Okay, my Rant: People who don't use any punctuation in their posts.



Recommended Posts

LOL - great thread! I've thought this SO many times, and I'm to the point where I don't even bother with the run on sentences, or the grammatically ignorant posts. I'm always glad to give support, but if it's too much work to decipher the question or comment, I'm gone :blink:

When we're typing a lot of thoughts & info on these sites, certainly, we're going to slip on a word here & there. But there are a couple of posters in particular, that I wonder if their keyboard didn't come equipped with a period, or if when they press the period, it comes out as a comma. Boggles the mind......

Nobody came here to be judge! Let people write however they can, they just need a place to get their feelings out while dealing with new experiences, or isn't this one a support group?

If I can easily tell what someone is saying, I'm not too harsh on punctuation.... even as a spelling bee coach and judge i can say some spell well and some just cant. And some of us just love run on sentences

Yes, this is a supportive and helpful group. However, please note that this forum is entitled, "LBT Rants and Raves *** Off-Topic DEBATE AREA ***"

People are going to be RANTING not being supporting.

This is the point ... I have no clue as to what you're trying to say.

I can't help someone, or commiserate, if I don't understand what one is saying (writing).

OK' date=' I've always had this one pet peeve. It's not loosing weight, it's losing weight. It's not loose weight, it's lose weight. Loose means something is not attached. OK, I'm done.[/quote']

I always remember the lose / loose by thinking of the word BOOBS & the 'oo' makes the eww sound LOL

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
