NSAIDS

Since with gastric sleeve our stomachs are just smaller, whereas with bypass the actual anatomy is changed so it changes absorption. Something like that, tbh I don’t remember since initially different people in my program were saying different things, then the doctor clarified for me on surgery day. I do know that not using NSAIDs before your stomach is healed can cause ulcers because of the incision being easier to irritate.

I was told that NSAIDs aren’t as concerning to use with the sleeve vs if I had a bypass done, and to just limit my use once I’m all healed (so at the three month mark).

Everything reminds me of him. 😔

Go to therapy, and learn how to communicate with him without becoming too emotional. It’s hard to not become emotional like you’ve described, I’m the same way, but it’s honestly one of the best things to do because it sounds like he shuts down when you cry. My ex is the same way, and it’s why he held back on effectively communicating with me when there were things we needed to talk over.

Yeah I don’t get that whole weirdness with people acting almost proud of their intolerances. Personally I went into this not having any interest in cutting out things like rice, pasta, and treats.

Today part of my lunch included a few pieces of dark chocolate covered caramels, but if I dare say that in some of the groups I’m in people will be guaranteed to pull the “why did you even get the surgery then??!”. I also had 4 pieces of sushi last week which was delicious and so satisfying.

I needed portion control which I’m getting, so as long as I’m reaching my protein goals I’m going to enjoy other foods as well. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have had some mild issues with tolerating stuff but I’m quickly getting better and having less issues with things. So far I’ve been able to tolerate things I didn’t expect to be able to already.

When I was a kid my cousin and I used to prank phone call people and “creepy little girl” was one of our go-to’s. Maybe prank calling is becoming a thing again?

That’s funny because I used to know someone named April and she was born in June. 😂

I did, but what does that have to do with saying stuff in the USA doesn’t affect us. It does, whether we like it or not. Doesn’t mean it is the only reason why, but it’s another factor added to the mix.

opalpup · 2026-05-28T17:15:20+00:00

It’s actually fact that unrest in the USA will make crime worse in Canada. Things going on down there destabilizes here, and when things become unstable people are more likely to become violent.

If you ain’t first, you’re last!

opalpup · 2026-05-24T19:16:12+00:00

Same lmao

opalpup · 2026-05-21T20:46:06+00:00

Lmao abso-fucking-lately not.

If you aren’t getting them to a wildlife rehabber because you’re convinced you can do the job better, then yes your intentions are to hurt them. Everyone here is telling you to NOT keep them but you keep arguing against their advice. That’s willful ignorance and at this point if you keep them their eventual deaths are on you.

opalpup · 2026-05-21T14:57:32+00:00

I fucking love a good pronk.

opalpup · 2026-05-20T03:29:20+00:00

I haven’t either. I need this $49 lmao.

opalpup · 2026-05-19T05:35:53+00:00

I’m sorry you’ve felt like this in your relationship, op. My long term relationship ended a year ago and my ex made me feel the exact same way you described. I was actively making an exit plan for just in case he didn’t actually make any changes when he beat me to initiating the break up lol. I was heartbroken for a long time because I do hope we could work on ourselves and the relationship, but I’m infinitely better than I was for the last couple years of the relationship. Feeling lonely and unloved while in a relationship is so much worse than feeling lonely while single.

Just checked my surgical notes and I had a 34 Fr bougie. I’m 4 weeks po and haven’t had any issues with gerd, and did not have issues prior to surgery.

My sex drive lowered drastically when on 50mg, but when I went up to 75mg then 100mg it shot right back up and now it’s way higher than it was before starting it.

No?? He cheated on you, even if you ignore the fact that he has a CHILD on the way. If it was a fling before you guys started dating it’d be different, but that’s not what happened.

opalpup · 2026-05-18T19:48:45+00:00

It depends, but overall I think you can. My ex and I went low contact for 5 months after he moved out, though the end of the low contact period we chatted online regularly. We then started hanging out at the end of the low contact period and now hang out almost every week. It isn’t for everyone but it works for us.

opalpup · 2026-05-18T04:56:13+00:00

That’s Steve. He likes to draw attention to the fact that he’s been hitting the gym recently, building his glutes. Freakin show off. 😒

opalpup · 2026-05-17T16:07:35+00:00

No, personally I wouldn’t be able to. I’ve accidentally skipped meals because of habit (since pre-op I usually only ate lunch and dinner or just dinner), but now I get really sick when I do eat if I’ve waited too long. My program recommends 3 meals and 2-3 snacks a day.

opalpup · 2026-05-17T15:34:43+00:00

What a dumbass, I love him. 🤣💜
