Have any of you noticed that in your response to something there are now lap-band ads? Why the hell do we need to see those...it's bad enough that they are all over the sides, but now in our responses? What is your opinion on this...should we as users do something about it?

Today is the first time I actually saw one in my posts. This really sucks and definitely makes me think about switching over to another site-I mean seriously who wants ads in their friggen posts ...WTH?!!

Like you said it's bad enough that they are all over the site as it is! Anyone have any other good sites they visit?

The worst is the ad's on the side for donuts, burgers etc. I understand that the site needs advertising revenue but surely it should be able to pick where it comes from. Fast food offers on a banding website is ridiculous.

I don't see the ads since installing an 'ad blocker' some time back.

We're planning to change the way and amount ads are displayed on LBT. Our goal is to knock out all ads on the right side of most pages and cut down on the total amount of ads shown to members. For the next week or two we'll be testing different ad spots. I promise when we are done, you'll be a lot happier with the way content is displayed and ads should be a lot less intrusive and annoying. I apologize for any inconvenience this is causing our members.

Thank you for letting us know what's going on. The ads in the responses are absolutely terrible. It would really caude me to think about permanantly leaving this site. There all WAY too many ads all over this site and they are very intrusive. Thanks again for keeping us in the loop!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
