Embarrassing post-op moments?



Recommended Posts

So today I was sitting around proctoring while my students took an exam, naturally it was very quiet EXCEPT for my stomach that was making loud inhuman noises randomly throughout the whole session. I kept hoping no one would hear them because we are in a good sized lecture hall or that if anyone could hear them that they would just think I was very hungry and not that I had to go to the bathroom or anything lol

Anyone have a similar experience or want to share the self-humality with a story of their own?

No. I can't beat that. I'm thinking maybe no one can!

But maybe cuz it's cause you said "proctor" in connection to gurgly gas sounds? bahahahaha 🤣

Just my icky hiccup/burp noises. I think the fellow members of my teaching team are used to it, but I still think they’re gross

I was about 1 month out from surgery and had to make a trip out of state for a family obligation. While visiting, I had lunch with my former neighbors and very good friends. We went to my favorite Chinese restaurant. I enjoyed my egg drop Soup and had a few bites of cashew chicken. *I was on soft regular food by then.

Well, I guess something did not agree with my sleeve. I started foaming and sliming all over the place. I tried to walk it off. Hell, I even had my friend pound my back like some overgrown toddler needing to burp. I thought I was going to vomit, so went into the bathroom where all of a sudden I felt better. So, I went back to visit with my friends and mid-sentence, a mouthful of foam just appeared.

I was mortified. My friends were shocked.

I'm embarrassed to admit (not really), I can't figure out the joke?

Lol. At least it was someone you were hopefully close enough too where they understood why your stomach was making those noises. I wasnt about to explain to a lecture hall full of students that I had surgery and my stomach wasnt making those noises because I had to sh*t

Ex lover's friend: "Why did you break up with her?"
Ex lover: "I just couldn't take the noises her stomach made after sex"
Legit reason

Now I'm going to cry where no one can hear me, in the shower while washing my hair...

I never considered someone discussing it... With friends

Oh the, cards against, humanity

Proctor - or even shorter..."procto" and then in relation to gas. Not nearly as funny when explained, but I heart nose and potty humor so I was easily amused by it. :D

      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? 🤷‍♀️
