Your title says "72" pounds, when your note says "22". Just an observation.

You have GOT to be kidding!!! You don't need ANY more motivation after losing 72 lbs. in 3 months!

Congratulations, that must feel wonderful....but is that healthy? 72 lbs in 3 months is about 6 lbs per week.....

Thanks for editing your ticker or something.

Personally, I find that (I'll just say) "most extraordinary"--72 pounds in 3 months; and a woman...? But, if so, hey. Kudos.

I didn't say you edited it because I asked you to; I simply thanked you for doing so. In fact, I didn't ask you to do anything; I simply made an observation.

And I said "kudos" to you, that means "congratulations; good for you."

The nastiness of people online is so unnecessary and misplaced. We live in sad times.

Dr-Patient, for what it's worth, I think most of us followed you. Luckily, it's been my experience that posts and responses like the OP's are scarce on here. Someone seems to have forgotten we are all here to get help and support each other. I'm going to do my best to ignore the nastiness at this point.

Congrats and good job. I've been losing very quickly as well (at 3 months I was down 75 lbs, now at almost 4 months out I am down 90). Keep up the good work.

I agree. I don't live online, and this--BariatricPal--is the only board I am on because I do feel that most people here are here to support each other. I call those who seemingly overreact for no reason "rhetorical agitators": they bark for no reason, and also react before simply reading and understanding what was written. Like you, I just ignore that energy. Don't have time :-).

Thank you for your post. :-)

And I was just saying nicely. No1 was being nasty. But the way it came off to me as if u had a problem with my post. So then I replied. If I was being nasty I would have been rude insted of saying kindly move on to the next post. Alot of misinterpretation happen through texting, and comments ect.
