Congrats to all and good luck to all being banded in the upcoming days. Wishing you a wonderful surgery.

I try not to live in fear. I do have huge trust issues though and my psych eval reminded me about that.

I'm so ready to have it done, I've been looking up stuff for it forever. The first month went fast I hope the rest goes fast. I'll be sure to let you know how things are going as I do everyone.:smile: On Wednesday the 4th I will find out how much more weight I have lost on this diet. I am sooooooooooooooooooo excited.

Thanks so much. I was always scared to talk about it because I was told if I talked about it to anyway I would be killed. But that didn't happen and yeah I am still here. Still scary though. My dad is still alive somewhere around here and I have no idea where. Just afraid he might pop up someday. It's happened before in the past. But either way thank you for talking to me.

I would buy books online if I had a cc or dc. I am a poor girl LOL Um either way used books from people who don't need them anymore is always nice

Congrats! Glad you are doing well. Happy 1 month

Congratulations. Glad you are doing well. Thanks for letting us know how things went.

No probs here. Maybe loaded a bit slow for a bit but that's passed now.

Thanks brandy for the nice words. Everything just came up all at once like it did at my psych eval lol. I went to a lot of counseling for all of the stuff. And I'm on meds etc. It can still be really hard though. Thanks for caring.:smile:

Amen.

You'll feel much better in a few days hun. Just rest up and take it easy. Welcome to LBT. I wish you well.

Wow, bunches of emotion just pushed it's way out of my tear ducts. LOL whew.

The only people that needed to be sorry were my dad. Thanks though I appreciate it. The shitty childhood sure makes you a lot stronger in the long run but I also have my times when I fall apart. Life is hard sometimes. I appreciate the kind words.

Hmmm. That video is odd lol.

We all wish the world was kinder, but most of the world could give two shits about kindness. It's all about hate these days it seems.

I'm just starting my 2nd month of my 6 month diet. I need all the support I can get.

I weigh myself every two weeks. I would probably do it more if I had a scale that went past 400 lol oh well. Once I get below 400 I am sure I'll probably buy a scale lol

amen Sista!

I grew up in a horrible, abusive, alcoholic, drug infested household. I was beat, verbally abused, and worse. Much worse. Even after all that if my child was throwing a hissy fit and the only way to stop them was to spank them. I would. Spanking isn't abuse. It's simply a way to try to make the kid not do what they were doing. Slapping a kid on the bum is saying DON'T DO THAT, just like you do with a dog. Abuse is abuse. Spanking is not.

I know how it is but once I started learning about the lapband I stopped eating horribly all together. I want food and I crave it, I want chips, I want candy bars...but I don't do it because I know if I am in the process of trying to get things done and pig out because I have to wait for my 6 month period to be over I would ruin everything and have to start all over. If I am craving something I eat sugar free chocolate pudding or drink Water. Or go walk or get online. I do something to keep my hands preoccupied as well as my mind. It works. I don't want to ruin the good that I am already having even though I won't be banded until November.

Orea who was that post for? lol

Wish you lots of luck with your surgery. You shouldn't have anything to worry about. A lot of people on LBT get surgery in Mexico:thumbup:

Lol, my library in my tiny town is barely 1 room. It's not really even a library. They don't have them. :smile:

That picture is too cute!
