Apparently We All Kvetch The Same Way



Recommended Posts

Still learning my way around the new app I guess it hasn't fully sunk in that we see every type of surgery's posts. I've accidentally opened threads from other forums and I see the same dang arguments going on in those forums as ours! The same rants and fights and kvetching.

I just wasted tons of time reading a thread accusing every one on the board about being snobbish, and the vets thinking they have the answers, newbies who learn to make their own choices even if other day they are not workable in the long run, and I was like, WHO is she talking about??

Wrong forum. Lap band folks.

Sigh. And I thought we were special :P

Having had 2 of the 3 surgeries and at times been on 2 of the 3 boards I can affirm that....same stuff, different day, some of us are just nicer about it! (Err, usually)

A bird just told me we are supposed to have separation on the current threads between the two... So hopefully that will be fixed within the week? Until then? get the popcorn out and start clutching your pearls :P

If that's the case then what was the point in combining everything?

I thought we sleevers couldn't kvetch because of the lack of ghrelin.

Some of us still have our sense of humor...and use it as often as possible to distract ourselves from our sagging skin and thinning hair.

And then it took me 15 minutes to find my own dang thread. Apparently just coz you start it doesn't mean you're subscribed to it

Poor Alex and team. I don't envy them this task. It's gone quite well, considering the scale of things.

Everything will get straightened out, and in the long term will be so much better. Think of the benefits of people just researching weight loss surgery. They can come to one place to learn about all their options available and hear personal experiences from people who have had the different types of surgeries all right here.

Oh no worries! Frankly with all the functionality they had to port over I think it's gone VERY well. They should be proud.

There sure is an uproar, huh? People want it fixed and they want it fixed NOW! I feel sorry for team having to deal with all of this. Usually with any new technology, there will be glitches.

I'm an avid "current thread" reader, so I'm sure I will be constantly posting in the wrong forum, lol!

      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! 😞
