Leslie-Ha!!! The doctor that caught my thyroid disease was my mother's doctor that I'd gone to for a sinus infection. Pushed the sinuses, the glands, and then *boom* the thyroid. The endocrinologist couldn't figure out whether it was cancer or not so I had surgery. Been on meds ever since!

Oprah's got some bosoms, huh? Dang! Why does she do that weird voice? "RESISTAAAANCE....SWEEEEEET POTATOOOOO..." Stop already!

She sounds like a broken megaphone...now if she'd do that "whire whire whire" noise that'd be freakin' awesome...I'd tune in to watch that!

Giggle giggle....

Never? That word is not in my vocabulary! Of course I am jealous of you that can do that, but alas, it is not I.

Let us know when that is; would hate to accidently say the word...even in another context like 'poker chip', 'chip off the old block', chipping ice off the windshield...

Hey, I've tried for years to give it up, especially since I am so addicted to them. I gotta do it - and I'll tell you now... NEXT WEEK!! :thumbup:

OMG you cannot tell me with the "doctor's that woman has seen that she was just diagnosed with a thyroid disease...my goodness...I have one doctor and he caught mine...

It's always someone elses fault huh...Oprah open your eyes sweetheart - perhaps she needs cataracts surgery as well? OMG that was mean...(snicker snicker)...just shoot me...

Now THAT was funny!! I don't care who you are...:wink_smile:

I could totally relate to Oprahs ups and downs weight wise, if she would lose the attitude towards WLS. AND learn a bit from her own mistakes. I mean I yo yo'd too-----but after the first regain, I learned to not be smug about my losses!! To be proud is one thing, to be boastful and have a holier than thou attitude about it is something altogether different!

She has been putting on weight for some time again-----when you see her on TV she is much heavier than her ever present picture on her O magazine. I noticed this month finally she has now and then pics.

I have no issues with her getting fat again-----someday she will either have to accept herself the way she is, or acknowledge maybe there is another way.

It is not the easy way out.

And it can be life saving.

To lump us all as lazy---and unable to do it HER way irritates the hell outta me!

In fact very few of us CAN do it her way....personal chefs and trainers, and one on one help.

And you are all right, if she just now was found to have a thyroid condition, then her Dr.'s have definitely let her down! They found mine when I was 21 years old! I took meds for years, then last year it grew a massive tumor, I was scared spitless my cancer had returned....but it was benign, but it come out anyway....wellmost of it, the isthmus (center) and all of the left lobe, and part of the right. I am still taking my meds!

BUT.....I strongly believe any Dr. that you see if you have weight issues at all, will do a thryroid test standardly with your yearly blood work up.

Sounds like the excuse du jour! I know, I made up a bunch of them in my lifetime!!!

Makes me feel my decision to be banded was even better than I realized.

Susan and LJM - do NOT go to the prostitution thread. Do not. I went...and am sorry I did. I have now removed it from my listing...although I am SO fired up I could rant. But, no, I am just not participating.

on to other things....plese someone, distract me.

So, you checked it out then, huh??

that made me smile...LOL - HA!!

susan - just some BITC& on the board; asked me a question - i answered - then got a PM saying i was a know it all & that i should get a life with as many posts as i've made.

REALLY, no REALLY ???

got pissed - told DH i hope she PB's every meal for the month of january - then was reminded my inner voice was speaking. so i shut down and walked away.

I don't understand why people ask questions and then get ticked off when you answer them. Good grief people!!

The last time I was in there, it was pretty boring. Oh, I see pettygreen is running rampant. Well, I bet she isn't going to like what I had to say. :shuffling feet:

Dangit Mac, now I have to go back to that thread because I can't resist reading what you said!!!

You painted -- I did Richard. :thumbup: I had to do it to keep from crying. Hard to do aerobics while doing the wubba-wubbas.

You did Richard??!! Shock_by_neiljane.png

NSV's - smaller jeans, swing dancing with hubby and no I'm-so-out-of-breath-I'm-going-to-die feeling, and hit a couple of personal bests at the gym during my time off.

Awesome NSV's EbonyRose!! Celebrate_by_Kioko_Yasu.gif

I guess this would qualify as an NSV: Boss asked me today if I had lost more weight. It's nice that somebody noticed. :wink_smile:

It absolutely does qualify, way to go!!

I got a little carried away with my starvation diet today ...now I feel all sicky and weak...

I had 1 boiled egg today and some carrot sticks...note to self eat a little more...

I'm trying to give up the cheetos and fruitroll ups.

I hear ya, I am doing the five day pouch test, today is just day one and I am dieing to chew something! Plus, it is a good thing the ladies room is directly across from my office with all the Water they expect you to drink when doing this. I have worn a new path.

Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a great holiday. Missed you all.

I tried to catch up on all the posts I missed but after nearly 2 weeks of being "unplugged" it was impossible so I'm just going to have to cry "Uncle!"

I went to see Mommy in KY and it was great. Her Alzheimer's is not as advanced as my sis made it out to be so it was especially nice to be surprised in that way.

Off topic - they're showing this local man who stole money from investors (think a small-time Madoff). This jack ass stole $1.3M from a lady that had Alzheimer's. Unbelievable.

Just weighed (6pm and clothed). Having a super tight band has me down 4 pounds! Woohoo

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
