RnY vs VSG (yes, again) :)
Kimber
Good going for saying what u did what I said I was trying to be nice I have also been upset about her negative posts and if someone says something she doesnt like she gets all offensive. So good for you for having the courage to say what you feel.
Everyone on here has to do the research for themselves and speak with the professionals. I had a VSG and was trying to tell her that you could have the same complications as with the RNY or any other WLS and I have told her this previously.

I tried to be the same way back when we first started talking and when she would come back with the negative responses etc that is when I chose to remove her from my life. I didn't need that, it was making me second guess a decision I had took so long to make myself.
Thank you, I'm not one much for speaking up. I'm the person that usually sits back and keeps it bottled up. Yes I'm behind a keyboard, but it's still a big step for me.
Proud of you Kimber. The posts have been driving me crazy and I so wanted to correct her many times in my "nurse voice", but on this forum I am not a nurse but rather a Bariatric patient just like y'all. The posts were always so negative towards our health care system. I know personally & professionally it's not perfect but it's a lot better than other systems out there.
