later taters
No one "chased" her off! Just like when she first came here, she heard some things (true things) that she didn't WANT to hear, and she got herself in a huff and ran away (which is also what she did before) after insulting many of the same people who answered her hundreds of pre-op questions.
That doesn't make her a "bad ass". It just makes her an ass.

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
Oh dear. She posted. People congratulated her but warned it would get harder. Sher read this as a personal insult and told us to f**k off. Go back and read the posts, she was the first to be nasty.
This from a person who used to post, quite literally, four or more posts every single day asking for help. Who got answers from people. But who didn't stick around to pay that forward by offering help in her turn.
No-one is chasing her off. No-one suggested she should leave until she did! But she won't stick around as you suggest! She asks questions, tells of her triumphs, then leaves. She won't stay to help others.
Highest 290, Banded - 248 Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.
Happily banded since May 2006. Regain of 28lbs 2013-14. ALL GONE!
But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,
I think we'd all be happy if she stuck around. Sadly, she just pops of every so often, gets pissed at people, and then vanishes again.

Still the same, old, thin-skinned Bacon, I see. I read through the thread and saw NOBODY trying to make you feel bad. You posted your comment and everyone else gave their own experience, related to what you posted. In my book, that's called CONVERSATION. Just because they don't agree with you, or they may have had a different experience than you did, doesn't mean that they are against you. You seriously need to get over your sense of self-importance. These people were trying to help you see that you might have an unrealistic view of how maintenance works. You chose to take offense to the advice. If you take someone sharing their own experiences as a personal attack, you have a problem.
I also see that you still like to "rewrite history". My pet peeve is someone who comes to post and then returns to change the post into something else entirely. I saw the other post where you told everyone to "f**k off". NICE!
Plus a I have learned as a grown up nobody can make us feel bad. We choose how we react to things. If somebody has that power over you get their magic wand quickly.
