WOW!!!  Yay TIM!!!  It will pick up speed and catch you off guard quickly now, pal!  If you don't have a belt, DON'T WAIT to get one!  More than one post-op has dropped trow in the month following their surgery!

As for the gas?  it's my favorite source of laughter, frankly.  Never USED to be, but when it becomes such a prominant (SP?) thing throughout the course of your day, you might as WELL laugh!  My hubby thinks you lose weight when you fart.  I'd have thought the gas LIFTED a person a bit, but.... maybe you should test his theory???

Some friendly terms from somone who's been there / done that...

*CROP DUSTING* When farting, you walk really fast around the office so the smell is not in your area and everyone else gets a whiff, but doesn't know where it came from. Be careful when you do this.  Do not stop until the full fart has been expelled.  Walk an extra 30 feet to make sure the smell has left your pants.

*ESCAPEE* A fart that slips out while taking a pee or forcing a poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of embarrassment. If you release an escapee, do not acknowledge it.  Pretend it did not happen.  If you are a man and are standing next to the farter in the urinal, pretend you did not hear it. No one likes an escapee.  It is uncomfortable for all involved.  Making a joke or laughing makes both parties feel uneasy.





  Imperfect does not = unsuccessful

Welcome home & to the losers bench.
Glad to have you on board.
Remember, it can take up to three months for the pouch to heal, treat it with tender loving care and it will treat you good in return.
