What's your funny WLS story????

I was on another WLS forum and we were chatting about funny things that has happen to us since surgery that are weight loss related.  I'm going to share mines.

I was singing in the choir and my slip fell off.  I just kicked it off and kept on singing until what happen next.  The lady next to me laugh so hard her false teeth fell out.  Of course, I was no good the whole day. lol

I do have one I posted quite awhile ago and pasted here.  I was about 4 1/2 months out and learning how post op bodily functions take on a life of their own.

First in the cardio room this morning.  In the home stretch with the intensity of the bike turned way up.  Five minutes left.  Gritting my teeth, straining, straining... because damn I have to pee sooooo bad!  I debating should I risk getting wet and stinking up the place or finishing my routine. 

I made it through dry, but now the challenge is getting to the potty in time.  I'm unable to sprint to the ladies or keep my knees together as I hobbled.  I was a sight to behold.  Depends is what I needed today.  Damned all this water we drink!

Three times my body betrayed me this morning.  First I stunk up the place on the eliptical.  Every time the machine adjusted its level, my cheeks separated and let flow hurricane force winds.

Last on this stretching aparatus, I held the bar and leaned back, compressing my belly, and stretching my back and shoulders...  and trying to hold in the pooh that compressing my belly seems to have stimulated. 

Depends on me???  I'm off to Walgreens. 

Any other embarrasing gym moments out there?

LOL.........

  I almost spi****er on my screen!  Too funny. 

OK, here's mine.     I was almost 6 months post op.

The Not-So-Dainty Side of WLS

I was in the checkout line at the grocery store the other night when I felt a MOST uncomfortable stomach rumble. I knew what was coming… some SBD gas. I've heard it's fairly common for post-ops. I just couldn't see myself being in pain until I got outside. I quickly glanced around before I let it go, but unfortunately I didn't see everybody. Right behind me was this little kid hanging onto the front of the family grocery cart pulling it along. As I walked away from the noxious cloud, I heard this sweet little voice say, "Daddy, you stink like a turd."

I never looked back.

 Hilarious.....something very similar happened to me! my 9 year old son was with me in the store and I just had to release or implode, well there was a kid I didnt see at the end of the shopping isle, and my release was alot louder than even I had expected....the kid at the end of the Isle said "wow that was amazing"...and my son just about DIED of embarrasement....he shreiked "MOM!!!! SERIOUSLY, HOW HUMILIATING!" I scurried out of the isle and had to apologize to my kid,....
I scared myself on this one.

  Too funny!   I became proficient in the release-and-walk-away technique. 

I've noticed though that for some reason, post WLS farts do not dissipate easily.   They just hang there.  

                                              

There was this one time I had to let one go in a store and immediately afterward I went to another aisle.  Then I saw a man enter the aisle that I'd just vacated.  In a way it was funny, but then again I felt bad because I could tell when he walked into it.  He frowned.  His whole demeanor changed.  It was like he hit a wall.
