Nope, Mac, not any meaner than her sitting and rolling her eyes on a show where teenagers were talking about their WLS stories.

Oh she makes me mad too. But I was talking about Kirstie Alley. You can't open a WL Center if you are a yo-yo dieter! She has no credibility.

That's how Dr. Phil being thrust on America was born.

She has more to answer for than just dissing WLS.

Heck, and here I thought taking the easy way was having a gazillion dollars and having a private chef making healthy, weight-conscious meals for you. :glare:

I think the easy way out is liposuction. :biggrin:

WLS is the hard way out. :smile2:

Dieting is the temporary way out. At least for 99.9% of the people.

Yes, she DOES have more to answer for than just dissing WLS.

Oh god how I *LOATHE* Dr Phil.

Actually I have a real problem with anyone who tells me what to think, say or feel. I never read child rearing books, I wont follow what a nutritionist says, I dont have a personal trainer because I'm sceptical of their qualifcations and think I know more, I only *just* listen to my doctor, lol. i have a real problem with authority I think.

Thus anyone like Oprah who purports to speak for the masses, you can guarantee I'll hate them.

I'm with you on that too. Thank GOD I didn't read the Dr. Spock book I was given all those years ago when kiddo was born. The guy was a nut who helped create the mess we have now with kids.

To be fair, I said "fanatical DS'ers". I'm sure there are Ds'ers that are totally normal......they unfortunately get overshadowed a lot of the time.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Yeah, right.

;o)

Paid "mouthpiece" or not, I still like Carnie. At least she's not one of those fanatical DS'ers....."I pooped 12 lbs and it looked like Mt Rushmore. Is this normal"

OMG I almost choked on my yogurt. LMAO

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
