starladustangel 270 Posted April 8, 2021 None here but left the bariatric pal Facebook group as it was full of toxic people who loved to enable each other eating like crap and call anyone who said differently the "food police" while inevitably they would post a few months later whining about stalls or regain. People were cheering people on eating cake at a few weeks post op because "it's a soft food". There were posts like that constantly. Maybe it's changed since I left but that's not a great support group for making better food choices. 1 TipTop in TX reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus when I hear about cases like, this I worry that some insurance policies are going to stop covering it because too many people are unsuccessful because they don't follow the rules. It'll end up screwing those of us who are serious about it up, too, if that happens... 4 blackcatsandbaddecisions, TipTop in TX, starladustangel and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I usually agree with you but this rubs me the wrongest way possible. Nobody polices patients who've had coronary bypass surgery or angioplasty if they take their statins, engage in moderate exercise and really have stopped smoking. Nobody polices diabetes patients if they changed their eating habits and threatens to stop covering insulin treatment if they don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember Lipstick...... she hated me .... good riddance b*tches..... I think she may have gotten kicked off that one too. I do miss my friend Dub. I do still talk to a lot of people that dont come her anymore. Most all have gained all their weight back. Two that were my inspirations..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I should have said too many people fail because they revert to their former eating habits. 1 BayougirlMrsS reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
