People must've been really mean to you for you to be so unnecessarily rude.

I absolutely understand. Did you get your work situation figured out? Talk to your doctor? I hope you get to do whats best for you and heal swiftly! I'm rooting for you.

Because you can get surgery to loose weight but it's no guarantee that it will fix a jerk.

mean?

when one makes a new thread on this forum, people take time out of their day to read your story. i have read what she wrote 3 times in order to try to decipher what she is trying to say. i shouldn't have to do that. no one should. in my opinion, THAT is what's rude. and it's everywhere on this website.

people should pretend as if they received a basic education and use proper english so we, as a culture and society, can communicate with one another more easily.

won't help you in life to become skinny if you still sound stupid.

No one asks for you to take your time out of the day to read their story. In fact, feel free to block me so that we can stop any issue now or in the future.

The degree to which one should or shouldn't have to put up with something on this forum is not a finite answer. For instance, with regards to basic education, we learned early on to capitalize the first word of sentences. It sends the message that another phrase is beginning and when proper English was omitted from your response, your communication became cumbersome. However, my basic education has also taught me context so you don't have to worry as I understood you as I also understood the OP. :)

nice try, tootsie. but it's generally accepted stylistic practice for informal online purposes to not capitalize the first letter of every sentence.

and FYI - you should look up the real reason the first letter of every sentence became capitalized in literature many centuries ago. hint: it has nothing to do with "sending a message that another phrase is beginning". (but i am very impressed at your ability to pull official-sounding bullsh*t out of your ass, really)

How adorable, a pissing contest over bragging rights for "likes". Hey, you gotta take 'em where you can get 'em. lol

And I think we all forgot the purpose behind this thread? OP was looking for encouragement and help, can we get back to that please?

      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! 😞
