Seriously curious



Recommended Posts

I don't think I'll tell anyone I'm having surgery. Do you think any one will notice if I lose like 70 pounds?

I would advise not telling anybody about your surgery. They will hardly notice the weight loss. Just make sure you talk alot about exercise and they will think that you are doing it "the old-fashion" way!:confused:

No, they have to go through your vagina to adjust it.

Shee-it... Well if I'dda knowd that, I would have done it too and had it tightened. Hubby's been complaning about the extra room up there. And it makes all those "farty" sounds when we... well... it makes the dogs start crying.

What about my husband? Should I tell him? Do you think he will really notice 5 cuts on my belly and that I don't eat real food for a month?

You will have some extra room for awhile and then it will start to sag! So get it while you can!

Insurance will pay for the band IF:

You are too cute for words

Plan to eat Whoppers for lunch on the way home from the hospital

Your IQ is lower than your BMI

You are allergic to donkeys and pickles

You never plan to visit Mexico or Argentina

You plan to have triplets 2 mos. after surgery

Your boyfriend is named Willie

No exceptions!

TPG

Please note the BMI/IQ requirement. It's possible to confuse the 2 numbers...hence your need for the band.

You mean my already three-inch vulva will SAG? So I'll have to start rolling them up like my titties? Gawd, I hate my band.

Pickle juice MIGHT erode the band from the inside (note, drinking it is fine). However, I have noticed that liquid detergent works really well.

Sorry, you're f*cked. Thinner, yes, but you look like a melted candle, right? That's what you get for eating too many Big Macs in the first place. Deal. Maybe join the circus as the amazing melting woman.

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
