... he's such an awesome guy I have a hard time being pissed at him, but still... yeah, I am kinda pissed.

As for rules, I like one they have at DD's school:

"If it bothers someone, you have to cut it out."

We now use that one at home.

That really leaves the door open to LOTS of rules! :thumbup:

Not really. The school law book is *really* short. At the public school, they had a 3 page dress code and we were still always confused about what was and wasn't allowed. This place has a two line dress code and we're not confused at all.

Basically, they handle discipline through a Judicial Committee made up of staff and students. So if you are doing something that annoys me and I ask you to cut it out and you don't, I have 3 choices... I can drop it, I can pursue it through JC by writing up a complaint or I can escalate the confrontation until I either get my way or get written up myself.

Kind of like real life.... :thumbup:

What about when someone asks for positive and the reply is negative. That happened to me and then the person says, well if you are posting on a public forum you get what you get! HELLO, I asked for POSITIVE. If you can't read then don't post! LOL

I like that. They get to decide whether it is important enough to pursue. Cool.

good friend goes into the hospital monday for a wk of chemo before his bone marrow transplant. SO lucky to found a match so soon.....had been wondering what to get him so today i bought a digital photo frame (YES bitched about it some 500 pages ago) - but he'll be there for over a month after chemo - then marrow transplant.

i like how i look NOW at 120'''something or another vs 10+yrs ago.

anyway loading it up w/all our trips/holidays, since i don't work - i'll be up in the hospital a bunch tormenting his spirits up so my BF doesn't have to do it all.....

PJTP...:thumbup: there is a person on other threads that had a revision. I will call her the angry person. Since that revision she is sounding so hateful towards others. Her last few post has been very hateful. Last one was talking about the poster not losing very much. But she is pbing everything. Some one talked about starvation mode and the angry person said something to the effect of there is no proof that you go into starvation mode. She was angry because the woman doesn't like to excersize. If she doesn't want to that is her perogative. Don't belittle someone for not doing what is the smart thing. I just had to get it off my chest:cursing:

I used to really like and respect this person. She is intelligent, (or so I thought) Her post was always to the point, but in a nice way. Not like lately.

You can ask but you can't demand. If people don't want to respond positively, that's their prerogative (as long as they don't break any forum rules).

Hm, '98...'98... that was after the Aquanet wave in the front, past the tight-poodle perms and WAY past the feathers, right?

What was the hair-do for '98?

:) Photos are definitely memory tuggers. I love going through the photos of my friends and me. All our goofy stuff, road trips and things we took! Have fun with that!

Give a big extra hug to your friend! My friend's dad went through the same thing, only it took a loong time to find a match.

:frown: Take care, G4E! I hope things start to look up for you soon. *sends good joojoo from DownUnder*

Mmm....good joojoo from DownUnder - is that those purple crunchy bars that I buy at World Market? :tongue_smilie:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
