I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD CONDONE DRINKING ALCOHOL, ESPECIALLY SHOTS, AND PARTYING!!! Why did you get this surgery in the first place? I know I got it so I could never ever ever drink again or party or have fun of any kind and I am sticking to it with no problems!!!! I am hateful and mean just like I'm supposed to be when I'm STARVING and you should be too!!!

LOL!!!!!!!! Just kidding!!! I couldn't resist!!!! :P

There are so many confrontational people on this website!! I am on another website like this and have never seen so many people arguing with eachother. I am all about having different opinions and discussing them, but my goodness! People on here get so personal and really go at eachother. Just not understanding why exactly. I know I have had maybe one or two disagreements with people on here, but it was never personal and I still enjoy reading what they have to say. I am by no means an angel, I will say that - but this is on a whole different level! We should be here to support eachother, not put eachother down.

OMG seriously-- It really seems like this site is full of angry meanies lately!

As long as any board remains anonymous there will always be posters that will post what could be termed hateful or rude posts. That's the nature of the beast. It is something called "deindividuation". Social norms get cast aside behind the anonymity of the screen name. Ever scream at someone when you are behind the wheel of your car and they cut you off or commit some other act of ass clownery? Its the same principle. It happens to any type of board where you can hide your true identity. Go over to My Fitness Pal and mention that you have had WLS and see how long it is before your screen starts to melt. There's always going to be turds floating in the punchbowl. Doesn't mean much, really. We aren't related to each other and if you get butthurt by what someone posts on some of these boards, what does that really say? People here are passionate one way or the other, or they wouldn't participate in the community. I'd personally rather see a lively board full of flavor and debate, even it gets a little personal, rather than a bland, everyone has the same opinion and everyone high fives each other at the end of the day. The entertainment factor alone makes it worthwhile to visit this nuthouse.

just my two cents, but lot of what we read, we read with our own inflection and I think many forget this. the person typing could be trying to calmly and rationally layout a case for their frustration, and then other users read it with yelling and screaming in mind. That being said, I know this does not apply to all cases. There is one user in this thread...maybe two...that I feel attack and belittle others for posting an opinion. I dare not call them out, because I am afraid that I am misreading their words with my own inflection, AAAAAAAND they have also made many valuable contributions to the whole forum in general.(My problem is that I do not read sarcasm as well as hearing it. :/ ) I chose to ignore what I believe to be uncalled for, and try to take from their post what I can. I appreciate these two more than I want to be mother hen to them.

Another factor johnlatte hit the nail on the head! Anonymity brings courage to say what you will, and your computer screen is the wall that protects you. So yes, I have seen users say some outrageous and nasty things on this website because of that reason.

putting soap box back under the couch now. thank you for letting me speak.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
