Pet Peeve



Recommended Posts

..... Our VST version is the humblebragger who talks about being unable to stop losing weight and oh how worried they are! Does anyone know how I can go about cramming in some calories! Then, come to find out, the person is living off of like, a few ounces of Protein a day while exercising so duh of course they are still losing weight, and when they get sound advice from posters they have an answer for how that can't work for them. that's when you realize they were just looking for pats and admiration, not help. I've been on VST for 3 years now and I have seen this more than a few times. Who knows, if I ever get skinny maybe I will indulge in a little of it myself but in the mean time, *eye roll*.

Sounds eerily familiar.

I always tell those people to consult their Nut...

That's true you do...I've never once seen you give anyone any advice that they ought to be getting from their medical professionals. :P

My biggest pet peeve is tripping over the beaten dead horse that SOMEONE didn't clean up when the were done.

And when aforementioned dead horse beater stirs the pot with the same stick used beating the horse...

Sigh...

MY biggest pet peeve on VST' date=' apart from people spelling lose incorrectly (one o, ONE!!) are the humblebraggers. Urgh, it's like jr high bathroom all over again, where a thin girl loudly proclaims herself to be fat and then waits to hear the chorus of "no you're not, you are SO PRETTY!" Our VST version is the humblebragger who talks about being unable to stop losing weight and oh how worried they are! Does anyone know how I can go about cramming in some calories! Then, come to find out, the person is living off of like, a few ounces of Protein a day while exercising so duh of course they are still losing weight, and when they get sound advice from posters they have an answer for how that can't work for them. that's when you realize they were just looking for pats and admiration, not help.

Yeah this. I'm on another forum with a lot of RnY folks, and they can genuinely have problems to stop losing. I've never seen a bona fide case of actual unstoppable weight loss with the sleeve (barring medical complications of course). So yeah...I get suckered every now and then still by someone claiming this via VSG, lol at your post, GT :-)

Sometimes people need to unleash a little, I get that. These types of post often leave me asking myself what they are looking for though, and I think that is a question that should be asked before anyone posts anything. "What am I looking for". If the answer is "nothing, I just want to rant" or "just looking for support" I think you should put your energy into something else.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
