The junky Bakery Aisle where Little Debbie, DingDongs and lunchbox sized pies live. It is just like funeral viewing hours. You pass slowly by, you remark how nice they look just lying there, you sniff, daub youreyes, look sad and then move along so someone else can have their turn.๐ช๐ช๐ช

Hey if you're Norco-izing remember Miralax or similar to keep things tickedly booming along. Fecal train wreck? Try boulders,on the track! And the local Band Aid station does,not much,love fat crabby impacted women. One Male RN crabbed "It's Not like you are new to the business, You Knew This Was going to Happen!" Yeah, but I was hoping the laws of the Universe might be suspended in My Case!๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ

Anyone go to the hospital alone?

I forecast continued weight loss, the only thing my Tomkitten likes to make is toast!!! Oh he really can do short-order things, he just is perpetually disinclined. "But Mom, you do it So Fine ", I've tried to tell him pretty soon,its going to be. How Fact can I make or open protein shakes. My Grandpa and Late Lamented's had a saying , one said it in English, LL's said it in Dutch. ''"Them That Don'T Listen Got To Feel!'"" Changes are a-coming and Someone is gonna be crying๐ฆ and I dis-volunteered. Nuff said?

Might be a nice change from the "In my day we did blah blah blah", I used to hate when my older relatives did that. Well what goes around comes around, the" I won the Second. World War single-handly" have been replaced by " Let me tell you about Flower Power, the Viet Nam War and the Day Kennedy Died" and whole new generation will be bored stiff or yawn behind their hands. And a recounting of all your pain and sorrows with Bariatric Surgery will scare them skinny. Think,of it as your gift to the future generations๐LOL, my friends!!!

Kind of weird question but didn't want to sound like an idiot during my final consultation.

And you two, just do a real good job,of it all, there are,always presurgs and "newbies" coming in, and now you will be the Seasoned Veterans to all them. Peaceful thought, firm convictions of the approving and improving things and good smooth healthy healings.๐๐ -

I'm allergic to tape AND Dermabond, so staples or sutures please . I'm no longer vain, although it would be nice to be someday to be like a little,kid and flash everybody. With my gnarley,criss crosses of 3 nine pound pregnancies stretch marks, they will either be lost,in the landscape or become,an Oh Well. Besides people might pay to see pictures of a train wreck but my belly--- well maybe a bored yawn?๐ฎ

Surgeon Follow Ups for Life?
Frustr8 replied to IveGotThePower's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I think,like you said Forever. At least,OSU shares the that same philosophy. I guess I look at it the opposite, it will,be nice to have a reunion every year. So much else is Slam Bam, Thank YOU Ma'am, NEXT! in this world. So at least with them it won't feel like benign neglect.๐ -
Have you lost as much and as quickly as you thought you would after surgery?
Frustr8 replied to jrsone's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Charity donating to charity, what a thrilling thought that idea is. One of the great joys to your weight jourrney. every -
I know you are, but watch out for your surgeon. if you do wake up with hoofprints, that'll be his fault. Sooner wagon wheel lines, that will be just fine. Are you gonna wake up singing Boomer Sooner like a loyal little lady?๐๐

It's after midnight here so it's only 5 days until your internal remodeling and you wake up and start recovering. May you not feel like Pokey from Oklahoma State๐ rode his hooves all,over your tummy I.l know you are going to do fine and Jacky will have a happy surprise when 5hodvdrployment is over๐๐๐

Yeah, how often have they screamed Cut those calories! Ever notice its the same people that say If you would only concentrate you'd lose weight! Listen, I come from a long line of worriers and stewers, if thinking would make it so we would verge on anorexia instead of being obese. And their brother-in-laws "If you want it enough the weight will leave" Bull Feathers!๐

Frustr8 replied to Little Green's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It does and it will even more in the future. I'm still avoiding that Jolly Giant and his vegetable factory, hopefully the next time he comes into my valley I can tell him "I just had surgery,and can only do light things" a 50 bushel container of vegetables is too big for me. Hurray,hurray,for,making it,back home.๐ -

The error word in the above posting should read" inspiring" because it is, to finally find such a bariatric home in this desert of disregard I in the past have encountered.

I hope I don't sound pathetic and I'm not sure how to phrase this. Yeah, me, the word- vomiting know-it-all of the western world, the person who has something to say, even when it's not her thread. With my new program at Ohio State, I love it and I love all the people associated,with it. A few years ago there was an easy-listening song, the refrain the singer kept singing in the background " and I love her so' no. matter where the music went in it, you heard the gentle refrain. OK no matter what stage I'm going through, what new member I meet, what different member of my future surgical team I encounter , and it's all been good a little inner refrain sings in my head " and they still want me" , See in the other ill-fitting program I NEVER got that, I could have walked out their door, tried to cross the nearby interstate on foot, been killed, and they would not have shed tear one, I just didn't matter that much to them. This new program, no matter what challenges they present me, and some of them will not be a chinch to implement, there is an inate caring about me and my future, this is in spring and I find I like it very much. So my little refrain" and they still want me" is one of the sweetest much heavenly songs I have ever heard. And I am filled with wonderment and joy at it all. โคFrstr8. 26 May2018
