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

      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.
