This thread is going to be sooo inappropriate!



Recommended Posts

You guys kinda make me wish I knew crap about OH and what goes on there, but sadly I do not. Like 3 or 4 years ago I tried to get onboard but it was so damn near impossible to sign up, navigate, etc. that I gave up. If I can't figure it out, I probably don't need it.

But seems like the entertainment factor could be worth figuring it out...

They just started a new forum, a R&R forum. I think they were copying Alex. But I swear, their rules must be, "Attack the person, not the topic."

If you ever feel like behaving as an inappropriate child and get into name calling pissing matches, the OH R&R forum is your place! :ohmy:

I used to wonder if it was the surgery type that attracted such bizarre personality types or if the procedure caused nutritional deficiencies and did it to them. But now the more I think about it I think a certain personality type is drawn to that procedure.

I'm telling you, some of those people are truly weird.

But it is entertaining. The leader of the pack is an atheist and she didn't understand why I blocked her, afterall... she's atheist! We should work together to slam dunk Christians. As I told the messenger, she's an embarrassment to atheism, nothing more. But she is one of the extra bizarre and more colorful types over there.

Wow. I didn't know DS people were stinky. I don't think I could have made that decision. Having to buy special products for unexpected stinks in public? :ohmy: Spring fresh..

When I PB in public, it doesn't bother anyone else.. unless yer that girl who threw up in the kids hair hehehehe!!

Yeah it is, I joined it same time I joined here.. I could not navigate that place at all, and I'm pretty computer literate. I could never find the same thread twice, and I had no idea where it dumped me (sometimes I would be in RnY section for no reason).

And every single page has an active-x notification which gets really annoying..

that whole forum is just ... disorganized ... unless im doing it wrong.

I thought it was just me! I hate that site. It's a jumbled mess! I like the organization of LBT soooo much better.

My doc recommended that site to me the last couple of visits and I told him NO...send people to lapbandtalk.com. I made him write it down. I told him OH sucks.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I don't know why these threads make me giggle like a 6 year old calling someone poopyhead but damn, I can't resist!

Just a Drop discount info

There is a little history here. DS is a WLS type, it is kinda like extreme malabsorption and it makes your poop and farts so bad people could faint. I mean it's HORRIBLE! This is something DSers battle all the time. It's so bad if they fart the stench clings to their clothing. Others complain openly in public restrooms. I'm telling you, it's extreme. They are forever having to keep Fabreeze and specialized products with them 24/7. One bariatric surgeon was telling another person about a patient where he was removing her gallbladder. She farted while under anesthesia and they were gagging in the OR and since it was the middle of surgery, he couldn't leave the room. The gallbladder patient had DS.

He went on to say that if a DSer farted in an elevator, when the doors opened people wouldn't be rushing out of the elevator, they'd be dead.

There are WLS type wars on OH all the time. Bandsters tease DSers for stinking and they tease us for barfing. They are forever insisting they don't stink yet they keep companies like this in productive business! HA

This thread just cracked me up, I've been laughing since I read it. I just can't imagine my husband wanting me to buy EXTREME odor eaters for the bathroom and clothing. I can't fathom this conversation in my home!

It's not funny that DS patients stink so bad, it's not. But if you saw the horrific things they say about us, referring to our bands as laugh-bands, choke chains, if you saw how they degrade and insult banded people for being banded, maybe you would understand my childish laughter going on right now.

If DS patients eat carbs that is when it is apparently the worst. One piece of cake and they get instant gas and clear a building. Yeah, I'll take my choke chain any 'ol day over farts that are lethal and a stench following me each place I go.

OMG! it can't be that bad!:ohmy: that's terrible! how is the stinking gas related to the surgery? I wonder if there is way to avoid them... believe it or not, I've been married 17 years and I have never passed gas in front of hubby, or done # 2.... unless I passed gas while sleeping....but I hope not...I know, maybe I'm too extreme, but I'm very shy when it comes to those things.... now imagine if I was passing those killer bombs.... so embarrasing...

OMG ... i cant believe im sharing this story, but here goes...

ok... DH and I dated on the internet (met, courted, you name it ..) we met on a Saturday and married that next Wednesday. been happily married for over 10 years.

when we first lived together after marriage, i realllllly had to fart... reallly really bad but was just too embarrassed to do it in front of him ... this was 2AM. i woke him up from a completely sound sleep to go downstairs and get me some of the fruit we had cut up that night ... "i'm hungry - go get me some fruit" ... so i could do the deed without him hearing it. of course i probably could have done it and still not heard it cause he was SLEEPING... but anyway ... that's my story. now, ehhh, we dont really care.

So basically it turns us into men?

:huh2:

Wait -- so does that mean it also:

  • Gives us the bright idea that intentionally Fing up some responsibility will mean we don't have to do it anymore
  • Makes us truly believe that running up and dry-humping our SO every time they bend over to pick something up is actually going to turn them on
  • Means we can never comment on the attractiveness of someone of the same sex without it meaning we're gay, and
  • Makes us think "I don't know" is actually some freaking kind of answer to a question?

rofl wheet.

It's ironic you said that storing losing, something about that came up recently in my relationship.

I never farted or did #2 with DH around, when we first moved in together- after 3 years of dating.. I still wouldn't do those things. We were living in New Mexico, and my family came for a visit. When I get scared, I have 'scared farts'.. not to be confused with 'rainbow farts'. We were going up a trolly up the side of the Sandia mountains (I hate heights), and some drunk wedding party was on there swaying it. I started farting, and I blamed it on my dad.. who cares, it's dad! And my dad, in front of DH (DB at the time) is going "No I didn't, YOU did". I was so mortified, I actually cried and yelled at him later!!

I would send DB to the gas station or to neighbor for something when I needed to do #2. I FINALLY got over that in the past 6 months-- living together 4 or so years now. I can now do it, as long as he's not in the room connected to the bathroom.

But a couple weeks ago, he walks in the bathroom and goes "PEW!!". And he killed it. I am back to square one!!! Men.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
