Frustr8

Just tell yourself in your mind " They are all just going on holiday! When they return, our relationship will be different, just on an More Adult Basis!" And it is amazing how much better it is and how little of anything it takes to fill YOU up!!!

I'm not Green Tealael, Orchids and Dragons or Fluffy Chix, what I am is just plain old Frustr8. But nothing stops me from being the BEST FRUSTR8 POSSIBLE!

A general surgeon did one of my endoscopies, came out Looney as heck, sore throat, sore chest, felt drunk for a day and half, don't k,ow if he gave me enough sedation to perform a hysterectomy, but learned my lesson. Bariatric Surgeons or gastroenterologist from now on, when I tried to talk to him about my reactions he was NASTY, basically told me to shut my 👄 mouth. He'll Never Touch my body again!

Yeah I can Relate!

Yeah I now sport a D.A. had one of these back in the late 50s when I was a young teenager, will it grow into a mullet? We will just have to wait and see, someone yesterday said I looked cute and my hair was curling and waving a lot! Not sure where their keeper was but either their mind or eyesight was fading fast! People in their 70s usually aren't CUTE, I still. am convinced I look like a moulting Bird!🐓🐦🐔

And PS , turned on the Weather Channel, woman on there talking about barbecuing. Her last name is Porshe- Smith, honey --she is still Big as A Buick. But I am feeling benevolent enough to give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe SHE is fighting HER OWN BATTLE TOO! 😜🍳😝

And nothing beats being slimmer in a Warm Season! Always felt like they were playing " Baby Elephant Walk" as I tried passing by. I SHALL EVEN WEAR SHORTS THIS SUMMER! Maybe Lulu Hogg instead of Daisy Dukes, but my day shall still COME!

Let us know if it does turn out We are All going to be God- Aunts and Uncles, okay?

Go to Ensure High Protein, Protein Max or even Glucerna, even if you're not Diabetic it will work! And it does come in Butter Pecan ( if. you are in the US) as Well as other "loverly" tastes. I got so bored with the standard flavors but then I have had to remain on those p.s. an inordinate amount of time!

I need to go, not only do my hips hurt this AM, even my finger joints hurt too! Getting Old is not as much fun as I expected!💔😜💔

And is he now Treading Water Somewhere? Or perhaps, having a Recovering Wife will be Punishment Enough! Don't have a Husband anymore, but I do have a Son, had to take over some of the functions! Tomkitten would tell You,it is Minor Miracle he did not go Bald or at least, go Gray! I was a Stormin' Norma for a while! Oh I could look pale and Wan in public but behind the scenes it was Katie Bar The Door! Instead of Calgon Take Me Away, it was" Save Me PLEASE Save me!" He would have joined the French Foreign Legion if he could have found an application and be able to read French! I can, 5 years of the Language but C'est Dommage , I WOULD NOT HELP anybody at that point! But it has been 9 and a half months, he has f8nalky come out of hiding and His Nervous Twitch is getting much better! LOL, you will live, if not, post- death is Not Painful! Much Love to You All-----Frustr8

And Just like A Wounded Animal you want only to retreat to Your Cave until You Feel All Better! I know you feel impatient, among other things, But Do Give Yourself permission to heal! You and Your Body have been through a lot This Week! Not all of Us leave the Bariatric Center singing the" Battle Hymn of the Republic" more of us are Muttering Under our Breath, holding on to someone or something, saying Why Me Lord? Why DID I AGREE TO ALL THIS? But like sunshine after the ☔ rainstorms, 8t Really Gets Better! We all, in some way, have limped and flinched, We Got Better, and in just a little while THINGS DO GET BETTER! Stay strong, still Sip Sip Sip, lick your Sugar Free Popsicles, remember almost everyone, this is what it takes, You have now paid your Dues, You are now a Part of the POST SURGERY CREW- Hurts Now, WON'T FOREVER!

But before Too Longer, you will change your name, at least in your mind to I'M A REAL WINNER!" And in the meanwhile, remember We are Very Proud of YOU and CONGRATULATIONS!

Ye0, there are moments when even a recliner doesn't seem to help! But the pain, the Core Hurt gets better after Time passes, hard to believe, but every day, in so many ways, you'll be Happy, Its Done and you Will Get All Better! And you will no longer put a contract out on your Surgeon's Very Life! This I Do Promise!

Hear what you're preaching , I do. think we all are in that congregation!

I still like I Rusted and Had to Be Wire--Brushed s9rt 9f like an Old Barbeque Grill!

Would You Really NEED It?

And I Thought the person performing the RNY m8ght have been Drunk! Might make your abdomen look like you were rotissoried! YE-OUCH!

Oh You mean like a cheap aSyag Rug? I heard of obe, when it started to return, the fuzz and regrowth was totally a different shade? That made her look pretty mangy like a ugly old 🐕 dog!!

Buffalo Wings, Cookies, Baked potatoes, even A Thick MilkShake , Ah Yes---I remember THEM WELL! Sniff Sniff!, 💦

And I compain in grocery stores, especially in produce, meats and the frozen food bunkers÷ I'm a Real Joy to have around!

And I think your Grady Tomcat is a treasure, you had just better keep him, they don't often make models that fine!👪

And even though mine are pretty pale I still regard mine as Battle Ribbons, I fought in the Weight Wars, thanks to my Surgeon I did win that skirmish and until the Final Armistance I will continue the Fight by continuing to lose. And when the War shifts into Peacetime with Maintenance, I will be a Happy Veteran, for I survived that challenge and I am the Ultimate Winner!🏆😜

I like Biddy ZZ little friend, definitely raises an excellent point. We westerners are a strange breed, some things we will wink at , yet others we are appalled at. Social Norms are inconsistant at best.

Oh I am unique, if you don't think you like me , give me a chance I'll unique up on you! LOL😝
