So ever since my husband started going to these classes, he's like a nutritionalist or whatever.

If I drink a blue moon, he's like, any drink with citrus in it like that, eats your stomach lining, I learned it in my class.

If I drink a Baileys, its, if you drink anything like iced tea now after that, it'll curdle in your stomach.

Then last nite I was eating salsa (I eat like a galloon a week) he was like, that is eating your stomach lining.

I was like , SO WHAT ALREADY! What happens if you lose your stomach lining?

And he said you get a colostomy bag!!!

So pretty much were all gonna get one someday huh?

they make really cute clutches and cozies that you can put your colostomy bag in - it just looks like you're carrying a purse with a tube coming out of it, it's no big deal.

30 year old guy i met just got one because of colon cancer.

colon cancer at 30?? wtf?


the only place he could find supplies yesterday twenty bags were $200

well as a society the crap we eat
and how long it sits in our gut
because we don't eat enough fiber
plays a roll.

but i think some have a genetic link.

Anx said:

SHUT

UP
!

I'd wear that.

Anx said:

I SO will always have the cutest accessories. Even when I'm 90 and carrying colostomy bags and hooked up to IVs.

Anx said:

I've been drinking like a galloon of Sierra Mist,thats not good. My cozie would be purple I bet.

ThreadCula said:

Sierra MIST?????


How bout iced tea?

I drink a BOAT of that shit a day.

ThreadCula said:

you could carry a sierra mist drip in one hand and your colostocozie in the other hand!

Anx said:

SureThing said:

Yeah I started drinking sierra mist here lately & lemonade
I dont drink tea.

SureThing said:

probably more apt to hook you up to a dialysis machine
after you develop diabetes

SureThing said:

Heaven!

ThreadCula said:

Oh Lemonade RULES!

emm said:

Diabetes seriously has to SUCK.

I'd hate it.

SureThing said:

i love lemonade if it's made right. i hate it when it's syrupy. when it's not, it's perfect.

Diet Pepsi is killing me. I can feel it.

JustErin said:

Really?

What does it feel like? Dying?

Are you in much pain Erin?

SureThing said:

Yes.

It's ruining my stomach and yes, I am sometimes in pain with all my stomach issues.

But I am addicted, so what can I do.

Anx said:

me too.
If i get juice from a carton/bottle I always put water in it.

JustErin said:

Your addicted to DIET PEPSI!?!?!?!



Don't try crack Erin.

emm said:

Its amazing the amount of people
who have some form of cancer in thier digestive track.
A friend of my friends, husband died at 28 from colon cancer.
Its what we eat, breath, and what get absorbed into are skin, like cleaners.

SureThing said:

Trust me.

I wouldn't dare...or any illegal drug to be honest.

Don't you ever complain about my skin tag threads ever again!

SureThing said:

No. There are many diseases or conditions that affect the colon where a colostomy is sometimes required:Hirschsprung (congenital), ulcerative colitis, infammatory bowel/Crohn's, colorectal cancer, bowel obstruction. Although definitive causes are elusive, genetics, environmental factors, immune system are suspect. With Crohn's disease smoking is linked.
WebMD is a good source for info.
Colorectal cancer is the only condition, of those I've mentioned, where diet may have an influence.
