You know intent is usually lost on message boards and through typed words.

I don't know what happened B4 and frankly I don't care.

If you need help with question keep firing those questions and you will find the answer.

I'll do my best to help but I'm pretty much new to lap band.

There is great info. here and wonderful people but we're all human and very one has a bad day.

best of luck to you on your journey.

I agree with Shaz. I can't tell you how many fights I've had with people over nasty rude text messages only to find out I totally read them wrong way. It is very easy to misread meaning behind words when you can not hear them. That being said, gg I am so sorry if any one offended you. I think we are all here ultimately to help each other. And I can promise you that you will always get a kind word and response, and usually some bad humor, from me.

Thnx for comments I put this up here cause I received a private message from someone on here being rude!! I do not appreciate that... This person went out of there way to be rude... I don't let anyone's comments bother me because that's just what they are YOUR opinion YOUR comment!!! If you are having a BAD day take care of that... That doesn't give you the right to be mean and just plain rude!! Not trying to rant or argue with anyone just basically saying how I felt!! It is not okay to treat someone with disrespect just cause you are online!! Thnx for everyone's input!!! I got on here to get some of my questions answered.... THAT IS ALL!!!

Keep asking questions and just ignore the rude responses. Eat the meat and throw out the bones. I would not got upset over it. One bad apple would spoil the other helpful people on this forum.

Gg, I didn't realize someone sent you a private message being rude. That is totally uncalled for. Gg, I will try to answer any questions, to the best of my little knowledge. And if you ever want to just vent or chat or need encouragement , I will listen as well. Good luck with everything.

No need to thank me at all. I try to be positive myself. Doesn't always work. Lol. But I try. Life is too short for negativity . And trust me, I've more than had my share this past year. But decided it was time to try and move past it. You got a friend in me.

That you are right about. Sometimes harder to do than say. After a half year of complete craziness and ugliness I realized I needed to just pull myself away from it and start being happy again. Can't say it's fully worked, but it's getting better.

May I offer some advice as a long time forum member who's dealt with my fair share of idiots PM me stupid and rude things?

Just ignore them and move on. They aren't worth your effort or your time.

In the future, don't make like posts like this thread either. I understand you're upset, but by making threads like this you're just throwing gasoline on the fire. It may be negative attention but you're still giving them attention regardless. The better option is no attention whatsoever.

Just my opinion based on my own experience.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
