Let me pay to not see ads



Recommended Posts

Not sure why people are freaking out. I think Alex thinks up these things just to get some slug blood flowin' (and then sits back and has a good laugh) ;)

I never see ads on my computer, i didn't even know there were any on this site! Ask any computer smart person how to make that happen for you, it's not hard, my hubby does it to all our families computers. i'd have to ask him what it's called, but it works great!

I view the site on my iPad and you can't block ads on iOS. I can use the iOS app but it uses too much data and battery, so I would prefer to just use the website.

Website are not free to run. The reason there are ads is to pay for the cost of running them. If you block the ads you take away that revenue and you are a free-loader. I would rather not have the ads but not be a free-loader, so I asked for the ability to pay not to see the ads. It certainly doesn't mean everyone else would have to pay too. I can't believe people are stirring **** up and starting 3-4 other threads about this instead of just asking Alex to clarify what he means. Don't we all have enough drama in our lives?

Not all pc/iPads can block the ads and even those who can don't want to because it messes with other options they prefer to keep. I block ads on my desk top but not on my laptop or iPad for various reasons

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
