"It seems that other forum members believe we're brainwashed morons"

Who? Not me. Not most people I talk to.

And you are the one who seems angry. I'm just puzzled, frankly.

2MuchFun: You think some of the sleeved people sound sanctimonious (personally, I think tone is hard to read!), but you came back on that thread with this:

"Don't wander around other forums taking cheap shots to make yourself feel better that you believe you made the right choice for you."

I was on my own forum fluffy. Wise up.

I'm tired of looking at naked dancing videos on YouTube. I'd rather make my own. Laura get over here and hold the camera.

I'm not! Post more!!!

Oh is anyone else having problems with the app freezing up tonight when you try to post??

Yes. I thought I lost a post and timed out on the site response. I had to close my app (iPad) and restart to clear it.

Can we stop this now and be adults. I unsubscribed from the band forum because sleevers were not welcome by the banders. Maybe others need to follow suit. Children play better together than some us are currently. This sniping back and forth is getting unnecessarily nasty.

I am expressing my opinion and mean no ill will against any specific poster and will make no further comments on whose is bigger and better.

Thank you for answering :)

If it doesn't resolve tonight I will bring it up to the big A.

Well before this thread gets locked for bashing, let me enable you with a pic of me at goal weight and a 1950s recipe I made for Preservation Action Council's Throwback Potluck. It's called a frosted loaf sandwich. It's an entire loaf of white bread, split lengthwise into layers and filled with ham salad, chicken salad, and pimento cheese spread. It's frosted with cream cheese mixed with Mayonnaise. When you slice it it looks like ribbons.

And by the way that's a vintage dress, size 10. In today's vanity sizing, I wear a 6.

If you REALLY wanted to enable me, you'd post a pic of the cut up sandwich. :)

You look so cute and so skinny in your vintage dress!

Yes it was good. Certainly not weight loss friendly because of the white bread and cream cheese but fun for a treat.

Soo funny! I have laughed my head off reading these posts! As I've said before, Lap Band is no longer offered in NZ. Got nothing to do with insurance - everything is self pay here. Too many complications, very poor results. Maybe it works for some people, but clearly not enough or it would still be offered here. RNY is still offered, but it is less common now, apparently. My surgeon said that the VSG is becoming the gold standard wls in the world. For now. Who knows what they will come up with next? Scientists are working on a Ghrelin vaccine. Perhaps wls will no longer be needed. In 50 years time, people will say, "OMG, can you imagine, people used to have 75% of their stomach amputated."

I tried to find proof that the lap band is no longer offered in NZ because I wanted to post it on another thread and I can't find any reference to it. The following website is still up and you would think they would take it down, wouldn't you? http://www.lapband.co.nz/

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
