I'm out of here.

Just curious, what's the reasoning behind your signature line?

Read THIS thread.

Wow interesting read.  My bf who couldn't care less about any wls knows what the sleeve is and the fact it removes a portion of the stomach and leaves the intestines in tact only because I have spoken about it replacing the rny as the gold standard.  How on earth does someone who posts here everyday not know this.  Wow.

Especially since she claimed to be a certified bariatric counselor?

NO kidding!  Talk about discrediting yourself.

Instead of flouncing, this seems like a great opportunity to educate yourself in a field you clearly care about. It's easy to get stuck in a rut with outdated knowledge, but it's also easy (and worthwhile) to get out of that rut through education. 

Agreed! Doctors have to keep up with the latest and greatest, I don't see why anyone else in a related field-- in whatever capacity-- shouldn't have to do the same.

Suicide is NEVER the answer !

Please get professional help NOW !

Someone....some where will miss you.....

From GwenMo: "Instead of flouncing, this seems like a great opportunity to educate yourself in a field you clearly care about."

What she said. You clearly have a gift for providing encouragement, which is something a lot of people need, and you clearly have a passion for interacting with others who have had WLS. It sounds lIke you need to add some additional education, though, rather than basing your support just on your own experience with your mini bypass.
