Jesus, @FluffyChix, what is your problem?

Are you an immediate post-op patient? No, you are not. You had your surgery more than six months ago, so you are not relevant to my point.

Did I say "150 pounds"? No, I did not. I said 165, because at 165 pounds or more, one needs 60+ grams of Protein, by these researchers' estimate. And the vast majority of immediate post-op patients weigh significantly more than 165 pounds.

You want to talk about basic skills? Try learning to read.

Also, maybe developing a modicum of chill. I was merely pointing out that the "you'll scare the immediate post-ops" is--I was nicer than this, but I'll be more real now--just concern trolling. You did not need to jump down my throat or insult my f---ing math skills

I believe perhaps you are forgetting to divide the weight in pounds by 2.2lbs/kg in order to get to weight expressed in kilograms. Don't worry, I forgot to do that all the time in 5th grade. :D

165lbs DIVIDED by 2.2lbs/kg = 165/2.2 = 75kg

75kg X 0.8g/kg = 60g of Protein recommended.

It would also be nice if Fluffy and MIZ would stop abusing the laughing smilie button. Yes, we all know now that they hate both creek's and my posts and therefore try to ridicule them. Please stop this infantile behavior.

WTAF? You just told me my math was right, by telling me my math was wrong? You are just spoiling for a fight, and I'm done feeding your troll ass.

Where did I say your math was right? Your math is wrong.

You forgot to divide by 2.2lbs/kg to express the weight in kg.

Uh oh, this thread seems to be rapidly devolving!

I don't mind people who disagree with something I've posted and say why they do. That's civil disagreement, and it's always welcome in my threads. And even encouraged. I love a good debate, particularly when people can provide some links to reputable research.

Adults can disagree without being backbiting and taking everything that's said in general....as if it were aimed at them personally. Which is isn't.

Adults should be able to walk away when they don't care for a topic or don't find it relevant.

Adults should be able to keep debating civilly, or lose interest and move on peacefully.

Last I checked, the only person with the right to patrol and control the content of the board...is the board's owner.

That whole....Live and let live thing? Some folks on this board need to work that.

This seems more like a pissing contest rather than a true regard for other peoples health. It wreaks of, "I know more than you". It's basically the equivalent of "I know you are but what am I" but with fancier vocabulary. Not to name names or anything.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
