I am really sick and tired of being lectured on this site...people assuming just because I was fat, that I had an unhealthy relationship with food. Not everyone was like this! Pre op, I never ate to excess because when I was full I would stop eating. (I was on a low calorie lifestyle change and stuck with it for years...I stuck with it so I wouldn't gain weight) Fat people get this stereotype from those on the outside all the time (that we eat a lot)and I finally thought this was a place of non judgement. I am aware many on this site got the way they are because they ate a lot but not everyone. Same goes with exercising: people are lecturing that you have to make sure you exercise daily or else and half of these holier than now lectures haven't seen the inside of a gym until this year. Which isnt a problem because they have chosen to make a change but do not lecture others when you dont know their history. Finally...being lectured about my post op drinks. Everyone is given a list by their drs and are not supposed to stray away from that list. I was told 2oz 3x per day of boost, ensure, atkins, slim fast, etc. I am constantly being told these are not healthy...and being read the nutrition facts..um I have it right in front of me and can read but honestly if my dr says to drink it I will.

Y'all are off topic. Just sayin.

was there a topic? I thought it was a rant.

Oops.

Oh god I am pink!

Oh and the plain Fage 2% with I packet of stevia and frozen blueberries yummy yum yum

Hmmm....Not sure why its not working for you

=-O

Blow it out your horn, unicorn!

She looks like she got poked in the knickers. And I don't mean the kind of poking one does on pur... Never mind.

Sorry! Um...don't lecture!

Unless you want too because it is an open forum and we really can't stop you.

Laura-ven, you are really a sharp, funny lady...I think I lol at many posts each day from you (that's not to say it is all "fluff", I tend to nod my head in agreements many times a day as well) that's me, a laughing bobble-head doll

Because when I tried less than 1200 calories and going to the gym I was constantly hungry. I did lose 8lbs in a week when i was at 1000 calories per day but i didnt like being hungry since i eat when im hungry...So I figured this would be my tool to not be hungry with less and when I get to the maintenance stage I will be back at my 1200 (1400 when I went out) maintaining lifestyle and all will be well.

Janice05/23 I am sorry to hear you we're lectured. One of my very first posts on here, someone jumped to a conclusion when they knew nothing about me and felt the need to lecture me.... It s not fun. I did think some of your symptoms though sounded very similar to mine and I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 22 after being a very active teenager and aging horrible amts of weight very very quickly. And when I eat very little and exercise my tail off I can lose weight.....but I am hungry anyway....good luck on your journey and I will be on the sleeved side soon!

Say goodbye...lip dye :-)

so...the knickers weren't knotted?

Well!

Y'all are off topic. Just sayin.

LOL.. I was going to say this about 4 pages back, but I couldnt get through all the pages fast enough

OP.. Just take it with a grain of salt and understand this is a public forum and you will ALWAYS get responses you don't like to hear and endless feedback regardless if what you ask for it. It's going to happen. I think someone mentioned that perhaps doing your own blog would fit your stipulations and likings a bit better

I know it will not fix my metabolism but why should it have to...I was only gaining weight at 1400/1600 and more and I will never be eating that much again.

A few months down the road say around 4th or 5th month you will be hungry and eating quite a bit more.

Girl ain't that the truth! Unless your that skinny Ms.antiBand.

Its not just the quantity of food that gets someone an intake of too many calories. A lot of slider foods will getcha up there in flash.
