enjoying the conversation you’re having with yourself? bet that’s a regular thing for you, huh?

*cough* he ain't everybody's President by a long shot. Australian living in Ireland here. Don't want to start an international incident or anything but over here he's considered an absolute buffoon.

Anything's better than talking to you!

I was sleeved in Mexico and, while my surgeon did provide consultation, information and support, some info was conflicting or incomplete. For that, Google is a wonderful thing. ObesityCoverage.com has a wealth of information. When I need perspective from others, I come here. Everyone's experience is sooooo different, no doctor's office can replace those personal stories.

Yes I agree the personal stories are the most informative.

This isn't the place for political rants. Save the seething hate for your therapy sessions or Facebook page.

Dunno about anyone else, but it isn't so much hate as bemusement and pity for the ordinary peeps - same sort of emotions as towards Kim Jong Un, Berlusconi, Ferdinand Marcos, Gaddafi, Nixon, Mugabe etc. Mind you, Oz has Scott Morrison currently at the helm, heaven help the Aussies.

I truly don't care what anyone's take on politics is when I'm on this site. Stifle the urge to delude yourself into thinking your opinion on the prez matters here. Let's try to be adults and stay on-topic.

Absolutely no offense intended, but I could not possibly care less about anyone's point of view on American politics (or any other nation's politics) when I visit this site. I will enthusiastically entertain all input on bariatric issues till the cows come home.

Anything of a divisive and completely off-topic nature, no thank you. We don't want or need the mud-slinging here.

I'm sorry, but I feel that bringing up your obvious dislike for the president in this forum is just opportunistic. This , in the end is about personal responsibility. Refraining from the behavior that for them there in the first place. TBH, right after surgery, I could have eaten the steering wheel off my car. I refrained. I have stuck to the diet, cheated a couple of times, buy have lost almost 40 lbs in 5 weeks. For those who can't make the changes, save your money and stay home.

Our President is doing an awesome job of keeping his promises which is why he got elected! That has nothing to do with bariatric surgery but anyone knows the post op diet and if that person ate cinnabons right out of surgery shame on them and the people that brought them. This procedure doesn't work if you can't even close your pie hole out of surgery. I really feel sorry for this person because they lack total intelligence or total will power and they will surely fail because this is a life changing surgery. But, you have to be willing to do without some of your favorite things and make healthier things your new favorites. Don't go through all of this in vain and not learn anything! This is your chance to get it right! Don't squander your second chance!

In all seriousness:

@joannniemiec @nomorefattypatty The main question is what was the intent in RESURRECTING a YEAR OLD post that began this railing against/arguing/fighting/defending/supporting the comment about the president and/or the president himself, when that post was ALREADY DEAD/NOT COMMENTED ON THEN/FROM SOMEONE WHO HADN'T POSTED SINCE OCTOBER; then jumping to the conclusion that @Beachladee3 was laughing at the president comment back in September (as opposed to any other part of the post); then following up your comments by stating this discussion has no place on this site...when you brought it up again and continue to post about it?!?! I am flummoxed.

Should have let sleeping dogs lie, instead of necroposting! Let it die.
