Morning Shannon Bananan,
I love thunderstorms! We had quite a bit of lightning here last night.
Today is more Spring cleaning and work around the house.
My answer to the QOTD is the opposite of yours. I wish I felt like I even HAD surgery. I'm totally back to "normal" now, and long for the days of feeling full.
Have fun at the craft show. I haven't been to one in a long time. When the kids were little it was a fun way to spend an afternoon just walking around looking at stuff.

Morning all,
I had a really rough night w/ reflux. This is the 2nd time it's happened, and it is far worse than anything I had pre op. But I'm going to guess since I now know I have a mass (diaphragm or hernia) pressing on my stomach and lung it makes sense. But man it sucks, I was up from 2 to 5:30 because nothing helps, water, tums, yogurt... so I listened to the rain and the boomers for awhile, totally miserable and it isn't really letting up so far today.
Anyways, Q: I guess what happened last night is one thing I wish I could take back. I also would love to be able to eat some things in larger quantities, but I guess it's the larger quantities that got me in this place! I also miss Advil, and ice cream (my pouch is not really fond of it ).
But I'd do it all again in a heartbeat!
Try to have a great day,
Edie

I had really baddddddddddd heartburn before surgery and none since....I thought you couldnt get heartburn anymore??? Do you have an ulcer? Taking prevacid daily? I hated getting woken up at night with that nasty burning taste in throat that wont go away!!!
Brenda- You cannot eat normally again in the same quantity...least I hope not!! Maybe a little more but not like before surgery???
I was on way home and it started snowing...grrrrrrr

Shannon,
I was dx'd with a mass last week that's either my diaphragm slipping/moved or a hernia. I have had a cough since a cold in Jan. and finally went in to get it checked out, they did a chest x ray and saw a mass that's pushing on my stomach / r lung area. I'm having a CT scan on Wed. so they can see exactly what it is that's there. But now that I know somethings there it's explaining allot of other little things...like why I haven't been sleeping well (I sleep on my stomach), not being able to take a full deep breath at times, the cough that won't go away...
But this "heartburn" for lack of a better word, there's pain, just not as burning as it used to be, but nothing helps it, and I mean nothing.
So as much as I don't want surgery, I want this fixed. I'm just extremely bummed that I'm probably going to have to have surgery again!

Shay-
I can eat WAY MORE than I could immediately post-op. I don't know exactly how much I could eat if I really wanted to. I have to stop myself from eating after I have a "normal" portion of something. The thing that sticks in my mind is I went out to lunch and was talking and not paying attention. Before I realized it I had eaten an entire sub, a bag of chips, and a big azz cookie and not been uncomfortable. Obviously that was a rare thing, but I can eat a lot and not be full.

Good morning!
I'm drinking my decaf with choc protein and a drop of mint extract. Had some WLS pancakes for breakfast with sugar free jelly.
QOTD - I'm not really sure what I'd change. I can already eat 4+ ounces at a time, I don't miss sugars - one thing I do wish is that we malabsorbed carbs .
I'm loving my RNY and wouldn't change a thing! I'm learning how to eat right, exercise and my lifestyle has adapted accordingly.
We've gotten 6" of snow - so far.... saying we could get up to 10"
