:speechles Sorry. Maybe I spoke out of turn.
Hey, there is no "out of turn" on a message board, just like there is no "private conversation" on a thread (had to break that to someone yesterday, so sad). :huytsao Speak away, we're listening! :biggrin1:

Oh well, too late now anyway. I might as well say what I think. OH has become boring as shit since the "old timers" have ran everyone off. They are coming over here to keep from falling asleep! They know we have a place where drama, bitching, and just plain ole "pissing in each other's coffee" is allowed. Let's face it, it is fun. That is why we are here. When I read over at OH, it is all I can do to keep from falling asleep. Yep, there is some good info, but there is here too. Plus, we have this R&R forum where we can raise hell if we want without fear of posts being removed, being moderated to death, etc.

Yep, that's what I thought, too.

I think some posts can be passive aggressive as well so as not to make there intent so obvious to everyone on the board. Or maybe it just appears that way to me. I remember a thread where Ron was particularly obnoxious with one of his Protein Shake rants and of course comments on Wendells weight loss. A few days after the thread there was a post by Chelle thanking Ron for his wonderful contributions to the board.

Moderated! That's for damn sure!

I'm on forever moderation I think! HA! I'm going to have to come up with a new ID. Oh wait... I already did. It's another obvious one but I'm not announcing it this time. Each time anyone finds out who I am (not that it's tough to figure out since I make it bloody obvious) I am reported. So I'm not announcing this time. People will figure it out.

But I really don't go over there often. Just when someone sends me a link to something amusing Sandy writes.

And you can actually FIND the good info here. OH's format made me want to slam my head into a wall.

Can someone tell me why I'm getting these replies in my mailbox when I didn't start the thread?

Just click on the link in the email that says unsubscribe. If you respond a few times in a thread sometimes you get subscribed to it.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
