I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

Posting just to say I really hate people who constantly contradict themselves.

One minute they hate the fact that they have a band and can only drink liquids because their band is so tight you can see the veins in their eyes. The next, they are so proud of having been on liquids and they are such a success!

One minute they boast of being a size 6, the next minute they complain that if they were to lose five more measly pounds they would look like Night of the Living Dead.

Give me a freakin’ break already.

/rant over

LOL....so said these same words over and over again. Give up, somethings just never change! :frown:

LMBA as soon as I read your post, one person came immediately to mind. Then I started digging...and yep I was right. Wow that is scary that we can immediately pick up on the idiocy of posts.

Yeah, im sure you guys know who im talking about, ive seen her posts here and there before.

To her credit there is one thing she is insistently consistent about. The unnecessary need for any type of physical activity to achieve your personal results.

She was in chat the other day when I went in there and she was telling her minion audience how great it was to never have to exercise as long as you stick to a 100% liquid diet – it can work for you too!

I posted that I love to exercise, makes me feel awesome and healthy.

She left.

I wish I could rant & then boast about being a size 6...

Technically you could; what do we know different??? ha

LJM - the notion of purging on a donut and then hurling on the boss was HYSTERICAL!!!

Serial posting, I know...

But holy numbnuts Batman!

PB'ing is a tool, and it's ok to do it several times a day provided it's not a proper vomit?

You have *got* to be kidding, right?

How long till an erosion or slip?

yes ... very much a joke.

Let me go ahead and apologize for being a no-nothing pre-bander(!) but does a PB not hurt the same as a "proper" vomit? Does one not regurg acid like with a vomit? Doesn't sound like a lot of fun either way.

I have never had a PB with stomach acids. When I have puked, yes, then I have had that wonderful half digested - acidic puke taste.

But as it has been explained to me, by a doctor, there is little difference between PB'ing and vomitting for the band. They are as bad as each other. That is why 99.99% of bandsters AVOID PB'ing.

Now that I think of it, it sounds an awful lot like an eating disorder.
