My Type Of Inspiration May Not Be For You!!!



Recommended Posts

Even as a christian I originally thought your posts weird and out of place.But I understand that God is ur motivation and I totally respect that.Also I believe that if you truly " respect others belief" then u respect the fact that most religious People's faith teaches them to spread the good news of their faith and it's affect on their life. I think your posts are from ur heart and obviously God is in your heart.i started feeling a bit convicted that i was not sharing that part of my journey which is a lot of prayer .Any way like u said they can block you if they dont like it.but do what inspires you ! And you know many people are receiving it even if they never tell you ! please keep them coming !

Amen!!! Well said!!!

Those threads are not posted in this area. They are generally posted in the appropriate place either powder room gone wild or Rants and Raves.

Which was my exact point. That everyone should feel free to post what they want so long as it is in the appropriate place.

I have no problem with religious threads so long as they are not classified as general lapband support.

It is important to have some kind of order and also to stick to the rules and guidelines. If we ignore these then we could end up with anything anywhere and that could cause further problems.

Question: Would you be happy if someone started a thread about sex' date=' drugs etc in the General Lap Band support section?[/quote']

The definition of the word general is as follows in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary: not confined by specialization or careful limitation.

So taking this into consideration I believe that as long as the posts in the General Lap Band section are relevant to Lap Band issues and are not belligerent there should be no limitation to the subject. So any threads about sex, drugs etc. are absolutely acceptable in this light. It should be about support.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
