Again, it was a joke.

I do have a question for you, though. Why do you think it should be free? Not trying to be a smartass, but someone has to pay for the site, the bandwidth not to mention all the time that goes into running a site like this. Someone is paying for it, why not the users?

That said, if I was going to pay, which I am not, I have a list of improvements I'd like to see! Where did Alex go?

He's probably busy beating his head against a wall, wondering how the simple mention of Premium Membership could get so blown out of proportion.

Would you feel the same way if mark zuckerberg did that with fb? Improvements are needed but I think for support you should not need to be offered a free or paid subscription it should be free. Just my opinion.

i agree with you. like i said, i really would pay for this site if it were reasonable, especially if they added some helpful/super cool features.

Yup. I'm a business owner. Things cost money. My business pays my mortgage. If I give it away for free, the bank isn't going to be happy.

If I don't feel there is value in a service, I walk away. Do I love the support? Of course. Do I :NEED: it? It's nice, but my choices that led me to be a fattie certainly shouldn't cost this site owner a dime. We haven't even met yet!

Facebook is a very different business model with a much broader audience. It makes billions off of games & advertisement. Not to mention all of your information that is sold by Facebook. I'd really hate to see this turn into anything that remotely resembles Facebook.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
