Blogging

I started mine up a couple of weeks ago. Wish I'd blogged the pre-op stuff too, but I'm not lookin' back now! :thumbup:

Fed up with being overfed

I have been blogging and documenting my road down to a healthier me since day one. By all means! blog, there is a whole community of ranging from very experienced to newbies. We support each other and praise each others acccomplishments. My biggest advise along with blogging is to do measurements and pictures. Even if you are not ready to share them with anyone but yourself. You will be sooo glad you did it! Good luck!:thumbup:

I've had three or four different blogs over the past 10 years. Not sure how many readers I ever had, but I always went into it with the attitude that I was blogging for myself. You're absolutely right, that blogging will help you as you go through your journey. I'll be by in a day or two!

I just started a blog a few days ago. I was worried about not having anyone follow it... but I decided that even if nobody follows my blog I'm still going to do it because I know it will help me through this journey. :thumbup:

It's a little late for me to go blog hopping right now (1:55 AM and I should be in bed!), so I'll come back to this thread and visit you all over the next few days. I just re-started a blog that I've had from the beginning. Actually, I can't remember the login and password -- and can't figure it out! -- for a WordPress blog, so I've started a Blogger blog, with a link back to the old one. Anyway -- I'd appreciate it if you'd stop by, but be mindful of the fact that it's under construction for now! :thumbup:

Okay, I couldn't sleep. Since I'm a bit tired to be reading and paying attention to all the lovely blogs mentioned in this post, I added you all to my blogroll! It will be easier to have your blogs there to refer to, rather than having to come back to this post each time I want to check someone out. I should get to each of you in the next day or so.

Happy blogging -- and good luck on your lap-band journeys! :thumbup:

I just started blogging again. I'm still working on the set up and what not, but it's up and running.

I'm blogging too. I've enjoyed reading them so much!!! It's very cool to find a community of people who support each other like this. Imagine what a great world this would be if everyone was this positive and supportive of other peoples' struggles.

Katie, I like your blog, but I'm having trouble leaving a comment! I tried in two different browsers and I couldn't with either. I've been blog hopping and leaving comments for several minutes, so I don't think blogger is down.

I have a blog that I just started- it's below. Thinking of moving to blogger though since more people have it.

wannaB, I can't get your blog to load. I tried it in two different broswers; all I get is a blank screen. Just thought I'd let you know.

Hmmm... I just tried it on another computer and it is working. I was editing it a little while ago- moving it from tumblr, maybe that was the problem? Thanks for letting me know!

I checked it out and it's working for me. I'll recheck the settings.

ETA: I changed a few settings, if you could try it and let me know, that would be great!

@wannaB, I bet I was trying to look as you were editing. It's great now!

@Katie, I'm still having problems. The trouble is that it asks for word verification but there is no place to type in the letters! I've attached a picture of what I see to help you. I have tried it in Chrome and IE. Right now, I don't have access to a second computer to try that.

I'm going to see if I can take the verification off of it. I only use mozilla/foxfire, maybe that has something to do with it.

ETA: I was able to disable the word verification. I hope that helps! Not much fun if you can't leave a comment, eh?
