Dr. Who fans will understand...



Recommended Posts

I've decided not to tell anyone about my mini gastric bypass surgery in two weeks but my husband (of course) and my mom who will be watching my kids.

Well, my husband got me a little, early Christmas present for my surgery. It's so clever and hilarious, but since I'm not telling anyone about my surgery, no one can appreciate it as much as it deserve.

It's a pillow shaped like an adorable little character from Dr. Who. It's adipose! It's from an episode where people take these diet pills which make their fat turn into these little guys that then pops out of their skin and runs away! It's totally absurd and hilarious.

The pillow is for hugging post op when I cough and in the car to protect my belly from the seatbelt.

Please tell me there are Dr. Who fans out there that can enjoy/appreciate this as much as I do!

Ha! That is pretty clever! I'm a Doctor Who fan, but my husband isn't so it wouldn't have occurred to him to do something like that. It is perfect, though!

Now I want one. Or Cthulhu slippers. Wasn't that the episode that introduced Donna? She was my favorite.

Clever indeed! Very supportive too. Like Dr. Who as well, not so sure about the newest iteration of the Doctor though.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
