Jesus, @FluffyChix, what is your problem?

Are you an immediate post-op patient? No, you are not. You had your surgery more than six months ago, so you are not relevant to my point.

Did I say "150 pounds"? No, I did not. I said 165, because at 165 pounds or more, one needs 60+ grams of Protein, by these researchers' estimate. And the vast majority of immediate post-op patients weigh significantly more than 165 pounds.

You want to talk about basic skills? Try learning to read.

Also, maybe developing a modicum of chill. I was merely pointing out that the "you'll scare the immediate post-ops" is--I was nicer than this, but I'll be more real now--just concern trolling. You did not need to jump down my throat or insult my f---ing math skills

I believe perhaps you are forgetting to divide the weight in pounds by 2.2lbs/kg in order to get to weight expressed in kilograms. Don't worry, I forgot to do that all the time in 5th grade. :D

165lbs DIVIDED by 2.2lbs/kg = 165/2.2 = 75kg

75kg X 0.8g/kg = 60g of Protein recommended.

It would also be nice if Fluffy and MIZ would stop abusing the laughing smilie button. Yes, we all know now that they hate both creek's and my posts and therefore try to ridicule them. Please stop this infantile behavior.

WTAF? You just told me my math was right, by telling me my math was wrong? You are just spoiling for a fight, and I'm done feeding your troll ass.

Where did I say your math was right? Your math is wrong.

You forgot to divide by 2.2lbs/kg to express the weight in kg.

I don't mind people who disagree with something I've posted and say why they do. That's civil disagreement, and it's always welcome in my threads. And even encouraged. I love a good debate, particularly when people can provide some links to reputable research.

Adults can disagree without being backbiting and taking everything that's said in general....as if it were aimed at them personally. Which is isn't.

Adults should be able to walk away when they don't care for a topic or don't find it relevant.

Adults should be able to keep debating civilly, or lose interest and move on peacefully.

Last I checked, the only person with the right to patrol and control the content of the board...is the board's owner.

That whole....Live and let live thing? Some folks on this board need to work that.

This seems more like a pissing contest rather than a true regard for other peoples health. It wreaks of, "I know more than you". It's basically the equivalent of "I know you are but what am I" but with fancier vocabulary. Not to name names or anything.

      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.
