You do realise that this is a lapband site don't you?

The majority of your posts are extremely religious. Now if you believe in God, Allah,Jehovah, The Christmas Bunny, whoever that is fine. If you want to talk about it fine. But do you think you could try to post it in an appropriate place.

This kind of post would go far better in the Religious Bandsters forum , it is hardly a General Lap Band Surgery Discussion type of post.

I love that your always positive and uplifting and that is what so many of us especially in the early stages of the lap band need. Thank you for your inspiration.

We depend on each other for advice, suggestions, questions etc., but, sometimes we need help from another source and you remind us or point us to that source. Even though this could go under a religious forum, we're not debating religious topics and the inspiration is very much appreciated. I also thank you.

This message is for all those who see my inspirational posting as too Religious for Lap Band. Elcee. I just want you to know that My postings may not be for you since you think they are too religious so I would give you the advice to block me off your page. Because the way I see God is apart of this process and if you don't have him. The way I feel failure process of losing weight will be an option if you don't have the right guidance and strength. What works for me may not work for you!! To All those who like my inspirational posting I will keep them coming!!!! Smooches!!!

Lets Go bandsters!!!!

Please keep them coming cause I like them...wow I don't see why it bothers anyone...some people just always gotta have something to say about everything...smh

I have no problem with you posting religious stuff.

BUT

I think you need to show a little respect. Not every member of LBT believes in the same God as you.Therefore if the post is made in the appropriate place it will not offend anyone.

Please keep posting but put it in the proper forum.

I'm sure we could go thru post and find hundreds that could be posted someplace different. To each their own, if you don't agree with someone that is your right. Be respectful and let it go, no one is being hurt, if you do not agree please read a different post that does not offend you.

God comes in all shapes and forms and anybody that says that this is "your" god obviously has missed something along the lines. I believe the word is "atheist"? Someone who does not believe in God? I do not believe she meant anything bad about God and I myself pray everyday for the strength and help in keeping this weight off after fighting this battle my whole life. I do believe there was help in something and somebody more powerful than you or I that has kept me off of medications for the last 4 years. My mom used to say that God helps those that help themselves. Too bad you don't have the strong belief that most of us do! Have a wonderful and blessed day anyway!

I love reading your post and I think you should post anywhere you want. there are a few people who this board who feel they can do no wrong and make rude comments. not sure if anyone else notices but I do and i dont get the point of it . its a message board i wonder if they speak to people in thier real life that way. anyway please keep posting I could use the inspiration :)

I loved your post!! I read it at just the right time;) keep them coming..I see plenty of post that should be in different forums including my own but I just keep it moving no biggie;) stay blessed!

Whoa!!! I think your posts should keep coming! Screw the negativity of others! They can choose to overlook it! Since we are all here for the help and support of each other I thought I may share a book that ive been reading about suplementing our craving with food for our craving for GOD!!!

Apparently GOD works for a lot of us and I'm SO HAPPY to share it with y'all!

Another one of my favorites I can offer to the one that doesn't want to hear about GOD and our inspiration he has in our lives is called "The Christian Athiest". You should read it! Good luck an because your so offended to even read about the word of god in OUR FEELINGS and HOW WE ARE GETTING THROUGH OUR ADDICTIONS....I pray the LORD ALMIGHTY HAS MERCY ON YOUR SOUL! Here is the link for you

I am an atheist and I am new here. This post/thread has me wondering, would it be an issue if I started threads in the lap band general discussion area insisting that there is no god, and that we all need to learn how to trust in ourselves and in one another because we are all on this planet together and in the end we are all we have..? I don't mean to be contentious, I would just like to clarify whether or not a belief in a supreme being is a necessity for board members. Ideas?

Post as you feel!! If they don't like you posting about God then they don't have to read it or better yet, don't comment!!! This is a message board.... Post your message! If they want to post their atheist message go for it too.... I just wouldn't read it!!
