Wow... had to take a break from the LAPBAND forum... too much DRAMA!!

there is no place like home

 Toni I like Ur new avie too  !!    Cute!!  

I second that Liz .....it gets too crazy and scary on DS. They have a group called the renegades who gang up on anyone they get a dislike to..... I finally had to block them as they were getting a bit personal and truly stalking in an effort to find out where I lived! Said stuff like we know where you live ....ect......

 Yikes !  yes i get flamed on chat  a lot  .....  its always the same people instigating it too ......  

same people HAVE  called others workplaces in  an effort to get them fired ( i couldnt believe it ) so be CAREFUL  of personal information.

 I wouldnt believe someone would do that but I was THERE and I witnesed it myself .  And the person was duly censored by their company for chatting  at work and ( probably , cuz he doesnt work there any more ) eventually fired ....

Welcome back!  This is definitely my WLS home.

I'm a newbie looking for a revision and I am always bombarded with an authoratarian attitude about how the DS surgery is the best, and why wouldn't you want the best? You never hear us complain! Check out the RNY board if you want to know what you are getting yourself into.

It is all very overwhelming. I'm a bit of a lighweight and the RNY and DS scare me.

Those dang DSrs and RNYrs scare me sometimes too!   LOL Don't be scared. Or, be scared and post anyway. Good luck in your research.
