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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
