I got a reply back.....ie Mister Objective
I'm glad he got pulled. He had no business advising anyone here. We have top docs and staff and I'd put THEM up against him any day of the week! I know who would win in that case and it ain't MrObjective!
It's amazing how much we have to fight the image that what we are doing is unhealthy. Of course we will lose a little hair! We went from well over 2000 calories a day to less than 1000. The body reacts to that but once it adjusts we get back to a more normal state.
I'll take the surgery and a chance to live longer than to avoid it and know I will die from obesity related illness far too soon!

I noticed that..........Thank You OH!! I had problems with this guy sending me emails about what a terrible thing we are doing to ourselves....even told me I had no business having surgery!! He didn't have a clue!! I hope he doesn't rejoin under a new name and start with his shenanigans again.....but, I guess we can keep reporting him if he does!! I wonder if he needs WLS and can't get it and is jealous!

I hear you. I swear if I hear another *I knew someone who died from that stomach stapling thing.* I might smack someone with my growing bat wings.
Seriously I was told this today by an older couple today who knew someone who died 5 years after her WLS and is convinced that it is why she died. I dug deeper and it was her pancreas (she was diabetic for years before and after surgery) but it was WLS' fault. I was also told she went to CA for the surgery so no one woud know and never had adequete aftercare. Can you imagine 5 years with no aftercare at all? I can't quess I am spoiled by OWLO.
