biggest loser - '09

IMO, he got TWO opportunities of a lifetime: the surgery and the show. And if the effort he's putting forth on the show is any indicator, no wonder he failed after his gastric bypass.

His heart really isn't in this. For HIM to say that it's anybody's time to go (other than his own) just pisses me off to no end.

Beth - it's kinda scary how we think so much alike. To paraphrase Wendy Williams "you are a friend in my head". I think Ron (aka Brown Whiny Dad) needs to go home and I'm not sure why his team hasn't sent him home yet! :confused:

EXCUSE ME!!!! I didn't call him names! I couldn't remember his name, Hence the term BROWN dad! Please don't tell me you have never called anyone names. Wether they be fat, thin, handycapped! Whatever!! I don't think there is 1 single person (other than Jesus) that has never called someone names. I don't necessarily like name calling, but I'm not calling the kettle black!

Are you really PG with a name change?

If you had actually read my post, I was only objecting to the terms "ripple-dad", "shar-pei" and other demeaning names based on his APPEARANCE. "Brown dad" is not a name, it is a description and not in the least rude or offensive. I just found it extremely hypocritical that people on a this site, a site for OBESE PEOPLE WERE MAKING FUN OF AN OBESE MAN ON HIS APPEARANCE WITH CHILDISH NAME CALLING. Knock him for his actions (uncommitted) or his attitude, but not for his fat body, I mean honestly, those who live in glass houses..... How many posts are on this site with people who are in pain for past taunts and recriminations made against them by others based on their weight? Everyone supports theses posters and recognizes the cruelty in name calling but I guess the Brown dad is different, I'm sure it will help his son a lot to hear his father, the man he loves, called the hurtful names that are being bantered about here. I just found it very ironic that a bunch of people who would not pass a "naked test" are mocking someone else who is in the same the boat as themselves. Flame away, as no one EVER admits a wrongdoing on an anonomous chat board.

i think ron has raised one terrific kid, who is generous / kind / good natured. he really doesn't bother me as a player, like manatee said ... maybe he's more the mastermind behind the sceens vs the loud obnoxious cousins, or kristin. ????

BUT, on a message board - everyone gets to say what they want, not against the rules to keep the convo on topic....

tara & mike = :confused: go black team!

Yes, because I'm sure his son comes here daily.

Mike? Mike, you there? Helloooooo, Mike?

If you had actually read my post,

And if you had read mine, you would realize that a Moderator told you to cut it out and stop criticizing other posters who aren't doing anything against the rules.

If you must continue the discussion, take it to PM.

My DH says there was a character on Star Trek who had the same face as Rons stomach. he tried a couple of weeks ago to find the name of the character or creature but didn't have any luck and isn't a big enough trekkie. Me I see gills, yeah I know its not nice but we all see what we see. Maybe if he wasn't such an a$$ we'd see a good personality and not some idiot condeming what we believe in (WLS) after all he said he was proof it didn't work so if hes the WLS spokesperson that makes it worse. By the way hes the one who choose to take his top off in front of the world

Saundra,

You hit the nail on the head. ALL of them are fat. I'm not calling any of the ones names who aren't acting like whiny jerks.

Oh, great...now whiny jerks are offended.

I can't win.

Oops...now winners are offended.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
