I felt like the hour I spent reading the thread was a waist. How much can I believe? I was quite upset...and I am a person that does not get upset easily.
Can someone sum up in one or two paragraphs what is going on here. What information that is pertinant to WLS (I don't care about your other crap) seems to be untrue. Am I basing my decision on somebody's personal fiction?

Hi Kenneth,
Welcome to Thinnertimes forum. I am sorry your first experience was so fragmented. The reality is that this a peer forum and often times it takes a life of its own. Just like anything else in life, consider the source, take what you need and vary all your sources anytime you gather info on any subject.
If you continue reading, you will soon find the peers whom you know to trust advice and those who are here for socializing and those who have their own agenda...just like a family we have a diverse group and based on your needs and desires you can chose who you hang with....we are glad you are here and look forward to your input
