Warning - Drama Post

Actually - the comment was that someone that Ro had a conversation with made that comment.  So it really wasn't a direct indictment.  Heresay feedback.  And - from those of us on the board for 4+ years - who are on it EVERYday ALLday - it's an observation, harsh, possibly incorrect, but an observation none the less. 

If someone that was 7 years out said to me that my falling outta my gym routine and my recent eating was me not understanding or honoring the gift what WLS is to me - hell - I gotta sit back and say - 'old mofo - I worked like hell to get close to goal, I only fell off a lil - how you gon come at me like dat?' - then they tell me that i am a stupid mofo for thinking the weight would stay off, my idiot azz knows better and Imma FOOL if I don't get back in the saddle and stop sabotoging my continued success..... hell - that's just experience talking.

See but perception is everything and the reason she was relaying that was because of how Meekie came at her (wait let me take that back. That's why I think she relayed it. I am assuming here) When you are new to the site and new to wls it can be off putting to read something like that. That is when you don't want to post as a new person. Who wants to be labeled? I am sure some newbies are young and immature. Some vets are old and immature. But you can't put everyone in the same box. I am a newbie but I don't consider myself immature at all.  I will claim the young part though LOL.

Hey, who you calling old?  grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!     lol

Oh - as someone who has been on the wrong side of perception MANY times - no doubt.  But instead of blasting back based on YOUR assumption of the statement - why not dig deeper into why and what comprises it?

I'm the type to wanna know why a mofo say the shiot they do - then blast em once I get down to the nitty gritty - other wanna jump fly first off - and if you do - this is the kinda shiot that can happen. 

Hell- I been labeled SEVERAL times and misunderstoond QUITE a few times - but I have ALWAYS explained and/or apologized as necessary - now - there were times when that apology or explanation were shoved up my azz - so I had to blast back - so when you get into that part of the exchange, who owes what to whom?

When people feel attacked they attack back. Its human nature. Some of us have learned to control that impulse but really that is how most people react.

My point solely is that is why you won't catch me posting any weight loss questions on here because I don't want to be attacked.

but see - that's my thing - when has a vet been the first to swing?  I'm for real. 

LOL I cannot even believe you asked that  Dang girl you funny even when you aint trying to be.

  naw not funny - for reals......

Why create drama posts if you feel there is an issue? Just talk about whatever there is on your mind...to do anything else is kinda silly and as juvenile as that which irritates you.

Why would anyone get a pass especially after messing up.  Sharing what you learned which lead to your downfall great but nobody should forget the second surgery because that is exactly what we try to get across...have surgery, make the lifestyle change necessary to maintain it or whine later.   I don't know  about you but that is what I have repeated in my head since  day one.  I was told the dangers of what I was doing then after praying to come  thru it....messing up and not taking advantage of that blessing was not an option.

I was wondering the same thing WHAT started this post. If I would have made this post I would have shot straight from the hip...

WHY did MOB jump on Meekie_09 about her question, BUT basically patted Treena on the back with her post?

Maybe I need to start a new post.
