Lovabull-- how are you doing? Have you gotten relief from your little problem? I know when you feel that so keenly, it does not seem small.

If you are cleared for cream of rice or wheat, I wouldn't see why not . To my mind it would be easier than oatmeal to digest. But don't make it real thick at first.[emoji173].[emoji13] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -
Which surgery do you recommend for me and why?How soon may I return to exercising? When will I be released to return to the gym? When can I go swimming or use a hot tub? When can I have sex again? If I do need plastic surgery in the future, who might you Recommend? IWhat protein shakes have worked best in your practice? Am I young enough that my skin will snap back into shape and I'll avoid plastic surgery? How much weight should I attempt to lose before surgery? Do you or your hospital sponser support groups and how often do they meet? Can I have a family member or friend with me before and after surgery? At my BMI what is your policy on liquid pre surgery diet?. For what period of time would be best? Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Probably can wait but you may stay miserable until you see him.FYI, I have a little baby ulcer which I have named Hector, I have no h.pylori so Hector came from too much ibuprofen chewing on my stomach lining. Gives me the same sort of pain, he gets especially peeved from coffee and some foods.[emoji26] And the little stinker enjoys reminding me he 's down there. I have to take Dexilant to keep him napping. [emoji12] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

I think my depression is easing
frust8 replied to Mattymatt's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
And you feel not the best after surgery, sometimes you have buyers regret, you feel like you are trapped in a dark scary forest. You can't for a while see the beauty of each tree. But with the sunlight of getting healthy & feeling better, you start to be able to cope with your new life, it's okay and you're okay too.[emoji106][emoji106] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

And I suspect this is the same letter my PCP sent on my behalf.[emoji14] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -
Don't stress, it's more likely Martians will land at the Lincoln Memorial than your surgery be aborted . You are just having an attack of "What If-itis, extremely common in the immediate pre-surgical community. In most cases it is cured by the "Whew I did it" syndrome. Nobody has ever died from "What If-itis", it's just pesky while you have it.Another thing, it leaves few if any scars. Perk up Penny Sue, every little thing gonna be all right![emoji172][emoji13][emoji171][emoji12][emoji173][emoji12][emoji170] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

I like to think of it as your body re-booting, then you lose some more.[emoji14] Unfortunately it seems to be a common complaint on BP, it's like you lose by fits and spurts[emoji26] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

May or June Surgery date:
frust8 replied to acrowder61's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No but I have kinfolk in Sepulpa and around Tulsa and I always thought Owasso had such a pretty sound to it. There was a,movie oh about the 60s or so with Pat Boone and Buddy Hackett. Buddy's character was supposed to be Chickasaw Indian with a pet bird named Owasso, stuck n in the back,of my mind until I saw your post. Don't remember if it was a chicken or seagull, I think,maybe chicken.[emoji215] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -
