When I post some topic's related to God and my Happiness I see How Many disguisting and nasty postings that I get on this website, But I have only one thing to say about that!!

Greater is He That is In Me Then He That Is In The World!!! 1 John 4:4

I Love My New Shape and My New Lap Band and The Results!! God has taken me to new places I Never Imagined to Be!!

So Keep Fussing and I will Keep Posting!!!

I think that there is a place and time for everything, and when it comes to religion or politics it's always better to be respectful and cautious when voicing your opinion on a public forum. This doesn't mean that you don't have the right to voice your opinion but to realize that you might make others uncomfortable or even offend them by doing so. and that's a very thin line that we should all be careful not to cross.

Keep in mind that bringing religion or politics to a Lap band forum is not exactly expected but if you do it, it would be better to do it on the appropiate section of the forum, that way you can send your message to a better target audience and respect the ones that do not share your beliefs.

About personal attacks to each other on this forum I think they're absolutley unnecessary and go against the idea of a place like this.

Banderama, I do agree you should have a sugar free popsicle, would you like to have it with me

Cooper123. I would your popsicle any day. And afterwards we could even maybe have some jello.

A popsicle actually sounds really intriguing! I like the sugar free dreyers fruit bars.... Mmmm :-)

Love your posts!!!!!

Its funny, banderama is on this thread spewing very negative comments and is then critical of how "religious people" act. No one is attacking you, we are encouraging this thread creator. YOU are turning it around. P.s. most scientists are Christians. The loudest aren't. They don't speak for all, they are just louder.

I believe God helped me decide on getting the band and curing myself. My belief is that God helps those that help themselves. As far as Bandarama (whatever her name is) being on total liquid diet. Done that, I am so over FAD diets, maybe her God told her to do that. She will be getting bariatric surgery down the road just like all of us when she is tired of YO-YO dieting. I have learned a lot about fad diets and my own eating habits since being banded and she thinks that liquids to get off the weight will work. Ha Ha, it will come back twice as fast when you do eat. There is not a single diet out there that I have not tried in 60 years and this is the answer, love it or lump it honey. That's all I can say is God be with you my dear!!!!!!

Too bad god didn't give you the brains to look at my profile and see that I am on the liquid diet because I am being banded in 1 week its amazing how you Bible thumpers are more judgemental, critical, and quick to put down god would be ashamed of you. I don't care what you say god

God did not lead you to the surgery you have no self control you stuffed your face and now it's surgery or die at least I can admit it.

With that being said good luck to all the nice people on this forum and even those of you judgemental Jesus freaks I am sure you will rejoice and say the rosary because you won't hear from me anymore I won't read your responses I find you are quite pathetic not all of you you know who you are now go have a popsicle

Banderama, Ma'am your posts are the most judgemental, I've seen on here. I'm sorry that Christianity upsets you. But, don't judge a whole group of by a few.

Banderama I think u are so wrong and hypocritical for this statement .if you don't believe that God helps people with the Lapband keep scrolling.But name calling is so unnecessary.

Wether u believe in God or not most people know that it took a strength beyond them to make the decision to change your life and lose weight.After you are banded you still have to find the strength to make the right food choices food amounts and exercise.So if u can do that on your own great for you and maybe u don't need the band at all.But don't knock someone for stating what's helping them stick to this lifestyle even if the something is God.

To poster Regarding " target audience" 1.if you are a Christian as well as many other faiths , the world is your target audience. You are supposed to spread the good news of ur faith to everyone.

I really hope the person leaving Lapband talk come back.This site is very inspirational and to me having diverse opinions is what makes it great ! You will find your nitch or click with like minded that will help you. The spiritual piece is very helpful to some including me and not so for others but that's what life is about.

To original poster I already told you I love what you And admire your faith ! Keep it coming God bless you !
