Well, as I said, she perhaps should have come clean. But I know full well that I would be upset and stressed out if I read comments about myself referring to me as a lying, fat b1tch, lard arse, etc. etc.
She made a mistake.
Ethel, even GP's refer to a gastric band as an aid. It actually doesn't work for some people and they still need to eat properly and exercise.
She has followed a strict exercise regime is now eating properly and in my opinion, whether or not she had a gastric band fitted, she is helping others.
Let her be.
