Frustr8

At my 2 week. post surgery appointment I am prayfully,hoping for my 5.000BTU,air conditioner now to be off my body and back forever. I will dance in the sunlight forever without that 55 pounds holding me back! 🙆🌈

Green Tealael you look like an angel in your top picture, a with-it lady,in the bottom, proud to,have them both as my friend.

And yes, I keep trying to drink, propel tastes like sodium bicarbonate aka baking soda, the other lo/no calories dri,ks unapplealing and i,loathe plain water if it is warm. Like a little coolness it it. Its like being dropped into a dancing. contest,and you've never danced that dance before.

Yes Zofran 8am-4pm-10pm. Not,sure it didn't come up,along with everything,else Saturday. I asked my son Tomkitten to heat me some organic vegetable broth, every thing including protein shakes, sickens me today. His answer: come fix me. pancakes(as in pure carbohydrate ville) his rationale- it keeps me. from getting pneumonia. Gee thanks!

Tums is calcium carbonate,sleevers and Bypassers no,longer make enough,gastric acid to utilize carbonate. That is why we are told to take calcium citrate. You cab take Toms if you like passing lozenge sized🌰 rocks through you, but they won't do YOU much good.

And Good Luck to you and all my future sisters of the over 50 clan. Plenty of room for you here!

Boy yousleevers are sure on a different game plan than me! I feel rockier today than the Maine Coastline! Are we even in the same universe?

Has anyone felt like Lovenox makes them itch? it is either thst or rampant nerves.!

Not having a world class wonderful weekend. I am definitely a September Surgery, am I a September Success? That one I am not so certain of?

Wow that sounds awfully scary Thought this would be the same as @Biddyzz,in New Zealand had with her Fobi ring but must not be because she has had nothing but a success with hers.😛

Help Any veterans who,can make sense of this and point me in the right direction. Life shouldn't be THIS HARD!

Your mama probably was a pretty lady. I look like an ugly relative I would just as leave forget. The Old saying was : Beauty,is skin deep, Ugly,goes through to the bone. Well some bones are starting to,peek through. Don't,like,my color, not jaundiced but,not,healthy either. I LOOK SICK! It's now Sunday and I have been👅 puking off-and- on for a day-and- half now. Like Judy Benjamin in Private Benjamin " This is NOT the ARMY I joined!" HELP!😧🌊😧💦

them 8am-4pm-10pm, one of the few. I don't have to grind. Should I switch,to Soy,i have AdvantEDGE in my fridge. Only,thing that has stayed down in day-and - half, 2 T unsweetened applesauce yesterday afternoon, was trying to keep up with other meds until,i realized I am only fertilizing the foliage around here. My BM since they,opened up this week? I call butter-poo, sticks to me instead of falling into toilet. my upper chest is getting so sore, over my sternum where,I have my highest incision port scar. I am glad. OSU,sent me home with that stack,,of blue barf bags, what a Godsend they have been. What do I do now? I confess I am "snake bit" but this state of affairs. Is this too trivial to bother my surgeon with? He is 50 miles away, if he wants me to come,to him, emergency squad only,option, don't drive, don't even,own a car anymore,loca l community hospital staffed by buffoons, know more about floor mops than an bypass patient. Ready to turn my back on Stage #3 items, maybe my body just wasn't ready.

@elmatador yes I had been taking

Hey went searching, found something not ignoring,bypassers, read it and see if it,helps,you too.

Well thank you. Cindy t, I have had several mentors here on Bariatric Pal , it will be my honor to,pay it forward. It hasn't always been easy,since September 5th, in fact the last 18 hours have been horrid, but I will,bounce back,up to the top.

Let us know,if YOU find a place!

Thank You,My Palomabella. oLd Thought for you this evening MIND OVER MATTER NO MIND NO MATTER Thanks for your friendship, I'll be here for you ALL THE WAY!

Wonder why when they gave me my post surgical scripts they gave me standard rather than the melting? Maybe melting costs more or isn't as acceptable?

Update Allegheny College-Meadville Pennsylvania in the Northwestern part,of Pennsylvania. Don't know if we have any,Bari-pals from there active, but,i am sure at one time we did.

Undoubtedly, I'm so nice, wring her dry so WE won't get so much, okay? How do I know about Boone? Because in addition to,being Mama's Little Princess I was Daddy's Litltle Bud. Besides I remember a few years ago when Appalachian State ,( see I knew I misspoke the name before) stomped the snarf out of Big Bad Michigan. I'm an Ohio state University fan, remember I even had my surgery there. As the Arabs say: The friend of my friend is also my friend, the enemy of my enemy is also,my enemy! Wonder is there is actually,an Allegheny State? Suspect if there is it,would be West Virgina or Tennessee, I'll check,Wikipedia or Google.

If you are immediately post-surgery perhaps gas under your diaphragm and you feel it,there. If you are father out nerves that got bumped during surgery. Oh yes there are some REALLY BAD THINGS that could be felt there but the law of averages is in YOUR favor.

Digging it My Friend!

Well if you were,at Allegheny State in Boone you would be a Hilltopper and maybe safer!

Thank you PhotoGirl, Day🔪 10 and I thought I was being a wuss!
