Guest guest Posted December 3, 2000 Report Share Posted December 3, 2000 Thanks for the post, Bobbi !! You're a very good example for all of us, please stay in touch! Hugs, Trudy hello everyone! i haven't posted in a while but i read everyday! im glad everyone is coming along well. i will be 7 weeks post op on monday. i have lost 43 pounds as of this past wednesday. 7 1/2 inches off the waist at clinic i was 302 and 48 inches on waist. i have dumped once and that was with lettuce. so lettuce is gone for now. i am so glad the 1st month is over. i thought i was going to go crazy. i still drink a lot of fluids and avoid things that may have a hard time going through. i have eaten several things: soft taco(no lettuce)- former favorite, remains a FORMER favorite spaghetti- did fine with lean beef tuna and chicken salad on 1 slice of toast- did fine seafood salad-(no lettuce) did fine baked potato-fine rice- fine i could go on all night. my point is, ive tried certain things that i use to love and now have no desire at all. i had read that same comment from post ops before i had surgery. now i know exactly what they mean. i have no desire to eat candy or cakes or brownies. ok let me stop before we have a chocolate attack. its supposed to snow tonight here. we always want what we don't have and have what we dont want. i did get me some popcicles to suck on. i had to force myself to like sugar free stuff but ive adapted.. i survived thanksgiving and didnt even have turkey. i love turkey but it can be dry if your dear old grandmother forgets to baste! sorry to take up so much space. but its been a while for me! 9 more pounds and i'll be at a 12 year low. since high school! bobbie mgb 10-16-00 302-251-???

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2000 Report Share Posted December 3, 2000 Cindy, I love to read 's posts too. Don't you just crack up at the unique way she has of putting things and then add the lack of punctuation--that just adds to the flavor. Go . Hope you get to where you can eat some gooooood food. But at three weeks, I was still on liquids and maybe a little rice. 8 weeks now and I am eating it allll. betty Re: > Girl-friend, >Is there a law against punctuation where you come from, or are you just drinking too much coffee? hehe, sister...just teasin' ya!

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 I must say that I agree with the person (Trudy maybe) who said that should share her experiences with the group. I also think that she should make note on every post that she did not have the MGB. I have been on here long enough to know that she had the RNY but the new people wont know that. Her weight loss has been exceptional, due to slight complications, and I think her results can be misleading to some. I, personally, do not want pre-ops to see her mention her weight loss and think that the same type of weight loss is attainable for them. Secondly, I did not see anything offensive with what was said to her. I did think that her comment about " haters " on this list was offensive to me. I have never seen anyone on this list be anything but helpful and supportive. The folks on this list were very supportive to and I think that is the main reason that she is here.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 Hi Lynnette, I am sorry if you feel neglected or ignored. I am just now getting to the point where I am talking some, and you are welcome here. I enjoy hearing everyones story / stories. I didnt feel like I " fit in " either when I first came here, but I now understand that to have folks talk to me, I have to talk too. I wish you all the success in the world with your surgery, I was an emotional basket case before mine, I was scared / excited . Let me say " Welcome " and Hello to you. Best of Luck and Happy New year to you and yours Carla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 Lynnette, I dont want to " chastise " anyone. But since this IS the Mini Gastric Bypass egroup and she did not have the MGB, she is somewhat different. I never said that she should leave. What I said was that I think she should let it be known that she had a different procedure. Her experiences and complications can be valuable information to pre-ops and those seeking information about different procedures. I am SURE that there were some newbies to the list who assumed she had the MGB. I am a big advocate of being " correctly " informed and being able to make an informed decision. If you are feeling neglected on the site... maybe you dont participate. I dont ever remember seeing a post from you except within the last few days. There are more than enough topics discussed or questions asked to make anyone feel welcome and have their say. But this is just one black woman's opinion and my dad always says, " Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one, and most of them stink.

I think that we should all be jolly right!!lol Since as we all know Fat people are suppose to be. Are we all getting thinner skins as we are loosing weight lol. If someone says something you don't like or hurts your feelings how about telling that person, again I say most people don't realize they have hurt someone's feelings. I may have missed something but I haven't read anything bad someone has said. but again if you dont like what is said delete it and ignore it.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 Well said Marg!!!!!!! As far as I am concerned everyone is welcome here and treated fairly. We are like a family and when we have a problem with something that someone says it should be discussed with that person. That person should not just up and run without giving the accused a chance to have a say and decipher what may have been taken wrongly by the reader.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 I agree Lynette, that we should all support each other. I don't agree that RNY's are treated any differently. Nor should they be. I know one other very important thing, though, and that is that the one real flaw with email is that we can not hear the tone of someone's words. Intonation is a key part of communication. I know Trudy and I know her heart. I really beleive that her words were heard in a way that was different from her intent. She just wanted everyone to know that had had the RNY and that she had had complications which prevented her from being able to swallow, and that she required a second procedure to fix this problem, and that she also has an ulcer, and that all of this had contributed to 's extraordinary weight loss. That's all. Trudy was thinking that newbies on this site might think 75 pounds in a few weeks was 'standard' and Trudy was just saying that the whole story should be told. I also believe that was extremely MO (in the 400's if I remember correctly) and that plays a factor as well. That's all that was meant, nothing at all negative nor pejorative. Just a slight misunderstanding. And yes, we are all adults. Many folks have asked to please stay. I hope she does. Whatever her decision, though, I hope we can move on. . .

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 I must be reading a different list. Never have I seen a post " chastising " or anyone else who chose a different route. To the contrary - I have always been so proud of everyone going out of their way to welcome every list member with open arms no matter what procedure they choose. I remember when announced she was having the RNY and why --- everyone wished her luck and begged her to stay on the list. I do not agree that explaining to " newbies " that she had a different procedure is " chastising " . Sometimes it is difficult to accurately read the poster's meaning or attitude through email and I truly believe no harm was meant. We all want and Lynnette to stay on the list and welcome their input.
