    From what I can tell ~ as long as we click on NEW POST, then we seem to stay safe.
  2. Sheila, thanks for this info. Im gonna give these 'dots' a week to see if they can do the trick. If not, then Ill look you up for more infor on the powder. Thanks!
  3. What a tragic loss... Even though we thought he was as crazy as a loon - he entertained us MANY nights. My kids would have belly-busting laughs with him as well as being educated on wildlife. Whats funny is as many times as we've said, "He's gonna get killed doing that!" - its still a shock to read of HOW he died. God bless his family.

    Great minds think alike! Dont foget about us here at LBT. We'll be dying to see those pics. Ive never been to a wedding that wasnt beautiful. Regardless if it was the simplist or most extravagant. They are all unique, special and beautiful. Also, Ive never been to a wedding where something didnt go wrong. :phanvan Remember Kelly, IF something doesnt go according to plans, that's going to be the biggest story you'll talk about in years to come. :biggrin1: :biggrin1:

    Vines, YOU may win the Labor Day weekend prize - for having the most interesting experience. remember, we want pics, ok? Tricia, too bad we live on opposite sides of the state - you would be my 'sun buddy'! btw:how do you get all the pics on the same post? When I try loading more then 1, they come up as attachments well, here's Mike and BeBe... and the damn dog! LOOK at that tounge.
  11. Funny how the newness wear off. Im in the same boat - 2 years later and not givin much a hoot about protien and Fiber and all that other stuff. Heck, *3* years later and youre down 70ish pounds. Thats something to shout out! Happy Bandanniversy. And if YOU get that kick in the pants, give them MY address - ok?
  12. What mg's are you guys taking? I just bought some b-12 500mcg sub. dots - from Walmart. I thought about taking one tonight, but after reading what Mandy wrote, maybe I should wait and start taking them in the AM? I cant afford to lose any more sleep :notagree
  13. Friday night I went with my sister to a Weightloss Surgery seminar. The speaking surgeon performs both the RnY and lap-band. He said that he recommends all of his patients take extra Calcium tablets and B-12 injections - the B-12 injections increase metobolism (energy). Just wondering if any of us are getting these injections?! Since I am -so tired- all of the time, I was interested in getting a B-12 shot, just didnt know if it helps or not!

    Yep, I saw it! LBT didnt do anything funny when I logged on - but I did see a crazy looking thread title. *rolling my eyes* oh brother... Alex, please come to our rescue!

    Smart Man! Jack, when I become wise and silver haired, I wanna live my days in duplicate of yours. Gardening and traveling! Now thats my idea of retirement! Josette, Mary, Maudispam - we want pictures, k? be safe everyone!
  19. Mine too, Vines. Thats one of the biggest reason I chose to have WLS!!! Gonnadoit, We've all had so many weight related rejections that our sheild of self-protection is on high alert. Finding one guy out of 200 that gives an overweight girl a second look is a rare find. Don't beat yourself up over it... Main thing is that it wasnt meant to be! Maybe this situation occured to give you more self-confidence to approace Mr. Right?
  20. paula replied to Josette's topic in The Lounge
    Hi Josette, Fortunately I dont have ANY experience with skin cancer, but I am a sun lover and bask in it several times a week. Because of my love for sun tanning, I think about skin cancer quite often. Im gonna be keeping an eye on this thread for future updates. Good luck! ((hugs))
  21. Hi Jon, good to see you! So so very sorry to hear of your MIL's death. ((family hugs)) May she rest in heavenly peace. Have you ever heard of Big Daddy Weave? They have a song - "Changing Neighborhoods". The words to this song were a source of consolation for me during the deaths of my grandparents - who died 3 months apart. God bless your wife and entire family during this grieving phase.
  22. Hey Diane, wow - youre a walking miracle! Thank you for giving us an update. I think about you often. I was wondering how the kids were handleing life without mom. Just a guess, but Im thinking they developed a ton of responsibility since your absence. Hope you continue the wonderful recovery.. God bless.
  23. Tricia, GERD/reflux is no fun I continue to deal with this issue MANY nights. Here is a thread I posted many moons ago that gives good details on GERD http://lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=4154 hope your friend finds relief.
