It is a different culture

It is. And people saying "just have a coke" don't really understand. It's like going to a waterpark and someone telling you to just stand by the side wearing a ball gown and watch the fun, it's just as good.

I’m down with that but wouldn’t that be empty calories too? I say hit the pen. Just my opinion 😂

Consuming 5-10 calories and a couple grams of sugar (to me) far outweighs the tertiary effects of inhaling any chemical substance into your lungs. All of my surgeons and doctors support an edible but do not support or condone smoking of any kind.

If you're okay with that risk, then by all means, toke away!

Not sure if this is a funny question or not, but as you can see from the article there are several areas of health that smoking can effect.

Personally, I don't enjoy coughing, upper respiratory infections, shortness of breath in any form, etc.

Some people don't find drinking "fun." It's just the way it is. Not everyone has to drink in order to have fun. But I get it also that some can't enjoy life or have "fun" without being inebriated.

Woah there! I hate to channel our not long-departed friend but this is an Americanism and quite judgemental to say the least. I prefaced my previous post by saying some people don't understand and that's you.

The "pen" isn't smoking and nothing mentioned in that article apply to vaping.

hey listen, I'm not the researcher here. I'm only relaying my experience. Partake at your own risk.

...better yet, report back in 20 years after you have adequate scientific knowledge on the harmful effects of vaping. One thing is for certain, there is no health benefit for it whatsoever.

First of all this is a forum. I have no friends here, lol. I don't use that word loosely.

I said I understand. I explained it in my previous post. I'm not sure what's difficult to understand about this.

I don't care what nationality or culture I was, even if I wasn't American, I would have the same stance. It has nothing to do with where I live. Lol @ judgemental. Okayyy.

So yeah, I understand perfectly well.

No, I mean the research you quoted relates to smoking not vaping. You can't get lung cancer from vaping.

That's my opinion. I'm allowed to have opinions, lol. Just as you are.

I never asked for help. Did I?

No idea what this means. You're trying to scare people without evidence.

You're allowed to have judgemental opinions, I'm allowed to have opinions on your opinions and so your circular logic progresses, irrelevant to the point though it may be.

      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.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
