What am I missing? Why are ppl leaving?



Recommended Posts

BigPaul, I am talking about the topic of the thread. Not your discussion that you have brought to the thread. Others are still chiming in on why they think people are leaving and how that makes them feel. No one is discussing your issue of a hijacker anymore. That is what has been requested to be taken to PM.

One is a broad discussion, with no finger pointing, and an expression of viewpoints. the other is a problem with a particular LBTer that should remain between you and that LBTer.

I think what Paul means is - if y'all are refering to Paul and I's discussion, it was resolved - as noted by us both saying we were done. Dunno why people continue to comment on it, but it seems kinda fruitless.

I am commenting on his Hijacker situation and his issue with a particular LBTer. Not on your discussion. Sorry if I wasn't more clear Jill. I do try to be, but fail sometimes. :)

I just have to say that I m really happy to see that most of the peoplewho said thatthey were leaving are still here or have come back. Even people who left a while ago are returning. People I used to read posts of when I was still a lurker. Its good to see LBT is not in the state it was last week. Welcome back all!!

:) :clap2: :( :clap2: :( :clap2: :D :clap2:

I find it interesting that in the very thread discussing that the board is becoming argumentative, had become argumentative.

LOL (I know it's resolved, which I am glad of...I just had to point out the irony):biggrin1:

It just makes me wonder how we are supposed to see the world make peace with each other if we can't even get it together on a forum board.

I guess Im confused. Who -are- all of these people we keep saying are leaving? I only know of one who has. More people arrive everyday, some from long ago are returning. Someone said that there are fewer posts, but I'm overwhelmed by all of the posts. There's even an entire thread about not being able to keep up with all of ths posts now.

This thread confuses me. I know a couple of people were going to leave, but they got their issues resolved and are here and active. Why is this thread still going? Am -I- missing something?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
