Frustr8

it's me Frustr8, getting . ready to to go home. Bag of sodium,solution going into, my iv, once it gets done I'm history here. No more than cat scratches. Amazing to me too. write more later.

And 1 was a late bloomer I waited until I was 69, kept hoping I could beat on my own. Surely they have a new one there I hadn't tried. Finally realized I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. But my long trek is now over,buy am 2 days post, as of 7 am,waiting for them, to do my discharge, I feel ready to go home. My ride is here , waiting for Joann the care coordinator,to,give me my bye bye papers. Come on woman come on!

About Ready to be picked up & then I am on MY WAY! Smile on face, Hope in My💓and 8 AM very proud of ME! ⏰😜👍🏆

And it is Jingle in Massachusetts, me in Ohio, it's our Morning ! Not sure of her surgery time but mine is 7AM EDT. ON my way to check in at 5 AM, main hospital at Ohio State University, I will be on the 8th Floor. I am Dr Needleman's very first Surgery of The Day, I hope he feels fresher than ME, I could not sleep. He does this every day, My first, My only Bariatric Surgery Day. Pray for me if you can! 😇🙏😷🏣

Wow @jingle123523, how are things going in Massachusetts this morning? I'm in Central Ohio, it's 3 AM , just waiting for my friend Kathy to come. She is my ride into Columbud, You,know today is also my REBIRTHDAY, can't sleep, don't want to miss a thing. Must be at OSU by 5 AM. 7AM Surgery time, bags by my front doors, time to wake up my son so he can ride there too. He is my Biggest Best fan, been with me, supported me since I started in August 2015. Its our time, our day, today our dreams all come true. Deep Breath and I am Ready!!!!! Here We Go!😇😷💓

You are so correct, and it frustrates me to the inth degrees. Somehow it says I had Bariatric surgery in 2014, WRONG My one and only surgery,will be tomorrow morning!😷🏣👣

That's a problem November. is going to have. Nobody has started a November 2018 one, I dont,if they plan to,piggyback on 2017's or establish their own÷🌻

I have a tiny,one,on the eve of Wonder Wednesday. I no longer have a double chin or chins-- maybe that is where the 15 pounds I lost in August hung out? perhaps a lower case nsv but I will flaunt,it÷👅

Big Viffer, I was not aware,of this. I had assumed you were a mere Couch Grouch,and an curmudgeon-in-training. Here you have gotten your degree and I failed to send a 📦 gift! Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa!

Yep, also a paste of baking soda, the worst was when someone told her to,paint me with a slightly. weakened Clorox bleach solution. Didn't work, stung almost worse than the🐝🐜 bites and I smelled like Monday Morning Laundry for a week!

Get me 2, one a 3x,for now. the other a l or m.

.P.S. Catherine, do not fear your age, glory,in it. in less than 24 hours. in Columbus Ohio,i will receive my RNY bypass. It is so,good, so right and is my,key,to be tree health and a stronger future., And I have within me not,an ounce of fear

And now as I enter my Final 24 hours I am emotionally ready, secure,in my plans and decisions. If, as the old saying says IT AIN'T OVER UNTIL THE FAT LADY SINGS. listen as I burst into song 🎶listen for the words, listen for,the song , for this melody,is mine and mine alone!

And unto You and all others. Now into my,left presurgical hours, still,sure of my choice, know it,it the right thing- the right time - the right purpose- the right operation' for the right reasons - the right surgeon- at the right,location- So,nothing wiil go,wrong.

Now that is ONE I look forward to!

Meet another, sometimes mine look like I have blood poisoning, and I don't scratch with dirty fingernails!

How about Surgery doesn't work, I have gone back to McDonalds, I eat French Fries 3 times a day and twice on Sunday, but now I have a greasy taste in my,mouth , that proves Surgery Doesn't Work

Welcome @Bowties. I actually belong to the other forum . I am An RNY candidate, well truly I am almost operated, I will be having mine in 36 hours, at 7AM EDT at Ohio State University- Wexner Medical Center in Columbus Ohio.It has been a long tortured pathway, things I wouldn't have believed could, did, but as the old spiritual said, All my trials, Lord, soon be over. I call it my REBIRTHDAY, my WONDER WEDNESDAY and I have a wonderful,surgeon,who,happens to be The Chief of Bariatric.Surgery and Metabolic Weight Loss and a full professor in the College of Medicine there, But better yet , he is very skillful and a darn nice,person. I like Dr Needleman a lot and I hope you will both like and trust your surgeon,and hospital staff. But welcome to Bariatric Pal, ask any questions you like.

And Happy Labor Day,to you Michie _be_me and I hope you continue to heal, day after day, until you feel bright and sunny!

And now a few hours more until it is JUST,ONE DAY. And like a child,with a very large piles of gifts🎁📦 I can hardly,wait until it is time⏰to,unwrap them all! I am going to mentally record everything in my mind so I can journal each and every occurance. Certainly,I do know many facets of ut,but,like,a large jigsaw puzzle, how do the pieces fit together? So I have been travelling Bariatric Pal, soaking up wisdom like a sponge. This will prepare me for the basics, but everyone is an individual so their experiences may vary but it will be personalized to ME.😜And I think that is just fine!

Try Millys,Sipping Broth but almost, any of their soups are Wonderful. Buy from Bariatric Pal, not the place starting with "A". These foods are designed for Bariatric patients but can be used and enjoyed. by everyone. I will be buying from them just as soon as Surgery is over, want to make sure I am home to accept delivery. And thank You Bariatric Pal, I have an ungodly amount of points and this month, September, I shall redeem them. Only other reason I haven't? With my struggle to get to surgery emotionally unscathed, I feared jinxing myself. So when it comes to,the BARISLATRIC PAL 💒STORE just DO IT! 😜

Oh it does it does, but what a. totally wonderful thing also. Attention Ex-Surgeon on Columbus West Side,you said this couldn't be done, September 5th it will be. I was extremely lucky, I found a BETTER 😷surgeon than YOU! 😇

Than you Wanda you are so sweey, I love reading your posts. I honestly keep unpacking my mini duffle, pink camo and all. I started paring back items.😜

Maybe Angie you should tell out this orney insurance company so we all know who to avoid. A little insurance humor(well it's funny now -wasn't then) when late hubby and I were going to be blessed with a third child, we checked. into our insurance coverage to see what kind of maternity benefits we,had, wasn't very clear so we filed a request for clairification. Back flew a letter, they were attempting to deny coverage,their excuse? Quote -Pregnancy is an avoidable disease -unquote. The insurances company. was Connecticut General. They had a a commercial ditty which we paraphrased: Making sure we'll all be screwed That's what Connecticu General people do! We appealed and they finally,agreed to cover. See when they and my,life husbands company had initiated the coverage they thought only adults would need coverage. And outside my family and doctor, no one knew how hard I battled infertility to achieve that pregnancy! Incidently that "disease" is now 39 years old and the joy of my existence.😜&👨

Think I'll go re-watch RnY surgeries on YouTube, that should abort my desire to cheat at this LATE STAGE!😷🔪🏣
