The internet is infested with tiny minded, decorum devoid, psuedo intellectuals whose main interest is to bask in the illusionary light of their self deluded power at the expense of anyone but their own loathsome sub-humanness.

Lotta jerks.

It makes me sad how mean people can be hidden behind their computers....so sad.

People that have never had a weight problem /food addiction can't understand what it's like to fight a never ending battle with yourself :(

I actually saw a box to check on my nut intake form for previous diets tried & they had jaw wiring as a diet plan.

Wtf?!?!

Jaw wiring as weight loss while it works is not a viable option.

allons-y

People sometimes say things just to get a reaction like yours. Life is too short - don't waste your time on people like that.

Comments like that are so hurtful. I hope my children will be kind human beings. I always tell them to think of other's feelings before saying something that can hurt people. There's just no more respect out there Sad, but true. I think its great that Chris Christy took action & he doesn't need to answer to anyone regarding his lap band or weight loss.

We have a local, "after the late news" show called the Edge. They try to be hip and have a couple of young DJ' types hosting. They post a lot questions on FB during the day and then talk about it and the responses. Today this is what they posted

"Would you vote for someone who had to resort to surgery to lose weight? Is there a connection between personal control and professional conduct?"

I unliked their page......

While reading these comments it occured to me why and who taught these people to be the way they are. Their parents and peers. I dont ever think us overweight people will ever be accepted in society. It took decades for people of color, gays and lesbians and even women to be finally treated equal. As for us I pray in my lifetime that maybe just maybe we will be accepted.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
