Had surgery earlier today and feel good
Frustr8 replied to Panda333's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
AZ Hiker, you remind me of the joke about the lost dog, one broke down ear, partially deaf , recovering from mange, so missing fur, noticeable limp, recently neutered. The punch line- Answers to the name of LUCKY, You, my dear, are one plucky lady and I am so glad things went well, about time, and now You Are marching forward into Good Health! I do believe You Will Be a SUCCESS and like the old commercial for Timex Watches " You took a Licking and Kept on Ticking!" You are a Grade A Number One Inspiration to Us All! -
Thank You Chula- may We All become the Legends We Were Born to Be!

Ooh Rocket2016, I thought I knew. what it meant. but checked out over on Wikipedia. Scary Larry. situation- I too have chronic gastritis but happily without the metaplasia ; means you may be at higher risk for Barrets Esophagus, you have changes which aren't really good. Barretts can be a precursor for Esophageal Cancer, and Baby You Do not Want that! My first cousin June-Ellen died of that in May 2017 at 68, didn't know that she had it -thought she just had bad GERD - but died on the Operating Table at the Cleveland Clinic- and Oh I still miss her so Very Very MUCH. And happily I girded my loins, so to speak, continued to seek my RNY which I had on September 5th 2018 and my start down that road. was aborted. So PLEASE do watch close on THAT; don't leave those who β€ you to cry and ask "Why?" like my family did. Glad your h. pylori was negative, that's ONE Thing to cross off the Bad Things list. But do take care of You, the World and those you mean something to, need You Here!

ge junction with mucosal tear during balloon dilation?
Frustr8 replied to Darktowerdream's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Darktower I still β€you,what's more I respect you for facing these challenges and still going forward, even if our journeys aren't the same as many others, they are still valid, nobody should be putting you down in any form. I was sitting here trying to evaluate MYSELF,not always easy, I know Me best but things often bewildered me, sometimes they still do. Was hard stopping trying to make myself into what others wanted instead of what I Needed. Stay Strong, and just be your Best You, we need you here, okay? -

When you file your Class Action $ suit against Thin Mints, I might consider one for the "One Size Fits All " people-Big Liars- truth in advertising should say" One Size Fits Some- Another Size Might Fit Others". One very nice blessing about diminishing My Size- No more Mustard Yellow, Nausea Green and Liver- shaded outfits! In Pastels heading for bright prints and colors! No more Holstein Blotches, I'm Polka-Dotted and Proud! πππ©

They have made me strong, they have made me self- reliant, and they have granted me HOPE for the FUTURE.

It will get BETTER but SOME of US do have it rockier than others. I WAS and still AM doing all this at the ripe old Age of 73 and honey, it all doesn't go as smooth as if I was 23, 53 or even 63' knew that when I opted into All THIS but I am 13 months out, lost half the Weight I started with, still not tiny, probably never will be, but I have fought HARD to make it down to 180 pounds and a 18, sliding down to a 16' and if you find any of my old postings You'll see I didn't have an Easy Trip along the Way. But Honey , do stay the course, it will finally smooth out, there was Sunshine behind the StormClouds for ME and I can't help there will be for YOU TOO! Much Love, and I almost always am around to talk to, if needed! OKAY? -
