it wasn't deleted. still there. have you been drinking my rum?

I had a stalker that followed me to florida when i moved there for college. I know how scary it can be sue. He made the one mistake not checking things out before just walking up to the door and knocking on it. I was there living with my boyfriend and our male roommate. Both around 250 pounds of solid muscle. hehehehe but my stalker resorted to just lots of calls and following me around for approx 2 years after moving to florida. he was my ex boyfriend that was extremely abusive and dangerous. it all finally ended when we got a call from a police officer that we reported the incidents to on a regular basis. this idiot pulled a gun on the cops when they came to give him his new restraining order. so we don't have to worry about him stalking me anymore. sue....from one stalked girl to another...i do not wish him dead, but i wish you peace in this soon so you do not need to have that constant worry any longer.

oo ha ha sorry i had a nemo moment there.

a very good, expensive rum!

no one explained it to us, so we are just running with the nonsense. started in nonsense, continuing in nonsense, will end with mini me running naked through a feather factory just to see how much fun it is.

lower mortality rate!!! this is the huge deciding factor for me. Less risk of infection. Totally reversible in cases where there are complications. Bigger chance of keeping the weight off, so few chance of future surgeries. slower weightloss so less chance of needing plastic surgery in the future to remove excess problematic skin. nonmalabsorbtion style of weightloss so you will not have problems with malnutrition issues in the future.

jachut! Look at her eyes! she is gonna be trouble! and heather. you know what i think of your little messy munchkin. that is such a great smile!! too cute! thanks guys. i really love the kids pics! lets see more, people!! i know most of you are parents and grandparents!

liar!! you are like a man! hahahaha what is the stat? sex is on their minds every 2 seconds?

but not nearly as much fun as running naked through a feather factory.

Cause then eating a danish would just be a completely different thing! LOL I agree that if you must have bread, go the whole grain route. The carbs are less for one thing than processed white flour and it is not coated in tons of liquified powdered sugar.

scary calories. i think i wanted to sleep for 5 days after my first spinning class! LOL and i craved a steak sooooo badly afterwards. i think that is a good sign.

i begged the picture taker for them. I told DH that if I did not have them by the time this next party this friday rolled around I would put the outfit on again, and take new pics of my own. then take pics of the other outfit. Even with my hair gothed out, i think i looked pretty good. LOL

LOL I said this at the party this weekend, but i was asking to pass the rum.

we were blessed with these two surprises. but we are done with kids. they are definitely a hand full. it is like having twins, and they are so sneaky together. they work together to get into the worse kinds of trouble. but that is what kids do. LOL

I think we all need time in a padded room. LOL Think of how great that party would be!!

3loves i am a stay at home mom too. actually i work from home. but i am there for every change and growth and moment. It would kill me to miss a moment like that! and I would have to get pictures of it. LOL my house is FULL of pictures of the kids, and the family. but mostly my kids. LOL Your sons are adorable!! they look like little mischief makers! LOL but aren't all boys?

oh i hope i will be able to eat lettuce cause i am a salad nut!! Any of you who have some trouble...is it all types of lettuce? does spinach hurt?

Apple tree aardvark banana suck monkey cheese spoon!

ok, the funny thing is that his words were powerful enough to be used on another board, and then they found their way back here. Bravo!

i considered both. I actually looked at DS, RNY and Lap band. I like the steadiness and the long term statistics of Lapband. It was my surgery of choice. Keep in mind...this is your body. And it is your choice to which surgery you want. If the doc comes in and says that you can't have it, or that they will only do RNY and you have no choice...that is BS. Go to a different doctor. It might be a nice place, but what it really comes down to is how well you and your surgeon connect, and how well they take care of not just your physcial changes, but your emotional changes. They have to be respectful of your needs.

let me make a suggestion about the spinning class. cause i tried a spinning class and found that at this weight it was not a good idea. i have to take off a bit first. LOL Bike seats and not for fat people. LOL plain and simple. if your legs start tingling at all be done with the class for that night and go walk on the treadmill to finish the workout. or take in a towel, fold it up and put it over the seat. my first class i did i hung in there for the whole class. it was fun. i had a blast. got off the bike and couldn't walk lol my legs were in this weird asleep state (not like normal) and they hurt!!! the next time i noticed when the tingling started, got off, walked around a bit, then got back on. i have resigned to the fact that i am gonna have to just wait till i am a little smaller. I don't kow what your weight is, but if you are anything like my size you might want to watch it really closely. I really hope it goes well for you!!! I do 2 hours at the gym every morning with this GORGEOUS trainer, and i lost 8 pounds since last wednesday! it certainly works!

you know, i actually like the idea of all of us sending oprah a bunch of letters. I think that if she gets enough of them, nicely written, and well thought out explaining the ups and downs of the lapband it could really get her to stop and think. maybe she would do a show on it at least. and i think that if we had people write about all the different stages, from bandsters that are at different stages that she can see it is different than RNY. Turtles, rabbits, newly banded, veterans, eroded and slipped and everything in between. Write your story and write it well. (be sure to use spell checker. LOL) If enough of us sent letters with LBT written on the envelope in big red letters they would see that a lot of us are responding to her and want her to see some things from the other side. so is there enough dedication in this group to do this? I know that we all have enough typing time to write it out. Thanks Telly for the idea. I think itis a great one. And it is a lot better than all of us just sitting here tossing conjecture around and whining about what she thinks of Lapband. LOL

I cannot recall ever sending a nasty PM, although a few months ago I certainly received a few. I never replied, cause things like that only fuel a fire. I am rather proud that I was able to hold my tongue, and fingers, in this fight. Lord knows I love a good fight. LOL But I do agree that a place like this is not always a good place for this sort of thing. I do have to point out though that this sight is made up mostly of women. Yes we have some fine men here, but we are a female majority here, and as I told Alex...Sometimes us girls just gotta get catty in order to refresh our positions. It is human nature. I think the mods and Alex have done very well on this round. I really appreciated Alex coming into the chat last night and chatting with us. He even heard out my concerns and feelings and I wasn't involved in the bout. How cool is that. Thanks LBT for an entertaining, yet resolved start to the week.
