This is really aimed at newbies or those just a few years out, from a vet ( very successful) of almost nine years. Surgery is truly wonderful. One of the best things I ever did. But please realise, the battles now may be won, but the war goes on for li

Those who know me will be aware that, while loving my band, I don't minimise potential complications. I have been talking to someone about banding and I said that I had been told (many, many times) on OH that Allergan now have on their site the informa

The RIGHT way??? A bit of a vent. - sorry, there IS no right way to eat to lose weight. Obviously I don't mean we can eat whatever we like and lose weight but I get irritated when people post that you MUST eat a cert...

Open letter to OH. Excuses have run out of time. - I have been a member of OH since early 2006. Over the years there have been, inevitably, technical issues on the site. But you have always resolved them. The failure of your techn...
