My first official R&R...Bandsters who dont know a damn thing about banding



Recommended Posts

I guess I'd refer you back to post #179, you know... the post you declined to respond.

Some people whine about others helping while the others dig in and help. Which side are you on?

Oh wait, I've read your posts. I know.

I'm on the side of crying in the fetal position. Wait. Is that the wrong side?

Seriously, I didn't see any response to me at all--I saw a sea (a sea) of private conversation that I just wasn't privy to and it went on and on--no matter how far back I clicked. So I just didn't see your post and I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to ignore you.

I've never, ever had 50 PMs at one time ever. And if I did I'd probably pretend I'd died or something. So I have no doubt you are incredibly supportive and informative to many people who enjoy conversing with you.

Carry on.

And yet ANOTHER ID of Christines proving me right once again. :eek:

Got it! They went through a whole lot of trouble just to make themselves look like an ass. :car:

Zitro, who is your doc so I know to steer clear? :)

Yeah, that post took a lot of deception and half truths to write. That one must have taken days worth of research.

One point was that I said "X" price was a good price. To look at the bits that were posted it was inferred I was referring to my own doc. That was a question about a US doc and I said it was a good price.

She's annoyed because I don't know what everyone in Mexico and the US charges? Including my own doc? I don't, my surgery was almost a year ago and prices have changed. But I'm a coordinator because I don't know all the prices of every doc.

Another is about a 14 year old that asked if her insurance would cover surgery. I responded by suggesting she talk to her parents, then research the band, then I responded to her actual question. To read Christine's version it looks like I was pushing a 14 year old into surgery.

Another was something I wrote about Ortiz. The bulk of the post was positive about Ortiz... his stats are great, his patients love him, etc. She forgot to include that part.

One time someone asked opinions on Ortiz, Rumbaut, and another. I wrote that my personal preference was Rumbaut and Ortiz. I didn't even mention the 3rd because he's not the greatest doc in Mexico. I didn't explain that, but that's what I wrote. Then I was accused of being a patient coordinator for the doc I did not suggest.

I could go through that post bit by bit and post the rest of the story but then I'm playing with trolls. Sheesh... I wish she would go back under her rock.

I'm tempted to write everything I know about her doctor.

I'm telling you, ever since I posted a thread on how to research doctors the coordintors are throwing bloody fits. Well, if they aren't doing anything wrong, why not use one of their other many IDs? The IDs they post on their doctor's thread using?

Of course--that comment was meant in good humor--I LIKED that movie! LOL I'd be the Mean Girl who gets walked all over and secretly feels sorry for all the victims. It's a curse, I can't help it.

And I'd wear lots of mascara.

By private I meant--all inside jokes and personal banter. After clicking past like 10 pages I figured the thread had been hijacked and the plane was going down.

Indeed.

In case of a plane crash, one must assume the brace position and pray that anyone comes out alive.

But they weren't inside jokes. Many of us have very publicly been bashed for actually getting off our asses, and working with our bands and losing the weight. That's all out there for the public to consume. Nothing private or inside 'bout that I am afraid.

      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! 😞
