Old Disgruntled Failure Forum



Recommended Posts

Amazing. Ladies, we came to this thread in order to not taint yours and it appears you couldn't help yourselves but to follow and instigate? WHY??

As I stated, unless you consider yourself Old, Disgruntled or a Failure, there is simply no reason for you to feel obligated to post here.

The only thing I'm ashamed of is that I haven't said anything sooner. The list of PMs and private e-mails with people thanking me for finally trying to shut certain people up is growing by the minute. One person and her few friends gets joy and satisfaction from stalking threads to the point of people dropping out of LBT and being afraid to post at all. It's no secret, and I've said it publicly before that innocent people are leaving LBT left and right because of you, Psusan. You hurt and insult while feigning innocence, which nobody buys. Hide behind your sheepish comments and BS emoticons all you want. You’ve invaded and destroyed what was once a beautiful thing. Why does everyone else have to leave LBT? Try some grace. This community has been destroyed.

Anybody else that thinks I need your opinion? Go ahead, reply with something judgmental and become a hypocrite. If you don't like it, go read something else!

Hurt? MY ASS!

Maybe we should re-read the rules about directly insulting people Lisa. You are being SUPER ugly to Susan... if you want to say this stuff to her, you should PM her.

Ok so you are their leader? This is like a wolf pack. One needs help and so they call the leader to come shut people up? You are soo wrong and you know it.

Stalking? Wow. Is this not Free Speech? Do we not have the right here? Give me a break.

What this sounds like is someone is being very paranoid here.

Alex, Penni, please lock the thread. We tried to remove ourselves from the disruption but were provoked over and over. It's plain to see.

You guys can have it.

Leatha what a bunch of bologna. You are the worst one of them all, pretty much starting the whole "Troll" thing. Go love yourself for that one and lock that up in the brain too.

Can't run from this one Delarla and Leatha......... it's not locked up yet so you can't just say something and run away, hoping the moderator will lock it up so you have the last word. That's too easy. Just stand here and realize that you were wrong to begin with. It's time for confession.

Thank you Telly. I'll take that under consideration. Is there anything else you'd like to share with me?

I think that the "moderators" seem to have favorites. It appears that Lisa (DeLarla) and Sue (Geezer) and a few others have the "ear" of the "moderators".

This site has become really UGLY and NO FUN to post on. It is full of personal attacks and some really disgusting OT threads too (in my opinion.

It has become full of negative people who have hidden agendas that are negative to successfully banded individuals who may only be a few months out or a few years out.

This forum is also not the place for doctor's facilitators or Bariatric surgeons who don't even believe in this surgery. It is so unprofessional for these persons to post here.

People should also realize that NOTHING is PRIVATE that is posted on the internet and keep that in mind.

Obviously, there are many issues that should be addressed by a trained psychotherapist in that doctor's office and not in a forum like this. Psychothrophic drugs are not topics of discussion either or should medical advice be solicited or given as Sandy RN used to do on many sites.

I am so disgusted with the tone of this site and its negative vibes cannot be helpful to anyone. It has become a FREAK show (in my opinion).

If what I have said angers anyone, it should, because many people who are banded want to share their successes and failures with others who have had this surgery. I don't think that they signed up for the "soap opera" atmosphere that has been exhibited here lately.

Moderators, please do you job and get your heads out of the sand. The Sunshine Sisters post was trying to do what I am trying to say as I re-read the original post.

I hope that what I have to say will be thoughtfully digested before venomous comments appear.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
