Where's the "support"?

I must be reading the wrong threads, because I don't see the meanness or bitchiness.

Unless..

oh...

maybe it's me.

Never mind.

I was just told I'm mean by someone I was trying to help. *sigh*

Every day I see posts here that, were I so inclined, could give me concussions just from slapping my forehead.

Just saw one where a newbie (6 weeks post-op?) was proud of using Wheat Thins to scoop up party dip.

The amount of typing I'd need to do to explain why, from my perspective, Wheat Thins don't make sense as part of a WLS patient's menu 6 weeks out or 6 months out or even ever IMHO would frustrate me, piss off the newbie, and generate three new threads on why vets are so mean to newbies.

Here's how I see it: Everyone won't be successful at WLS long-term. I think the successful ones figure it out one way or another. And those who aren't successful will f**k it up no matter what others do to try and save them.

I used warm slightly under baked toll house coookies to scoop up chocolate fudge icing during my soft food stage. There were no nuts in the Cookies so that was ok, right?

No! Of course not!! What were you thinking?!?

Everyone knows it's dangerous to eat under baked cookie dough! You want salmonella or something?

Holy crapola, folks. I dropped out of this topic a couple three day ago and. Just noticed that the message count had surpassed 50, so I say to myself, "Sweetie, take a look just to keep abreast." And what do I find? A passel of Amazons, each minus a breast, prepared for battle. This thread is a blood bath, much of it greatly amusing, but cause for chagrin all the same.

At least I can say that I never did any of this. I just applied the Cookies and icing directly to my hips. Go for the gusto! -- that's my mantra.

Yes, just as long as you don't drink your melted ice cream liquid 15 minutes before or 30 minutes after.

Whoa, hold the phone. If it's melted, it isn't ice cream. It counts as Soup.

(I just saw your screen name and, lo!, light. Yours may be first rebus I've seen since I was a wee thing.)

Silly boy. Ice cream makes me dump.

I did hold off on the margaritas for about 15 minutes, though.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
