I can't believe anyone could be so involved in a forum on lap banding that it is affecting their personal life, unless there were problems in it beforehand. Sad to see someone go from a site that has such interesting and innovative things to say. Good luck to you. Maybe you should think this over and find out the underlying problem, or confront what you think is a problem head-on. A lot of respect can be gained from facing something.

I spend a fair amount of time on this ole 'puter logged onto LBT. Hubby knows I need it. I need it for the banding support and for the short bursts of escape in my days as a stay-at-home-mom. We have a very secure relationship, but I have seen times where it drives him nuts and he let's me know "I'm over here!!!! Don't forget me!!!!" So I log off and take a break...but not forever!!

I'll miss you SunnyKim. I wish you the best in your realtionship and future. You are young. Please come back and visit as you are able. (((((hugs))))

I can wholly understand online forums just taking up too much time. I have to actively limit myself, I only visit here for short periods but I have an online mothers group that I'm enormously involved in, there's 80 or so of us, I see the melbourne girls regularly in real life too and we've even had a national meet earlier this year and are planning the next. But if I didnt limit myself, I could and would sit on the comptuer for four or five hours at a time.

Good luck and I hope your break away does you good and you get some other stuff under control.

Best of luck to you, but I don't know what I'd do without my LBT family. I feel like I know so many of the members here personally and that people really care about you here.

I wish you well.

I am glad I found LBT not only for my journey thru the weight loss but also for the off topic conversations. It is like having my friends here with me. We all have so much in common and bring different views on the matter. My husband does not say anything to me about my time on the board. I have included him in several topics and he gives me his opinions as well but it is never the same as someone actually have been there. You will be missed SunnyKim and I hope that whatever is going on in your personal life gets better..

If she checks back in I hope she will consider counseling. It sounds to me like she didn't want to face the harsh truth that this sight can sometimes provide. The band is hills and valleys and that's why you need to be able to face the truth and be realistic going into it. I doubt anyone here said anything to offend her specifically - everyone is so great here. She probably, well obviously, has some emotional issues. Sorry to sound harsh by saying that, but once again, I will not hold back the truth on this board and I expect you all to do the same, even if it's something I don't want to hear. Love you guys!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
