LOL - all of these are so funny and so true!!

You know you are in trouble when you go in for your 2 year appointment and you are at goal and being successful and the NUT still wants you to stop the protein drinks - even when that is what is helping you to stay on plan!! Maybe year 3 will be the break through to prove it is ok to do protein drinks.....

You know you are in trouble when the NP tells you to use Flintstones and worries that your D level is toxic at 87.

Hey - Tazz stole mine! Well, my D was 93... but still!

I have a pic DH took on the boat last summer when I was sunning in a bikini. Every single rib stuck out. I looked like a skeleton draped on skin-tone chiffon. I'm printing it out and taking it to my 2 year follow up in a couple weeks to prove to the NP that I CANNOT lose 20 more pounds and be "fine." I need to be where I am - ribs still show, I'm still skinny, but I'm not deathly! (OTOH, she may be if she again figures out the BMI and tells me that 114 is a "good" weight for me!)

lol Toxic is guessed to be around 700 or so....they think, but aren't entirely sure. Why is it these guys can't see with their own eyes? First Linda's NUT wanting her to get off of protein shakes and yours saying lose 20 more pounds.

:::shrugs::: She's a control freak - and, in her defense, she HAS to be, given the practice she's coordinating. However, I tend to trust the ASMBS and you guys more than her for some of the fine tuning. Their plan is generally good, but not one-size-fits-all, and the BMI is more junk science than reality for those who have been obese or who are serious athletes.

I'm just glad I have you guys to back me up!

With medical care like this, it's a wonder any of us survive our first 2 years post-op.
