This thread is so incredibly self rightous it makes me want to puke. I really think all of you have just lost touch with how difficult it was very early on. You are full of wisdom, and good advice. But seriously, if you are so fed up then I would suggest you don't even post over there.

Well I'm glad I never actually went to the main board. Sounds like I'm not missing anything.
I really didn't do a lot of research before this surgery, but I had my reasons for doing it my way. No regrets.
I guess I just knew from lurking around on the VSG forum that there was enough successful and helpful people there that I would be able to make it work.

I didn't get much of an eating plan from my surgeon so I just followed the Vets that lost all the weight and were keeping it off. The Cirangle group are dedicated, informed and successful. I'm a little jealous that I couldn't be one of that group but I certainly could piggy back them with the help of this forum.

My husband and daughter both kind of bucked the working system at first but seeing how much more successful I am at this, well lets just say, they are following the leader now.

I thank all the Vets on this site. I know I couldn't have done it this well without your input.

I would ask that you all remember that it's not the 99% of the people that don't listen and learn that you should concern yourselves with but the 1% that are listening and learning that may not be saying much.

I would hate to see you all give up on the 1%.
Your advice is vital.

cheers

I find it surprising that many people don't seem to have any idea what they should be eating at the stage they are in. I can't imagine that many surgeons aren't telling them what to eat and how much. Some of the things I read frankly sound dangerous. People eating stuff like peanut butter at a week out. Then they wonder why they throw up. Sounds dangerous to me. However there are new people who are serious and do need support. You can't lump everyone in together. I got so much support early on, and even later on. I know I wouldn't have been as successful without the help of the vets on this board. And for that I thank you all!

You're supposed to be nice over there. Do not mock or judge those that eat solids the first week post-op, blow rainbows and unicorns up azzes.

That is what they want.
