Thread Killers



Recommended Posts

I personally think everyone's wrong. *laugh*

On a side note though - a discussion can be easily killed by everyone either agreeing to disagree, or agreeing with each other.

Yo Dawg I agree with you 100%!

****HIJACK****

I was just wondering if anybody else ever wondered if obese people had better personalities than non obese people?

Seriously though, I hate hijacked threads.

Another type of thread I just gloss over, have nothing to say (I dont "hate" this, but just dont "get" it).

So and so keeps bringing junk food to work, how unfair, I have to sit next to her and I just want some too. Or my DH keeps eating burgers, its not fair, or the one where someone was at a dinner party and was offended because the host served dessert and offered her some.

I just dont understand that. When I decide to diet or when I decide to eat it comes from within me, what someone else is eating has no bearing at all on my decisions.

Like I said, I dont "hate" that or think people are weak for suffering from it, but I dont ever answer those threads because I just dont really understand the problem therefore have nothing constructive to say.

I hate it when people talk out of both sides of their mouth. Like when they post something, delete it, then post something totally different. Like the song says, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything".

Oh, another thing.....when a person has more than one user ID b/c they don't want other people to know the "real" person inside.

I tend to jump away from a thread when someone starts listing all the food they cheated with simply because it puts it in my mind and I can start WANTING it. I can go for months (years even) not even thinking about something like a somore and then someone will talk eating one and I'll start craving chocolate and marshmallows.

Oh... now you're thinking about that warm, sticky delight too, aren't you????

DL! You are brilliant! Truly brilliant! (and funny too) :cool:

I shall make it my goal to do likewise. Confusion is always a great source of entertainment.

Hello,

I hope you don't get discouraged to share your stories because of one person. The rest of us waiting to get banded really need to hear your success stories to help us realize the possibilities. Sometimes there are down sides to success and we want to hear those as well. Keep us posted!

Thanks for showing us the light at the end of the tunnel is not always a train!

Everyone just shut up.

I'm right. You know it. Deny it all you want but you will end up looking the fool.

I'll get you yet. You and your little dog too.

That is a helpful post! :biggrin1:

Main thing that irks me is when people do ask a question and in the time it would take to just answer it or post a link like you did above, they post a seemingly snarky reply telling them there is a thread with that answer in it so go there, but no link or breakdown of what board it's under. I was here a good week before my browsing around lead me to the abbreviations thread. I have to say some of the snarky replies have made me keep my questions to myself, and I PM those who seem truly happy to help. :cool:

I also agree with the "I'm cheating the band, eating candy and drinking milkshakes so why aren't I losing weight" threads. Just makes my eyes roll. :rolleyes :)

Waiting to see if I've killed this thread.... :guess

      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.
