I totally missed that one, too. Bummer. I thought the OP was talking about the classy hushxpuppyx in the stretched sleeve thread.

There's an ongoing "Marijuana and Life after Bariatric Surgery" thread that hasn't gotten volatile, so I guess the deleted thread was all about a particular participant rather than the subject.

I was kinda thinking it was stretched sleeve too.

Since Tony Bennett has been named here, I want you to know that in 1964 I was at a friend's Sweet 16. It was in an old-style, glamorous sort of nightclub in Brooklyn, an unusual venue for a party for 30 or so teenagers. The entertainer was -- tada! -- Tony Bennett himself, in the flesh, live, right before our eyes. We all knew him, of course, but our callow selves were not fully appreciative. The show seemed to go on forever and we got quite restless. The adults of the Sweet 16 girl's family, at a nearby table, had a high old time, though.

What a great story.

There is a metaphor for this topic in there somewhere.

I must have missed said post. LOL!

I must've too!

Darnit! It sounds like it was great entertainment.

She called us all fat. I was going to post but it was closed before i could. "Wrong, I WAS fat!". It wasn't her fault she was fat though.

I thought she was a first time poster, but when I looked at her profile, she had threaded before. She did sound completely different. Maybe someone (a kid maybe) got hold of her account? She lost me with all the chat speak and thinly disguised swear words (including the N word). Oh, and we are all fat...except for her. She has reasons.

I don't know about a metaphor, but it surely says that I'm a babe of advanced years. The French have a much nicer (?) phrase which translates as "a woman of a certain age." Me and Catherine Deneuve. Not bad.

(stands up and clears throat)

It was my fault. She said she wasn't fat because of what she ate, she was fat because of genetics, so I told her to call her surgeon and cancel the surgery because it wasn't going to help her since she wasn't fat from eating, and the surgery restricts eating.

Sometimes, I'm a bad girl.

You are our fearless leader. Now stand in the corner.

Catherine Deneuve is my fantasy alter ego.

To borrow from "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?" and perk it up --

Inner Surfer Girl, you are Catherine Deneuve.

Anyone who was a model for Marianne is an excellent choice for fantasy alter ego.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
