Stay away from the band!!

I am 19 months post op. It hurts like heck I paid cash for my surgery with absolutely no support from the drs. I paid for an american surgery instead of going to mexico I want it removed they are not even telling me if they will and how much more they are going to charge for it. Does anyone know where I can get this done? I would prefer to go to mexico as I have already spent more money than I should have. I am down 13lbs in 19 months 325 to 312 as of this morning Please help if I can keep one person from making the mistake I made please let me know I will gladly give you all details. If you must do it at least go to mexico and save 10 grand.

a troll is someone who comes on here just to diss the band...there's been quite a few of them lately.

I may not fully understand the definition myself. Maybe I shouldn't have used it, but just seems to fit here.

My uneducated definition of a troll would be someone who posts negatively about the band, and is very vague. You notice that we are all still talking about this, but the original poster aparently is no longer interested. Just seems fishy.

If this is legit, my deepest apologies. But without further info, I would have to say TROLL.

The poster has been very busy on the other post. She/he still will not give any information and is being nasty now. Oh well...

Ok, where is the person posting this thread, something sounds very wrong, even with me not having any fills, Ive lost weight. Its part of a diet you follow, and exercise routine. You have to work with the band. This isnt a quick fix. So, I agree, possibly someone just posted something to speak negative things about something they probably dont have. Cause if this were a true thread, they would be active in this thread. Uggh anyway. :biggrin:

Hi, sorry you are not happy with the band. Unfortunately there will be people who will not be happy with their band, so it does not offend me. I thank God that I was able to get it and I am doing well with it, but if someone else isn't, I do not condemn them.

You have to assume that if someone is very vague, posts one time then does not return they are most definately a troll. Not sure what it accomplishes. Perhaps a need for attention, even if it's negative. Like a misbehaved child that dosen't get enough love from their parents. They act out sometimes in a negative way just so someone will acknolwlege them. It's actually quite sad.

I am going to unsubscribe from this thread. I encourage you all to do the same. After all, we are giving this troll what they want. OUr responses. So, see ya!

Dont give in to others, there are still great people on here that help others. Dont let them win and leave!!! Its all about opinions here really, and advice... we will always have pranksters.
