Thought i would ask.... How many of you have LBT as your secret place? Meaning that you come here and talk to follow LB people and are able to speak your mind and not have to worry if someone you know will see.....

I do... my hubby don't know about the site and i love it that way... i can come here and say what i want and not have to worry about what people that "know" me will think...

Just curious Does your Husband/Wife know you come here...?

I am an open book lol EVERYONE that is in my life knows I am on this journey, it helps to keep me motivated by knowing I am inspiring others. As far as the site goes, I use it for general info, to give my two cents needed or not, and to be part of a community of those like me.

I also have told everyone about getting banded and am proud to say that I have a couple other of my friends ready to take the journey also. I have told one about this site, but the other is not into computers so I didn't tell him. I know my mother and son know about the site since they have seen me on it, but they would never read what I post unless I showed it to them. I also keep my friends on facebook updated and that is how most of my family learns about what is happening with my band.

It's no secret but not many know that I jump on this site from time to time. I have a FB weight loss Page that I created for me and my closets friends but I don't openly share about my band. On here I'm able to talk a lil more freely because everyone or should I say most here can relate. I just don't want to be overweight again so whatever it takes.

Hubby knows about this site, I too share some of my fav's with him. He is super glad I have this forum for support and has ZERO interest in coming on here.

Hubby did complain once... when I forgot to record the 1st LSU game of this season. ..... I know, horrible horrible mistake!!!! When he asked what distracted me, I was honest & said "was online reading what my peeps had to say on the LB forum"... lol

...... G. E. A. U. X. Tigers!!!!!!!

Geaux tigers.....

Omg YESSS! Facebook was my outlet then I had family members and friends to friend request and was upset when I would accept. So I did and my posts became more comical than personal. I love this place. It's my secret circle. I can be honest and opened without judgment. Of course we get lectured but it's the good stuff

My boyfriend knows, but can't go on it....he does NOT need to know I weigh more than him.....he can just think it.....silently, lol
