....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.

It's only normal if you add a half cup of nails to it...

Hey travelgirl...the nails came up on dwlz.com. I know it's translated to weight watchers points but i think it comes out to like 2 points per half cup...

I was just banded last week but I was able to eat an entire footlong Subway sandwich today ... is this normal?? :biggrin1:

Funny you should say that....one of my doc's patients came in 3 weeks post op and admitted to eat a 6 inch sibway sub.

During his info seminars my surgeon has part patients come up and share their story. No shit, this is what a bandster shared with us the night I attended:

I really had to debate which surgery to get, but I'm really glad I went with the band. I can have cake, cookies and ice cream whenever I want them, and I know I wouldn't have been able to do that with the bypass.

When asked how much weight she had lost:

I'm down nearly 30 lbs so far, I will be a year out next month. I wish I had lost more weight. I think I just need to focus on protein first - eat the tuna BEFORE the ice cream, instead of AFTER.

paSt, not part

During his info seminars my surgeon has past patients come up and share their story. No shit, this is what a bandster shared with us the night I attended: ...

Your doc isn't bucking for a lot of new business, eh?

My doc is doing his first ever seminar in AZ in a few weeks and he asked me to attend. Now I know what not to say.

Actually, I don't want to talk. I have decided I am going as an observer only.

if you are being serious -

OMGosh - thanks for that . . . . I cannot tell you how much time I have spent trying to figure out what the heck IMHO meant !!! Now I know. I love you. :bounce:

I'm glad this thread is here....

Faith: Maybe you should keep a tirade saved in a Word file and everytime someone posts something like that, you can copy and paste it into the thread?

Faith she has been on fire today.

Arrrrgghhh!!!! The 1/4 cup person strikes again:

im at the point where i have just put her on my ignore list. i feel bad doing it simply cause i cant refute her "advice", but i just cant stand her verbal vomit.

I think there is something wrong with my port site. Yesterday it began oozing green pus. Today it is completely black and I think my intestines are leaking out. Has anyone else had this problem? Should I see my surgeon?

Nah... it's normal. It's stinky but totally normal. My doc said so when my own intestines fell out. It speeds weight loss.

Oh good! Glad to hear I am not the only one. :whoo: I figured that since this was the norm then pooping out my navel was common practice as well.:guess

verbal vomit.

What a great name for a punk band.

you mean all this time I could have been eating more than 3 tablespoons of food???? I thought this was standard, since she puts it on EVERY thread out there! :faint:
