    Topic: RE: If I could go back 7 Years....
    This is completely untrue. There are some aspects of the journey that you control, but you can't 100% control how much weight you will or will not lose. How many revised bands do we have here? Did they control their outcome?

    To the person who asked the question - yes there are studies, and absolutely statistics matter.

    Topic: RE: Dating after WLS
    There is a singles board here on OH. Not a dating board, but a board for singles to ask for advice, these types of questions, etc.

    I do not/would not share about my WLS unless or until I was in a commited relationship. Yes, some people do judge you because you've had surgery. Both men and women. And yes, saggy skin does matter to some men, and women too. It's definitely a change.

    Good grief! Your story is so full of contradictions. Can't eat much but can eat 6 Hershey bars at a time. You really need to NOT give advice to people who want to be successful. Can drink a Mt Dew but 2  messes up your blood sugar.

    Good lord.

    Wow. You have no issue spreading her business around, huh? Why is it that as soon as someone spreads yours - your own words - threads go poof and you go serial deleting?

    My suggestion is if you can go to the interview then go by all means I understand how difficult the market is today and finding employment.  However, if you really don't believe you can get through an interview then you really do need to head to the ER or doctor and find out what is going on.

    Good luck!
    This!

    If you walk into a prospective employer being sick, they may think you are the sickly type person who needs to take off with every hang nail. It doesn't look good!!! Yes, unfortunately, it's like pregnancy. You are better to just hide until you have the job.

    Again, I haven't ordered! But I have read enough here from MM to sway my opinion. Yes, I do believe she has a following here and people take her advice. Bottom line, I've read a **** ton more about SM than I'd have ever known about SM from MM. Yes, it is HER competition, and she has plenty to gain by being the first to jump in and say "NO, don't order from her"..............

    Yeah, in a few days.

    But I know what you mean, I'm glad I don't have to kill myself with hours of exercise daily, too. Also depriving myself of everything under the sun. Oh, and OA. :)

    Topic: RE: Eye opener moment
    That's funny. I see the same sometimes from bigger people, but mostly, I see the bigger people opting for what they *think* is the healthier/lesser calorie option - which most would think would be a wrap.

    Lots of stereotypes here, but.............

    Topic: RE: anyone hear the story of the woman choking to death
    I honestly have totally worried about this since my surgery.

    I struggled for more than a year with a stricture and a slow motility stomach. I went to bed MANY nights only to wake up and find food I had eaten for dinner on my pillow, up my nose, etc. It's not nearly as bad now that my stomach seems to have stretched more, but there is still the occassional episode where I "throw up" in the night and don't even realize it until the next morning......

    Topic: RE: Stinking Sleep Study
    I had a sleep study years ago and it doesn't sound like mine was any easier than yours. I can commiserate. I didn't sleep worth a hoot, even though I am a side sleeper. It was miserable, and I woke up every couple hours.

    They could not get a good reading from how little I slept..........it sucked!
