thinking of getting a gastric sleeve fitted

[VKD]

has anyone gone through this procedure?

Frankly, eating well and doing exercise is for shmucks. I want the easy option


will I still be able to eat roast pork?

You're so funny. It isn't the easiest option for sure. You have to be willing to commit to a very restrictive diet and exercise. I'm having the VSG done on December 5th. The reward for me will be getting off most or all of the meds I'm on and easing up on my arthritis issues. If you feel that WLS is for you, go for it. Although I'm pretty sure you are bringing it up in hopes of embarassing me, if not, I'd be supportive of anything you do to help yourself be a healthier person.

 

[VKD]

I had no idea you were considering it. You said you had lost a great deal of weight since the Susan Boyle pics of '04, so why do you need it?

it may not be the 'easy' option, but losing weight the normal way is far better.

 

[NaughtE]

Thanks for your input. What is your personal weight and health management experience?

 

[VKD]

I have maintained a healthy weight my whole life. at one point when I became a little overweight I did plenty of exercise and ate less and was soon back to a normal weight

 

[NaughtE]

That is wonderful for you. So, why did you start this thread then?

 

[VKD]

well tbh it was for a fat friend of mine who was too embarrassed to ask for himself

 

[NaughtE]

Sure.

 

[NaughtE]

You know what is fun, VKD - you and I can neg each other and it doesn't make any difference.

 

[VKD]

I think jack has some formal training in health and nutrition - you could ask him for some help and advice.

I hope the operation goes well for you

 

[NaughtE]

LOL - I am working with a professional staff I trust to help me with my health issues. Thanks for your well wishes, though, and good luck to your "friend."

 

[VKD]

lay off the mac 'n cheese though...

 

[NaughtE]

LOL - I haven't eaten mac 'n cheese in years. That will be one of the nice things about the surgery. I will be able to eat some things I haven't been able to eat in years. True, it will be much smaller portions than a full serving, but it will still be nice. You really haven't researched VSG's very much. If your friend is just wanting to lose weight, he might be more interested in a lap band or if he has a great deal of weight to lose he might want to go for a gastric bypass.

It is obvious you've been cyberstalking me again, you know.

Now, are you going to admit you are Yahooee?

 

[VKD]

I've been cyberstalking you? that's quite a serious accusation.

what proof do you have?

 

[NaughtE]

Your own words.

You've pretty much intimated you are Yahooee too. You care to confirm that?

 

[VKD]

I'm not Yahooee, but I have a pretty good idea who they are.

 

[NaughtE]

I have some thoughts about who Yahooee is also.

 

[VKD]

link or PM me all the info you have about Yahooee - I'll find out who they are for you. No charge

 

[VKD]

you haven't offered me any prove of the cyberstalking accusation.

you shouldn't throw accusations like that around without evidence. you should know that as you work in the law field.
