Like most things messageboard, the resident "debate" forum evolves and changes over time. Perhaps it's the political year, and at least part of it is due to the influx of new people (after a year or so of fairly steady "regulars") but it definitely has a different tone than I've seen it have in... oh, 4 years or so.

I was most fond of RnR when it served mostly for mental stimulation. Prior to that, it really wasn't even used all that much. We had good, honest, courteous and smart debates. The occasional feather might get riled, but for the most part it was a good time. Then it took a turn toward the personal side, and for a while became "Rant and Rave about this person or this group." Then it became mostly nonsensical for a while. Then general/personal gripes. I'm sure we'll hit a few more evolutions and then find ourselves full circle.

I think he was just being funny and changing the name to Helen, not that there is a Helen or is there?

I'd be ok with "Susan", if it would make the angry face go away.

What about Sybil? She was that multiple personality person. I think they have a new fancy name for that disorder.

I have lorazapam. It's a central nervous system depressant. That's why it can cause depression. So is Xanax. I had to switch to lorazapam because Xanax made me feel horribly depressed if I took it. Lorazapam will do it too, but I have to take it more than once for it to happen. Xanex has an immediate"I hate the world and everyone in it" feeling when I take it.

LOL! That brought back a funny memory. Me and my mom nicknamed my sister "Sybil" a long, long, time ago. She was a pretty moody teenager and we thought the name was fitting, lol. Anyway, we called her that for quite a while. I'm just glad she outgrew all that moodiness, lol.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
