I Really Hate Those Interdry Ads!



Recommended Posts

I know how the forum works with advertisement that make it available for us free of charge BUT I REALLY hate those INTERDRY ads, they are, well, GROSS! I know it's a problem for some people but seeing that illustration of that bib like thing tucked into that red nasty ulcerated pendulous stomach just makes me want to barf.

I have not and WILL NOT click on those ads. I'd rather be poked in the eye with a sharp stick.

Thought the same think, Rootman.

I must admit though, this ad is much more distracting. That elbow is a subliminal along with the open jeans. :o:D

They gotta make bucks, though, I don't begrudge them that. This forum has meant a great deal to many people.

Yeah I've run adblock stuff before but I also realize that sites like this have to have SOME sort of funding, we just can't TAKE and not GIVE something - even if it's simply being subjected to ads.

As much as I don't like them I know the guys running this site are not getting rich and deserve whatever income they can derive on a free to sue site.

I just wanted to vent and rant and hopefully the advertiser will realize they are alienating the very people they are hoping to contact with their nasty ads. They won't know unless they get feedback - and hopefully this will somehow come to their attention - at least without me clicking on the pic of that nasty belly.

I don't run adblock because I am fascinated at how the ads pick up on the very thing I've been searching for on the web. Obviously someone is monitoring my searches and the ads show up accordingly.

Oh, yeah, I don't mean I've been searching for belly pads. Really,... I haven't. <_<

Yuck! I've never seen the ad you're describing but it sounds offensive!

I see ads for weird video games and rock bands.

It seems so strange to me to hear you talk about ads, I am really glad I see no ads on here. I know it would really annoy me. I don't even know where they would go. My whole screen is filled up with vertical sleeve talk.

I am so glad I use firefox!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
