Pet Peeves
I have my final pre-surgery nutritionist appointment on Wednesday and my paperwork is being submitted to Aetna after my final pre-surgery consult with the surgeon on January 6th.
I have been reading these boards almost religiously since September to get an idea of what to expect. Surprisingly, it seems that many of the people that been banded have more questions than I do.
I've put together a list of pet peeves I have on this site. If one or more of them sounds like you and you are offended; frankly, I don't care. Save your breath. :tt1:
1. The following 3 questions are asked all of the time and there should be a canned response:
Q1: I've had my band for a while. Why I am not losing weight?
Q2: Will I lose weight after I get fills?
Q3: How long after I get banded will I start losing weight?
2. This is the latest I have been seeing and I just want to strangle the posters: "I'm afraid I will have loose skin."
3. Another favorite: "I was recently banded and can still eat as much as I want."
4. "I cheated on pre-surgery diet"
5. Women replying in the men's forum.
I better quit before I get in trouble
O.K., one more and perhaps the most minor of them all; we do not "loose" weight. We may have loose skin after losing weight but we do not "loose" weight.
