    It's National Donut Day

    And Thank You (I think?) to my RNY, I have lost or abandoned my desire for donuts and any of their fat- containing and fat-prevoking cousins. Funny, a short 👈😛👉yeat ago I could not say that!
  2. I think I used to be allergic to Junk Food, it made me break out in lumps of fat!👈😛👉

    Last meal!

    And a v good time was had by all? You know, so much sounds good, but so little actually does take good. Made myself split pea soup yesterday, wonder how meals I'll get before I can't stand even the thought of it?
  4. Oh my oh my, I didn't realize they demand you to be in A-1 condition or they are not interested in you! Seems awfully strick but I guess I also would want the Best of The Best to maintain my freedom and keep me safe.
  5. Oh my, and I though it was such nice stuffm

    Constipation

    You have suppositories in every bathroom? I thought I was excessive stashing readiing glasses in every room , because, You,Just Never,know when you might have to read instructions, after all!

    3 month post RNY foods

    Yeah our natural Autopiot kept flying us into bad locations, didn't it? Much better following the rules your surgeon set diwn, besides if it doesn't work perfect you have someone else to blame.
  8. That's something we don't readily consider, keep the fluids going in, when you're producing pale and plentiful urine, you're much less likely to pass sand, gravel and stones!💦
  9. Yeah you may never know how good your weight losing would have been, the immediate few weeks are when we have our first good losses and you may have blunted the Good effects. We don't always get granted a "Do Over" sad to say.😣
  10. And I hope today dawned better for you!

    Linzess for constipation

    And the more I read about Linzess, the less I desire it! Has some scary side effects listed, have to be backed against the wall to consider it!

    Constipation Again

    And this morning I am recovering from the elusive Poo💩. Well I took some Ducolax liquid last weekend, the 1/2 hour to 6 hours variety,took 12t hours before it kicked in and worked. Do I have a weird colon or what? When I went to ER on the First, their assesment was ileitis. Now my Worry Machine has started firing. Could this mean I'm starting into IBS or Crohns? Wouldn't that be just the. way MY LIFE would go! I read of all the Bari- pals dropping HB meds, Diabetes meds, dicontinuing their C-paps. Meanwhile here I am, every. time I have a test I seem to have a "hidden detremint" something besides what I was tested for. Am I breaking down or is it merely that I am just finding out about these things now and I might have had it all along? Well yesterday my 💩wagon seemed to have derailed again, okay Do I want to drag myself to local ER once again? Well the liquid Ducolax was sluggish last time, I have some generic Docolax pills , says Equate Women's Laxative, comes in a pretty pink box. Well it says" one or 2 pills for relief" I'm still a big girl, ready to tumble into Onederland, so I took 2. Note To Self- "Do Not Do that again!" it waited until 6 this morning, headed there, started to sit down and it came Sailing Right out! Like a Shart on Steroids, all over my PJ top, the seat and up my back more than down my legs! Have not rationalized That One! So stripped down and tryed to clean myself with Baby wipes, and all it kept doing was leave me looking like I had been painted with thin charcoal paint! And the smell- something had to have crawled up my rectum and died a Slow Painful Death! So jumped in the shower and scrubbed and scrubbed. And what I had been wearing went into the washer. An hour-and -half I did it again, another outfit into the washer, still got my tail of top soiled with the nasty green-black stuff . But the time things settled down, which I pray they have, between the clothing, towels and washclothes, there was full load, didn't want my son to smell that odor, shoot I didn't. even want to smell it although it was my own! So from now on, 1 pill if I need it again. I learned my lesson pretty forcefully, score is 💩5 Frustr8 nil.

    Low heart rate

    Just remember to get up slow and smooth and easy, don't want anybody passing out from Orthostatic Hypotension! At least Ladies- you are on that side of the Spectrum, with Hyper you could feel like the ❤is trying to jump out of your chest!

    Impatience & how to prevent loose skin

    Way to Go Taoz, it's thrilling to hear from you! One thing nice about my Bariatric Clinic,weighing in Metric, I have left the Triple Digits behind! Long way I have come down and I'm not through yet! My skin looks like my under- skin Siamese twin was removed but the tired saggy skin remains. But you know what? When I put clothes on , I can hide the bulk of it, no longer looks like I just pushed. it somewhere else! And my facial looks keep changing , not sure who I am going to resemble most! As long as it isn't Boris Johnson from England I think I'll be okay!
  18. Wife walking in with new 👗 dress. Husband: Where did you get that? Why didn't you say "Get Thee behind Me, Satan?" Wife: Oh I Did, I Did, Honey! But he said " Ooo Baby, It looks even better from Back Here!" So I just had to have it! LOL 😛

    Six months post-op+ : The Sophomores Thread

    Yeah you're right, rather a "Come here, look what I'm packing!" that expression , I was tempted to say " Oh, did you get another piece of luggage?" Inside the Bad Evil ME is thinking "Oh a train case, scarcely qualifies as a Carry-On!"

    Six months post-op+ : The Sophomores Thread

    Black jeggings, oh I used to envy Fluffy Chix and the rest because I never could find them to fit my former fat booty without going to Catherine's or Added Dimensions in Columbus. Well something seems to have happened on my way to the Zoo to see the kinfolk. These are not the largest Wally World stocks, but one down. And on top my my firstest Junior Top, stripes, a size 19 and it says " I do rule my world" not painted, not hot bonded like at the Fair but Honest to God embriodery, like the young small girls wear! Maybe a small victory, on my feet a pair of yellow non- skid socks. Every time I have an Endoscopy at OSU, they give me a new pair. I think the total is 12 pairs, got one set at surgery, another from the Week stay where I received my PICC line. So I will be able to open my own Hosiery Emporium pretty soon because another pair will be coming my way next Wednesday. Pretty soon they should be able to put all my internal photos in a scrapbook. ❤😛💕
