Awe come on Wendell, let us all see it. We have heard what a "sweetheart" she is. I'm sure it's very nice and supportive......

And to be honest, I don't let it hold me back. I just remember it. I mean, you wouldn't forget that a particular dog bit you, would you? I mean, you might still love the dog and pet it every day, but you don't look at it the same way anymore. You don't give it the chance to bite you again.

The story that I always remember is the little girl on a hike up a mountain. It began snowing, and she spotted a snake. It was freezing to death and pleaded for her to pick it up and warm it. When the little girl did, the snake bit her. As she lay dying, the snake slithered away, she called after it saying:

"Why? Why did you do this to me?"

The snake replied:

"You knew what I was when you picked me up!"

Wow, Chelle! You are really trying to analyze Lauren's psyche....but cannot offer any insight into the behavior of "good friend's" . The friendships made through years of OH must not offer much insight but you sure are good with strangers!

:scared:Bravo!:eek:

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.

Even better, over here the threads are organized into catagories so that a person can read only the threads that interest them, such as "Newbies" & "Fills", (My favorites).

Over there everything is all jumbled onto one thread, so all the worthless crap gets mixed in.

I don't like having to read all the drivel about non-band-related topics, which absolutely dominate that board.

And *IF* I feel like wallowing in the mud, I can come to RNR. :eek:

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.

Frankly, I don't see why any intelligent person would spend time over there.

Also, it is an "enter at your own risk" kinda thing....you are not forced to go through and read it to get to other info. You can avoid this forum entirely when you don't want to get in the mud. That is what I love about it.

Exactly. Sort of like how I had some time just now, and wallowed through 11 pages of this dreck (In the German sense).

I see it's the same ol' same ol'.

Denial, denial, denial.

But hey you got to hear about Nancy's plans for the weekend. That should bring back fond old memories of OH posting.

      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! 😞
