Um....Aren't ALL our bras comfy and....grEy? <_<

None of mine are comfy or grEy. :) It's easier to continually torture hubby when I wear pretty lingerie. :lol: I'm the most spoiled woman on the planet. :D Wear black, lacy uncomfortable undergarmets and get a man who will spend his life trying to make you happy. :PB)

It's so funny bra fittings is the subject on the table (Peter, Ryan, and Tom must be having a god time :lol: ), I have been thinking about getting one myself........they say we all are wearing incorrect sizes :huh:

Thanks everyone for your well wishes :wub: When I get angioedema in my throat and mouth and such it's an anaphylactic type allergic reaction, if that helps you not have to google :lol:

Sarah, how are the pod children today?!?!

The English Project is looking for examples of 'Kitchen table lingo' ......(words you make up and use frequently)

Some examples:

Clackers - testicles

Bobbicles - breasts

Cauliflower heads - elderly ladies

Having a McS*** - entering a fast food restaurant with no intention of buying food - just using the loo

McS*** with lies - telling staff you'll buy food afterwards

...and finally

Testiculating - waving your arms around and talking b@#$%$#% :lol:

What words could we submit?? :lol:

Open Original Shared Link

Nikki, this is hilarious!!!!!!

Sarah!!! Did you not notice the Bobb-icles....why not just BOOB-cicle??

Let's see, Sillyville could contribute all kinds a words, HANUS as Emily mentioned, what about wackl? Edna and Sven of course.......I'm drawing a blank on the others :blink:

Easy- the 'end' result of a glutening.

I was thinking about doing a bra fitting too, wierd coincidence you all were talking about it. Alex is right- I have no shame at this point. Stranger playing with my boobs? Pshaw, no big deal! Try having a camera up your butt! Unfortunately for me, I'm of the small percentage that doesn't get the amnesia effect of those drugs. I remember everything..... I'll take a bra fitting, thanks. The nursing staff found it humorous though.

:lol: JNBunnie, what's a little bra fitting after all that!

None of mine are comfy or grEy. :) It's easier to continually torture hubby when I wear pretty lingerie. :lol: I'm the most spoiled woman on the planet. :D Wear black, lacy uncomfortable undergarmets and get a man who will spend his life trying to make you happy. :PB)

Taking down notes over here...

Sarah, how are the pod children today?!?!

A little better today... I've decided to nix all TV for a while, except Veggie Tales. :rolleyes: I'm no Bible Thumper, (apologize in advance for any offense, again) but Veggie Tales is always about morals and behaving, so... good stuff in my book right now.

Morning Sillies...didn't realize I never posted this morning, I was attempting and then I got sidetracked. So not much going on. Work Work Work like usual, only one more day until I am FL bound. I am soo scared to fly again, it has been 10 yrs....

What time is the Silly Summit? Depending on time depends on me being able to attend or not. Later in the afternoon will work best. Work has got meetings stacked that week since most of us will be away on vacations the next month. This week and next there is a lot of conferences we will be travelings too.

Bye Sillies! Tis lunch and I am Phamised!

I have to agree with JNBunnie and Alez, btw. Having a camera up the butt has to be way worse than a bra fitting.

I am certain that there are very few things worse than this.... <_< Never had the pleasure, but I'm still certain. The hose down the throat was not great, either. Yep, a boob/bra assessment is a walk in the park, and apparently these brassiere consultants (at least, this is how the huge woman at Sears was designated) really do know their stuff - - training and everything... . .How the boob should sit in the cup, which way they should be pointing, how high up one's chest cavity they should perch... . .quite a science, really.... . . :rolleyes::lol:

Got a better strategy: Regularly wear NO undergarments. Going Commando is astonishingly effective in creating a man who constantly thinks, "Whoa. I can imagine what's under those clothes.....what can I do for her next?".... . . :rolleyes::lol:

This approach also eliminates the ripping off of said undergarments (let's face it - - they're just in the way) and the possible stretching/tearing thereof. :lol:

It's so funny bra fittings is the subject on the table (Peter, Ryan, and Tom must be having a god time),

Ah!! Yes... .. I'll bet they are indeed having a "God!!!" time....... :rolleyes::P:lol:

Ah, Veggie Tales!!!

I took care of my niece for about the first 4 years of her life and I had one Veggie Tales movie, Queen Esther. We watched and watched and watched and watched it over and over and over again........I could recite the thing by heart :lol: but it was such a cute story, and you are right all about knowing right from wrong and being good ;)

Hope the messages sink in with the pod children :lol:

Yeah, I like Veggie Tales more than I thought I would. Cute stories, good morals, and not overly preachy! Why the characters are talking vegetables though.... I have not been able to figure that one out. :huh: Used to terrify Ezra when he was younger. :lol: He likes them now, though.

I must comment on comparing a bra fitting to an endoscopy or (Gawd) a colonoscopy!! :o The fitting is nothing--a mere walk in the park compared to those.....and as Sarah pointed out, you get to go shopping after (or before, if you want).....we all know what happens before a colonoscopy :o:lol:

Wear black, lacy uncomfortable undergarmets . . .

Are comfort & ...uhhh ....torture-worthiness truly entirely mutually exclusive??

Or do they cost 5x as much to get some comfort w/ the shwing! potential?? :unsure::P

We watched and watched and watched and watched it over and over and over again........

Hello my dear sweet Psillies!

Just popping in to say hello. I had another 2 rough days with my reaction, it traveled from my throat to my tongue, not fun at all :( ..........don't have much silly-ness in me.

I'm too far behind to go back but I noticed poop and boobs and Howie Mandell have been some of the topics of conversation, typical Sillyville stuff :lol:

Julie- I'm with you- I am a weepy, whiny, depressed psilly (mood swings/panic attcks- lots o fun) :( :(

Thought I'd at least TRY to get my psilly on :D

All this talk of bras- I must share. I have bras that I ABSOLUTELY love. For those of us not, ahem, evenly aligned (I wish both boobs were same size as right boob). I think they are maidenform and they make 1/2 sizes so you can get an AB (as in almost a B) or an AC (no not air conditioner although having one in your bras in the summer might be quite comfy.....

But then guys would, uhm, know when the turkey was done :P :P

Oh...Uncle Ray's got a phunny:

The Lie Detector

John was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmick.

His wife Marsha had long ago given up trying to get him to change.

One day John came home with another one of his unusual purchases. It was a

robot that John claimed was actually a lie detector.

It was about 5:30 that afternoon when Tommy, their 11 year old son, returned

home from school. Tommy was over 2 hours late.

"Where have you been? Why are you over 2 hours late getting home?" asked

John.

"Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit project," said

Tommy.

The robot then walked around the table and slapped Tommy, knocking him

completely out of his chair.

"Son," said John, "this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you

really were after school."

"We went to Bobby's house and watched a movie." said Tommy.

"What did you watch?" asked Marsha.

"The Ten Commandments." answered Tommy.

The robot went around to Tommy and once again slapped him, knocking him off

his chair once more.

With his lip quivering, Tommy got up, sat down and said, "I am sorry I lied.

We really watched a tape called Sex Queen."

"I am ashamed of you son," said John. "When I was your age, I never lied to

my parents."

The robot then walked around to John and delivered a whack that nearly

knocked him out of his chair.

Marsha doubled over in laughter, almost in tears and said, "Boy, did you

ever ask for that one! You can't be too mad with Tommy. After all, he is

your son!"

With that the robot immediately walked around to Marsha and knocked her out

of her chair.

yeah I wonder if they'll take me back .. .

:lol:

I've been pondering......

Why are there not Briefs Consultants? Perhaps the vast majority of men are walking about with ill-fitting underwear, and should have access to professional fitting opportunities. Males could be measured, assessed....... . ..

Dunno what kind of market there'd be.......

Guess it would depend on what the consultants look like...... <_<:lol:

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area.

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
