By day four I wasn't taking any pain meds during the day, only chewing on cherry flavoured Gas-X. I found the operation very easy to recover from and I am 57 and I have a low pain threshhold.

How about a headless dressed body?????

My surgery and recovery was really fast with very little pain except for gas cramps. I wish I had been told that I had to walk in order to get rid of the gas. Instead I lay around in bed for a couple of days, reading, dozing, and eating cherry flavoured Gas-X. Lots of cherry flavoured Gas-X. :phanvan And, oh yah, if you take other meds, buy yourself a pill crusher.:confused:

Love the new name and think that it is most appropriate!!! Keep us in the loop, eh.

This is F!!!ing nutz! This guy is not thinking with his big head.

LOL Ignorance can be fixed, stupid is forever.:faint:

Thanx, grrls. Where are you getting banded? I got mine at TLBC Sept 7, 2006.

My port is between my breasts and about an inch and a half below my bra strap. All fills and defills are included in the cost of my band and the fill nurse has always hit the port first time. I also found, much to my surprise, that the fills hurt less than giving blood sometimes does.

Thanx a lot everyone. I do have problems with depression - it's something that runs in my family - and I am affected by lack of sun. I do have a SAD light but even so.... And watching my cat die is very tough. He is only 9 and he has had limited exposure to the food on the tainted food list, as has the other cat and she is far too frisky, and so I don't know whether his failing kidneys are a result of the food or not. He is skin and bones and depressed most of the time and we really are delaying pulling the plug for reasons of our own grief, I guess. He is an animal with which I have always had a close bond. This makes this very painful for me. To make things worse my brother and my mother died around this time two years ago, my brother in February and my mother in April.

That's a really pretty bathing suit.

Laurend is right of course if we place the hostage situation inside America for the vast majority of people who live there are Christian. If, however, you wish to consider the odds of American Christians being taken hostage in certain Middle Eastern countries by Islamic fundamentalists as against the odds of Muslims taken hostage in America by Christian fundamentalists the answer would be different. But what may, and undoubtedly rightfully in this scenario, be considered as a bias against fundamentalist Christians might spring from other concerns: that they are the ones who are agitating for certain changes in civil rights; that there has been the occasional abortion clinic bombing as well as shooting of doctors who perform abortions; that they are viewed as leading a backlash against the tradition of teaching scientific and intellectual inquiry in schools.

Omigawd, grrl, you must have dug deep in the archives in order to find my grumblings! Yep! I am still alive but winter has made me cranky and depressed, my house plants look thin and ratty, one of my cats is dying from failing kidneys, and I am still going to physio twice a week for my torn rotator cuffs.:cry Yah, the other shoulder also blew out. And my dh's father has been in very poor health. In fact there was a point when we thought that he was dying. He is now getting better and that is a good thing but we will have to have our cat put to sleep sometime very, very soon.:think This isn't going to be easy. So I haven't been feeling all that fabulous and when I suggested to my shrink that he give me more antidepressants he flatly turned me down. :phanvan But I have been trying to follow all the events in Canuck Corners. I know that Yoda's got homeowner grief:cry and that Mr. Yoda is going to become one of us. And I know that Cloe has got pissitis bad and that it won't leave.:cry And that we have more Canucks on board.:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Bienvenue a tous. And that you have got a new mattress and must be having lots of fun...sleeping.:heh:

That shows a lot of class!

Oh, that's okay. Green not only lives with a coupla cats, she's been known to sharpen her own nails on occasion. :heh:

Thanx, grrl.

I've seen Jesus Camp. That is one scary flick!

I tried googling green. It seems that there is a lot of green action out there and none of it pertains to me. So much for this green's 15 minutes of fame, eh.:heh:

Cajun, remember that the lapband is the least invasive surgery and this is safer for the patient. Good luck to you.

I voted yes even though I have been one of the slower losers. I am really happy with my reduced appetite and my slimmer body. I couldn't have done this by myself. The occasional PB or golfball really doesn't bother me. I weigh 170 now and I feel a lot happier with myself.

:faint: :heh: :heh: :heh: :heh: :heh:

What I have often noted about you extreme believers/bigots is that you often have poor spelling and grammar skills. Is this a coincidence, I wonder. It is certain that poor communication skills are not going to lead me far from my presently held atheist views.:tired

I love your site, Flabuless. Keep on working it!

I know that his wife becomes frustrated with his on-line activities and that she has been very tense lately what with her mother's poor health and her upcoming 60th birthday. He is probably focussing all of his attentions on her and their granddaughter at the moment. I believe that he is Okay and that he will soon be back. As for his own health issues, I am under the impression that the diagnosis is still up in the air....?

Well, that is just your opinion, isn't it?

Disciplining your kid is a kind and loving thing to do. The kid described in the above post is going to have a tough time in the adult world. He doesn't realise that nobody but his mother is going to put up with him and cover for his bad behaviour. This is a kid that only a mother could love, and she made him that way.:phanvan
