My Response ~ Stop the whining AGAIN



Recommended Posts

I think someone must have locked the wrong thread so I'm starting this one anew. Since there wasn't a post that was against LBT policy and I haven't had any contact from any mods, I am guessing it was an error. :confused: After all, we are in the correct forum, the Rants and Raves (NEW!) Gripe, complain, moan, fight, rant,and rave. Enter at your own risk.

I can understand your concern and your position considering you just had lunch with *****. If you were to sit down with me for 3 hrs or less, trust me, it would be a total different story. I am not full of hate or anger. Just the opposite. I've never been happier in my life. I'm not just saying that....I had a conversation with my mom last week on the very subject. She said how happy she was to hear that. If you lived in my home or where I currently live, you would only hear good things. I carry myself with dignity and character. My only judge is the Lord. So far, I have not felt the need to ask His forgiveness for anything I've done. I do feel the need to pray for someone like *****. You too will understand one day and I pray you are not hurt in the process. She is only using the "Christian" thing as a judgment to criticize and it doesn't phase me. I stand firm in who I am and what I believe. I don't need to stand with Dody, Lisa, or anyone else. I stand on my own 2 feet and only answer to my DH and my Lord. I'm pretty sure they feel the same way, but let them speak for themselves.

I do take a stand where I feel harm is being done and if you care to take the time, go back and read some threads....that is if they're not deleted by now. She is known to do that after she changes her mind.

I'm not asking you to take any sides. I have friends on here that are friends with ***** and myself. Just ask Dody. When she was friends with *****, I never once tried to change that friendship in any way.

However, I will take a stand when I feel it is necessary and am not now and never will be intimidated by ANYONE. Even if they question if I'm a Christian, that is their issue not mine. My posts speak for themselves and so do hers. Did you read anything nasty in my posts? I think not. Read hers.

I appreciate your compassion and I know your being sincere. To be honest, I've had some some good laughs and I'm sorry she feels hurt in the process. She should really stay away from threads that bother her. She had no business posting or bringing up what she did on the DeLarla thread which is what started all this drama. She can't dish it out then cry foul. I for one, will call her bluff. Like I said before, you've got to take a stand for what you feel is right. That is exactly what I have done and will continue to do.

BTW, she was reprimanded for getting nasty. She's said so herself. That is a prime example of how someone can carry themselves without getting nasty like she does. Maybe it's the wine based on her post saying she had a lot to drink and felt bad for getting nasty.

Please do me a favor and plead for ***** to stay out of threads where she KNOWS she doesn't like the people and/or topic. She'll be a lot better off. People grew weary of this stuff from her a long time ago. I hope you continue to be a good friend to her and protect yourself in the process (not only saying that b/c of her, others as well). The only one you can count on is the Lord and He never has and never will fail us.

Actually it has turned into a fun thread. For some unknown reason it was locked. Perhaps mixed up with an offensive thread? Dunno. So did Telly go to bed? She was supposed to meet me behind the barn tonight.

3Loves, this is getting locked too because you are just trying to stir up trouble. You are deliberately attacking another member, "anonymously" perhaps but it's not acceptable. Please make this the last one.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      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!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
