Why is Lassie on a BB's topic? I thought we were private? I am feeling invaded. Help Princess CG, save us! :o

The more I thought about your post (and that some people clicked Like) the more hurt I became. I have never said anything negative on this forum to anyone. I came on this forum to get help for my addiction to food and now I stayed on it to still get help, but also to help the newbie’s. Then someone compared my name to a dog (oh my, did that hurt) abet a beautiful dog but a dog none the less. I am not sure if you thought you were being funny (but at my expense) I did not think it was funny. I am sure that you will think I am being too sensitive and maybe I am, but I cannot remember the last time I felt so bullied.

I will try in the future not to post on anything you comment on. Have a good day and God Bless.

Lassie non of us meant to hurt you. We joke and pick on each other, please know that we were just having fun and being silly little girls. You are not being too sensitive, you were hurt and for that we are deeply sorry.

You are welcome to invade us ANYTIME. We are all here for the love and support of our fellow bandsters. We just show our love by cutting up with each other.

Please except my apology for all my BB friends. We meant to be funny.

Lassie,

Please accept a sincere apology. First, I just assumed your screen name was the name of what looked like a pet's picture. In no way was I calling you a dog. Heck, my name is after a musical instrument!! And it was a play on words ban +jo(short for joanne).

I was psyched to have someone else join the game.honestly.

And Aj is right on, we goof on each other all the time, if you read back you'll see how Chez and I were going at it. But all in fun.

I hope you believe me.

Joanne Edwards

OMG Lassie, I never intended to poke fun at your name. Most of us on the trivia game are members of a social group, so I ASSumed this was one of our posts. I guess I made and A$$ out of me. Please forgive me. I was just harping because we have new members to the social group and I have not met them all. All of the Banded B's are very supportive and loving. Even if we are B' in private!

So sorry to cause you pain. Thank you for coming back to tell us all how you felt! That takes guts girl and we respect you for it!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
