  1. I haven't lost weight for a week guys. I think it's because of all this food you keep sending me over the interweb...

    or possibly too many toasted soldiers?? (PS we call that cannibalism...it's frowned upon). Perhaps your staples haven't passed???


  2. I can't make this better for you, just know that you have every right in the world to be mad and feel like your body has betrayed you. While my story isn't nearly as traumatic as yours I am also a failed band. Mine prolapsed and I had to have emergency removal, once inside he found I had started to erode as well. I was supposed to revise to RNY but once he was in and saw how much damage I had he felt it unwise to do the revision at that time (I did get a revision 6 months later). For weeks I was an emotional wreck. I was mad at my body, felt totally betrayed by it. Talk it out, cry it out, scream it out....what you're feeling is completely normal.


  3. The mother arrived. Looking quite old and very fragile. Statements in order of delivery: 'My God, you look beautiful'. "You keep a very nice house, Revs.' 'Whatever you're doing, you're doing really well. See, you don't need to think about surgery after all. <cue shame> If you can manage your food intake like you are, then you're doing it. You look stunning.' I love my Mum. I told her that I ate little and often and not to get on at me for eating little. I cooked and ate a roast chicken with all the trimmings this evening. They had normal portions. I had a smaller portion with all the veg, gravy, etc. She didn't say a word and 'cause there was gravy involved, I didn't feel 'stuck'. I did, however, feel like I needed a wee nap afterwards... 30 minutes later though, i was all good in the hood. Maybe a meal out won't be insurmountable after all. Thanks for the advice, folks :) x

    dear sweet mom...always knows just where that shame button is! Enjoy your visit.


  4. Ok I'll peruse the forums and see if I can dig something up... But in the meantime a shameless plug of my family hike and mushroom hunt :D

    FYI she whose name shall not be spoken still roams the halls...I'd like to kick her in her caps lock.
