It seems I've hit raw nerve with Greensleevie. According to her everyone fails at the bariatric surgery no matter what. And only she knows better because she has experience so all the doctors and nutritionists and all the programs that the hospital has put me through to make sure I do have a successful outcome are full of crap because Greensleevie says so.
So what is the point of going through all this if there is no hope for a successful outcome. According to her I don't have the will to have a good outcome. I MUST FAIL and she says so. Weeee ...here goes a very sad and depressing road to no where. So if she fails or has a hard go of it...than everyone else must follow suit. NO ONE can have a positive experience and have good and healthy life after bariatric surgery. Again what's the point of going through this ???
I am told I'm immature and I protest too much because I'm a "newbie" I don't get to say how I should live my life... I must be a moron.
Any one out there looking for positive feedback or a good role-model or some positive reinforcement look some place else... this is sickening
I have made a conscious decision to be the best and healthiest I can be. Why does that bother people. Too much negative feed back I must say good-bye this is very sad and I won't be a part of it.

Fair enough @MowryRocks. I agree.

I've been silent for a few days...I really don't want this to go any further than it has (this is far too stressful and not good for my HEALING AND HEALTH) ... however...This is a reminder of (below) the very first message Greensleevie sent me. I had never spoken to her before this... the tone in this message is angry...and calling someone IMMATURE is not an insult ? and name calling ??? (BULLY) . I never said I had anything figured out...but I do have a mind and I have done the research to make my own (with the help of the medical staff at the hospital) to make my own decisions. Just because she has crowned herself the queen of bariatric surgery..all hail the queen. No one else is allowed an opinion especially on there own recovery and outlook on health....very sad. Everyone is different and everyone recovers differently. Not to mention I had the bypass not the sleeve that alone will tell you the difference in outcomes.
I have actually been scolded by Alex Brecher ( founder ???) not to mention someone called Outsidematchinside ( another someone of royalty) ???
I thank all those who have supported and been kind to me ...however I am going to delete my account here with Bariatric Pal (the monarchy has put a bad taste in my mouth)
Oh does anyone know how to delete this account (I'm not very tech savvy) ...maybe Mr. Brecher can help me...???
DIRECT QUOTE :::****Yup. I remember thinking I had it all together, too. It's easy when you're not hungry and the weight is falling off effortlessly.
Glad you have this ALL figured out at a whole 2 months post op.
I never understood how people presume to know what the future holds when they have no idea what challenges lie ahead? How immature.
Are we saying you're absolutely going to be one of the almost 50% of people who are going to gain some or all of their weight back? No. We are saying to KEEP that from happening, you need to be aware of the pitfalls to PREVENT it from happening.
You no more know what's going happen 3 years down the road at 3 months post op as I do 6 years down the road at 3.5 years post op. You can at least admit that, right?*****END QUOTE:::

Dude. Really?
You're going to flounce because someone you don't know on an internet forum told you that you may not have all the answers as a newbie?
Don't give it a second thought and just move on. Don't be so thin skinned. It's an internet forum, and not everyone is going to agree. And guess what? That's okay! Most of us here are big boys and girls and we can handle it.

So he can call me out on a status update for all to see, but I'm not allowed to respond?
I never personally attacked him. I was hypothetically pointing out the pitfalls of regain and bariatric surgery. He instantly personally attacks me and insists I said he and everyone else fails at this surgery. I said no such thing. Then he slams me in a status update, but I'm supposed to just let it go while he can continue to talk ****?
I see a double standard here.

HI everyone
there has been some talk about "falling of the wagon" I get that... we are all human. Having said that...I don't know all the different programs all of you went through for pre and post surgeries but mine was a year long and then some with a psychologist and nutritionists and doctors/surgeons and the same post... a five year program.
One thing all of them mentioned is that "this is not magic surgery" you are not going to be able to eat everything and anything you want post surgery. This must be understood!!!!
There will be some foods you ate before you will never eat again. You must understand this !!!!! This is not "get out of jail" for free card.!!!! You will and always have to watch what you eat. Therefore you and only you are responsible for the results of your surgery.
This message was pressed into our heads again and again.

I said no such thing. Re read my posts.
As I said, you protest too much. Almost as if you constantly have to reassure yourself that you're not going to fail. As much as you're going on and on about this, looks like I hit a nerve with you. Look at you. You just can't let it go.
It's actually kind of funny.

Guess Babbs got banned too? That's unfortunate. Things are definitely going to be different around here.
