I think I'm as about as fair and impartial (some would say TOO impartial) about the LapBanding as anyone.

But there is this absolute witch in the OH chat room RIGHT NOW downing the band, she started with "OMG, is that FAILURE still on the market?"

Yes, we know how I hate the "F" word - Failure. :mad:

She's has now just said it's never worked, saying that the only reason it's still done is doctors stealing money. :cry

I've down clear, concise, backed-with-fact responses to her crap - but her argument is, that's why there aren't any Banders in the chat room. They're not successful so they stay away.

So please ANY banders - jump into the main OH chat room and show some numbers.

Let's prove that we are successful, and we're not going anywhere.

See ya over there, LBT folks.

At ease, troops.

I think she's finally been shut up for good.:mad: She just left the room when no one would back her Anti-LapBand crap up. But man, I hear it all the time in there! :phanvan

So I do wish more LapBanders popped in the Obesity Help Chat Room more often. Now whenever newbies ask LapBand questions instead of giving them horror stories (usually untrue) or telling them that it doesn't work for anyone (definitely untrue) - I've at least got the 'regulars' trained to at least direct them to the LapBand board or they give them my e-mail.

No one there? That must be the "LapBand" chat room or something.

In fact, there are about 35 people signed in to the Main Chat room now. The link is different for me cuz I'm an OH member, but here's the link I usually use to get there.

You don't have to be an ObesityHelp member, nor do you need any password.

I would think the amazing progress you've had is proof positive that success can be achieved with the band.

Ah ha! The LapBanders have arrived.

She's gone now, but it sure is nice having other Bandsters in the chat room.

[ Oh, Congrats on the upcoming Tummy Tuck, AAA. Best thing I've done for myself, next to the band itself. ]

That was fun but I will need more practice, it goes pretty darn fast and I got lost a lot. But I will visit there more often....thanks for the invite.

Wow, since this happened...

I'm seeing more Bandsters in the (very busy, very lively) OH Chat Room now. KEEP COMING IN, it's wonderful to have new, veteran or even PreOp Bandsters come visit in there.

Love to see more of you.

      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! 😞
