  1. There are a lot of people who agree with you about God and the Bible patty, but it's just the way you say things that bother people.
  2. Patty, you said earlier that the topic of masterbation isn't clear in the Bible. Well, I don't think the Bible is clear on the topic of abortion either.
  3. I think I would be a little bit scared to get another one since it has slipped twice. But if you really want a new one, I would talk to the doctor about some type of payment arrangements. It would be stupid for him to not offer you some type of arrangement, since he is being paid to take out the old one.
  4. I tried the KFC grilled chicken. It was good, just a little too greasy. I never could eat Long John Silvers even before being banded. It always made me sick. We don't have one where I live anymore. They closed down. Captain D's has pretty good shrimp.
  5. I am a little confused, mucus can't plug up the band. The band is on the outside of your stomach. It isn't possibe for mucus to get in it. Am I missing something?
  6. That's great! I hope to be joining you very soon!!
  7. That's a good question. I guess I wouldn't have as much of a problem with it as long as the woman knows the risks involved. Another thing to consider is if insurance would pay for an elective c section. Some may not pay unless it is medically necessary.
  8. I can't eat bread anymore, so burgers and sandwichs are out for me. I like Wendy's and Zaxby's salads. But you have to be careful with the calories and especially the dressing. I also can't eat fries any more either, not sure why, but they don't agree with me. So I eat very little fast food now. I do sometimes go to Mcdonalds and get a grilled chicken sandwich and take the meat off the bread and I'll eat a parfait. Other than that, there's not much fast food I can eat anymore.
  9. I gave up trying to eat breakfast, I just drink coffee.
  10. I have to agree with you that it doesn't matter. But I am confused, are we arguing weather or not a fetus is human or not? Of course it's human.....
  11. I'm still here too, I agree with BJean though, I get tired of it too.
  12. Well, I have no desire to go through either, labor or c section, LOL!
  13. There is nothing wrong with a c section if it is medically necessary. Most people do really well after one, but I don't think I would want one unless it was necessary. There is too much risk for infection. And as others have stated it is better for the babies lungs and breathing if it is delivered vaginally.
  14. No, prostitution is not an addiction, but a lot of women do it to pay for their other addictions. IF YOU WOULD READ MY PREVIOUS POSTS, YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. You only read what you want. You mentioned that someone who smoked shouldn't be given food. THAT'S WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. People shouldn't be denied food or medical care just because they have an addiction. DID YOU HEAR ME THAT TIME?? GEEEZZZ
  15. I am prochoice, but I think it is an interesting story. Do you know if she ever found her baby?
  16. Yea, and a lot of women who are raped also never report it at all.
  17. Did you see where Norma McCorvey was arrested for protesting?
  18. My hair is finally coming back and I want it to stay that way!
  19. Have you ever heard of addictions patty? Everyone has one, smoking, drugs, alcohol, shopping, gambling, eating. No one is perfect, and no one should be denied food or medical care just because you don't think they are worthy enough or live perfect enough to receive it.
  20. May I ask how you lost so much so fast? Do you exercise a lot?
  21. That's just wrong to make your kid go without lunch!
  22. The problem with that is most rapes go unreported and even with those that are reported, convicting someone of rape is very difficult. So if someone was raped and wanted an abortion, they may not be able to get it if the law was that the rapist had to be found guilty first.
  23. LOL! The problem I have is I can never think of a good come back until much later.
