OK I just saw a Papa John's Pizza advertisement at the top of the Home page, that is the wrong type of advertisement to have on a WL site that is horrible especailly for those of us having surgery this week and have been on a liquid diet for 2 weeks, I am so hungary I can eat a person's ass on a bun right now and I look up to see a PAPA John's advertisement, I'm going straight to the big man or woman about this!   come on people have some compassion here! lol

 While certainly our browsers CAN block ads- Papa Johns PAID Obesity Help to place that ad there.

That's a google ad and based on things you've recently been looking at. I've found that all it takes is to open a thread about cauliflower pizza and next thing I know the google ad has zeroeed in on this and thinks I want pizza. This isn't OH this is a google ad

If I google flea collars, it'll show flea collars or veterinary products.

Just ignore it.

 With Google ads, a website CAN give some guidelines about what kinds of ads are acceptable or not  to end up on their site... It would be nice if junk food was off the list.

As soon as I hit "send' on that message, it was a pizza advert..... because my previous page..... YOUR THREAD had the word pizza in it. It is what it is.

I agree.  I've noticed advertisements for food too on this website.  I didn't think that was the best idea either. 

Hang in there.  The 3 weeks on the liquid diet were very hard on me too.  For the first few days I wanted to scream when I saw a food commercial on tv.  After a few days went by it didn't bother me any more.
