  1. It is supposed to be active through 1/25. If you can get into it it's still open. If I hear anything about it closing I'll let you guys know.
  2. I guess people can always lie about stuff, but in this case I don't know why they would or would want to. Hopefully not too many people would want to mess it up by supplying bogus answers, but they probably have statisticians involved to factor that in. Just my guess. If participants are all WLS patients it would be to the benefit of everyone to provide honest answers. Something like this has to go through a bunch of approvals to even make it this far. If there wasn't the potential for it to benefit patients in some way, it most likely would not have been approved. That's a good point though. I wonder if/how they factor that in.
  3. Posting for those who would like to participate in research on weight loss surgery. I found this on another site and I thought it would be good if they got some input from here as well. A research study is being conducted through the department of Psychology and Counseling of Georgian Court University, Lakewood, NJ, on quality of life (QOL) outcomes in long-term post-operative bariatric surgery patients. If you have been living with an adjustable gastric band (such as LAP Band or Realize Band, RNY gastric bypass, gastric sleeve or duodenal switch for at least two years, please take the survey athttps://www.surveymo...quality-of-life . If your current surgery was a revision, you're also welcome to participate as long as your revision was at least two years ago. Your responses will be treated with strict confidentiality, and you will have an opportunity to sign up to receive a copy of the results after you have completed the survey. If you would like more information about the study, you may email the chairperson of the department of Psychology and Counseling, Susan E. O. Field, Ph. D., at fields@georgian.edu or by phone at (732) 987-2643. If you have any questions or concerns regarding confidentiality, ethics, or the nature of this study, please contact the chairperson of the Institutional Research Review Board, Cheryl Resnick-Cortes, D.S.W., at resnickc@georgian.edu or by phone at (732) 987-2366. Thank you in advance for your participation!

    This thread is going to be sooo inappropriate!

    No but we can once again say catty and obsessed. Gee why don't you block me here like you did on OH and like you typically do to everyone who disagress with any of your verbose diatribes over there. Just like Sandy does.

    This thread is going to be sooo inappropriate!

    I think the links that were posted by the OP were from a DS board, so it sure looks like someone hunted them down. I'm all for debate but this is just catty and making fun of people who are trying to fight obesity. Not cool.

    Suzanne Somers

    She talked a little bit about being on three's company, I guess that stuff she knew about. I hate to see someone with little to no medical knowledge suggesting stuff to people that is crap. Her latest cure all appears to be testosterone cream. She claims that it will prevent BPH (bening prostatic hyperplasia). Wonder if she would like to comment on what it does for androgen dependent prostate cancer.

    Suzanne Somers

    She is on Larry King and just said that testosterone is made in the prostate and went on to say that it prevents enlargement of the prostate. What a freaking loon.......

    Congratulate me. NOT.

    Vinegar sounds too whimpy, what you need is a big heapin' helpin' of ketoconazole! Just kidding, I hope it clears up fast!

    I like Shrike all by itself. There is something cool about names with just one syllable.
