OT: Stupid Thread!

I presume it was bad of me to reply to his "Have you lost weight" with a mystified gaze round me while I answered "Yeah, and I've been looking for it everywhere

What should I take to the hospital?
Just had surgery, what can I eat?
Uh, didn't you read the materials your surgeon gave you or paid attention in your pre-op education? Jeeze.
I can see folks asking for suggestions to expand their food choices, but to not know anything about what to eat kind of disgusts me.

Any post that references acronyms, pet names and other nonsense terms about one's breasts, menstrual cycle and surgically revised anatomy.  Are we 10???  Nope, we are adults with a fully functioning vocabulary.  Seriously.  My pouch does not have a name.  It took me forever to figure what the hell "TOM" was.  I hate to be harsh, but those things make me cringe... 

I don't know what "TOM" is.  I'm going to go look it up ...

WE could post it on Wikipedia...

Oh my gosh.  I seriously did not know.  Thank you!  You should post it on Wikipedia!  It should be there, right?  It would be cool that you contributed, especially if it is something that is missing, which it clearly is.

I will have to think about that...My internet legacy partially defined by an acronym for the menstrual cycle...Hmmm.

Oh, that made me laugh out loud!  Thank you.  You're right; I didn't think of it like that!

"Im exactly 5 weeks out can I eat a filet-o-fish?" "Or I had RNY last week, can I get pregnant now?"

My all time favorite is, "I'm 5 weeks out and I have lost 100 pounds,  I'm a slow loser"
