Leeeeesa! Thinkin' about you. . . hope today is better. :)

Today is better, thanks! I don't think my wackl is up to par, but at least I'm not drowning the keyboard.

I actually, really, seriously want a boob job now. :ph34r: Please give your thoughts.

I have actually thought about this at times. As a rule, I am against them, because they are unnecessary for so many of the women who get them.......and then they usually end up looking so obviously phake. But I wouldn't mind having.......well.........boobs. Nothing too showy........just enough to look normal. Of course, it's a moot point, cuz I'll never have the money for it.

I vote YAY!!! DOOOOO IIIIIITTTTT!!!!!! Then I can live vicariously thru you! :D

That'll be easy-breezy as long as you don't start w/ early afternoon champagne. :ph34r:

<_<

<AHEM>........we've been thru this before..................she is NOT easy!!!! :lol:

Absolutely LOVING all of the Birthday Boob advice!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

But - my mom took one look at me today and reaffirmed - an EYE JOB is what's quite necessary here. :blink:

I can barely see today with such drooping of the upper lids. Might even be covered by insurance......

more on that later!!!!!!

And a happy birthday to our phavourite old, middle-aged hag!

I'm not touching your boobs, Susie. That is, I'm not getting involved in that question.

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: x 50

PeOter--Step away from Soosie's boobs

Suz--if you're an old hag, I'm Methuselah! My honest response to your question.....life is short--you want the new boobs, and have a way to make it happen, then go fer it.

Consider this advice yer birthday present

:wub: thankx Paddeigh! And - you ain't no stinkin' Methusaleh fer god's sake :lol:

Ya get new boobs, Sooozie, and everyone will be wanting to touch 'em . . . .....an inevitable consequence.

Well, ya need to put up a very clear, detailed av of your boobs for us to see exactly what you're wanting to replace . . .. I am certain that what you've got is completely adequate, but perhaps you'll put a pic up and we will all suddenly scream in chorus, "Oh my gawd, Sooooze.....Invest! Invest!!"

You would all agree, don't worry :lol: My sternum is like - - sheetrock? no - harder and louder

If you've got the money . . . whatever makes you happy.

You know you do "owe" Peter some pics . . . he's shown you all kinds of pictures of his . . . equipment.

I DO NOT got the money and - - no pictures for Poeter :lol:

That'll be easy-breezy as long as you don't start w/ early afternoon champagne.

:o what? who? ME? why, I never :lol:

<AHEM>........we've been thru this before..................she is NOT easy!!!! :lol:

*SNACKLE*

:lol:

Sillies - - I will write a very serious treatise on boobs, aging, plastic surgery and having lost my youth and chased away my deep loves during gluten-brained years - - later.

Meanwhile, tomorrow, my boss has knee surgery, so I am pretty much off (work from home in aft) so - Gail is coming over. It's HER birthday as of midnight. No tequila will be consumed but she has demanded screwdrivers.

:unsure:

:lol:

It's been a simple but glorious birfday. I am so blessed to say that I'm back in the same healthy emotional/mental state I enjoyed exactly one year ago.......I was so content. It left me this summer but.......it's back.

Much love to all me sillies and GRATEFUL THANKS for getting me through this year and that wretched

A$$HAT

who nearly - but not quite - destroyed me.

:angry:

Mornin' All!

Bah, not very psilly 'round here. . ... ....there is some Law, I believe it is Harriet's Law, that states the following: When my husband is away in the wintertime, there will be, in the interim, a constant dumping of snow, followed by ice pellets and freezing rain. I was out shovelling five times yesterday (I'd let 5 cm fall, head out, spend 30 minutes shovelling, go back out after the next 5 cm fell, shovel away....), and then I was up at 6:30, out shovelling the 15 cm that fell overnight.

SO! Our first winter storm....and where is the main shoveller??

In Jolly Ol' England. . . . ..... :angry::angry:

Bah.

But it is beeee-oootiful.

And this is great resistance training - - I can feel my trapezius straining as I hack away at the ice, my biceps working, my deltoids actually screaming. . .. .....

Yep. Great workout. :lol::rolleyes:

A happy late birfday to Gail!! No barphs, I DO hope!

Is that why there are now teeth marks in yer sparkly clean wooden blinds??

I agree wif Htawmn . . . I would've guess "chuffed" to have a differnt meaning.

It feels like a huge load has been lifted off my shoulders, I did the decorating, got my cards off, and finished my present shopping. Just have to wrap them and plan the Christmas Eve/Christmas Day menus, but I am way ahead of the game this year......for once (usually I am way behind)....and it's a great feeling.

How is everybody else today?

      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. 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...

      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.
