Oh, and Misfortune, I'm sorry to have diverted from the original post but I have a hard time not commenting when I read or hear derogatory personal statements made by an individual about others...especially when that individual makes such a strong statement against others making the same type comments. I'll not reply any longer, because I feel like I've made my point. And I'm still having a giggle or two....

Actually Aimee..thefirst part of yourpost--the part withmy quotations-is theONLY part that made any sense in jibberish..now go back and get your crayons and coloring book and try again....

jboy, you're just being rude. Don't assume you have the corner on brain cells because of your profession.

Oh, and the space bar is the long bar below the lowest row of keys, in case you couldn't find it.

Wow really I come here to learn wannabelean you posted that at 1:11am and by 2 am you have a different attitude toward her problem!!!! We people come here to learn about the band but from the different tones to your posts someone is lying and it is unfair for those of us loooking for the truth!!!!!! And then you said something about people posting in the middle of the night?????? Unbelieveable

That is why these boards cannot be taken seriously when researching a doctor!!!!

I am not saying misfortune is not telling the truth but wow wannabe you have just shot holes in her boat big time!!!!

What to believe what to believe??????????

Cant this be a place for us to do research without so much BS????????:angry

Turn off your conspiracy theory warning bells. There's nothing weird going on here.

hootiebelle, wannabelean for some reason assumed I was Misfortune; I know not why. But she posted personal information about me, my family, my business, my location, etc. And because of that, I asked her to delete/edit her post. She did, but now you've reposted it. Would you please edit yours too? I'd really appreciate it. There's nothing weird going on here except that a member jumped to a very odd and wholly incorrect conclusion that I, a poster/responder in a random thread, was the author of that thread.

Thank you, hootiebelle.

For the record, for anyone else who take a flying leap to an unfounded conclusion, I am gadgetlady, not Misfortune. I was banded in the US in February of 2005. I don't know Misfortune and I have no vested interest in her story (although I do believe her).

wannabelean and I PM'd many times around our surgery date and because of those PM's we got to know each other. She had some personal information about me that she posted to this thread, along with a wild accusation that I was the same person as Misfortune. I asked her to delete her post, but of course neither of us could figure out how to do that. So she edited it and her apology to me, and I edited my post asking her to delete the post.

Then hootiebelle reposted the original post which she had received via email. I asked her to edit hers (at least edit out my personal info) as well, which she did.

There are no "holes in Misfortune's boat" due to this random, unfounded, incomprehensible theory about me.

Misfortune, I am truly sorry about your experiences and I apologize that what's going on here has detracted from your original posts.

CAN THIS PLEASE STOP NOW??? No more conspiracy theorists! Sheesh! Talk about pack mentality . . .

Well, jboy, for the record, what I had to hide is obviously available to all now. What I have to hide is: I run a gondola business, I live in Orange County, and my father is a doctor. Not that this isn't information you could have gleaned from reading all of my posts throughout the board, but it was quite weird to have them all posted in one place. And the reason it was weird is . . .

drum roll please . . .

I don't know who the hell YOU are and I didn't want to have that information out there for YOU to see. I don't like you, I don't trust you, and I don't know whether or not you're vindictive. So there you go!

Now stop the MUD!

For the record, this is the PM I sent to wannabelean asking her to delete her post:

Please delete your post

I responded to your post confusing me and Misfortune, but I would like you to delete or edit it. I'm sure someone could get all of that information about me (gondola business, father is a doctor, etc.) by looking through all of my postings, but to have it all in one place makes me a little nervous. jboy seems vindictive and I just don't want him to . . . I don't know. It just feels weird. Would you please delete your post?

Also, I don't know where you got the impression that Misfortune and I are the same person. But we're not. I have no idea who she is and whether her story is true or not.

Thank you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
