"know It Alls"

[Butterthebean 8,146]

Well, no. (Are you going to ask me to find youtube videos and studies to back it up????)

So then, I have a poll I would like to open up.

Is it better to be stung on the rod or the reel?

On the general or the colonals?

On the twig or the berries?

Tell me! I need to know!

It completely depends on who's doing the stinging.

.....and I say that humbly as an elite level stingee.

Non-answer. chicken.

Oh!! The chicken or the eggs??

I like to keep my options open.

Well...one GOOD thing I have to say positive that I've gotten out of this entire silly argument...I am down 4 pounds since Sunday..... .......

Wait.....so 8 years a bandster and you're still not at goal? No wonder you're cranky.

I was at My goal weight within 18 months post op.......Remember I am going on 9 years.....you know the time MOST Bypass and other surgical types have gained it all back...LOL

I kept my weight down for 7 solid years with hardly NO gain....I am not cranky...just spunky...

I gained 30 pounds back last year when I developed a hiatal hernia...and had to saline reduced....there is no shame in my game....

I've lost 20 of that....I am VERY HAPPY where I am right now...so I will any additional weight loss I can get....

Don't brag too much...because what I hear the Sleeve can/and do stretch back out double its capacity in a few years....you are not that far out yet...so don't go bragging....

And oh..you can click on my profile and click on Gallery to check my pics to see if I got to my goal weight or not....

Remember once you get to goal, does not mean you will stay there with no small weight gain...

There you go again thinking you know something about the sleeve. You may be an elite level bandster but you know nothing about the sleeve. Quit acting like you do unless you're gonna post some more YouTube videos.

I think you have some kind of a chip on your shoulder and something to prove.. While some of your advice may be valid.. nobody likes it shoved down our throats.. I kind of remember your response to our posting about Obamacare.. You and several others called us racists . Nothing diverse or open minded about that response... I thought you were going to block all of who disagreed with your theory? I think you like the controversey... some people are natural s h --t stirrers.. I don't mind getting advice or information but when I say I am not doing that or this because my Dr. advises against it I don't want somebody who thinks they know better than my Surgeon to get pissy about it.. And I live in a very small town as well.. one post office and a blinking light.. I love the Country life and I would venture to say I am pretty darn smart.. I own my own business and have been successful in life . I have many years of experience in life and business and I am smart enough to know when someone is trying to degrade me... so please do us all a favor and block us.. I want to get back to normal posts from normal people.. people who are looking for positive reinforcement not brow beat..By the way being rude to other Weight Loss people such as sleeve folks is a great way to win friends... lol

Na NA, I had promised myself I wouldn't post, but girl you really have to get some feedback on your postings from someone that you respect - show it to your sister or a good friend. Someone who loves you enough to tell you the tough truth will be a great friend to you. You control your own destiny, and right now it's looking like one in which you set yourself up for a series of unpleasant retorts with bombastic posts, overuse of caps and very suspect anatomical discussions. You have a lot to offer but your delivery is waaaaay off.

Ps: I live in a very, very big city.... so I must know a thing or 2... ; )

Nana,

I noticed you are on your second band? When you are finished with that one there is a great sub forum we have on the sleeve site.

I think there might be some serious erosion issues going on..

Hello...

No thank you, I don't care to go the Sleeve route, if I develop another hernia in 7 years, my surgeon can just unbuckle this band and fix it. The older 4cc band that I had could not unbuckle...so I had to get my band replaced....

As long as my band keep my weight down, without horrible complications I will keep it or replace it....

Regarding the Sleeve what are YOUR plans when it stretches back out in the next 1-3 years? Do you have a PLAN B?

So.....you can redirect that Band revision link to someone else that's interested....Okay?

Just... wow. Nana I can not believe this thread was even started, let alone stooped to a personal level of insults right from the very first post.

I'm not even dignifying the "small town" crack with a remark. It's just too ignorant and stupid to even waste a key stroke on.

As for the whole "know it all" thing...
