Well, I've been on here a long time and I hate it when some people get on here who are new, probably couple of months, usually not even banded, and been able to vote maybe 3 of 4 years if they're lucky and act like they know the difference between Dems and Rebuplicans. I won't wast e my time with you. You just LOVE arguments and I just don't have the time. So, when you grow up, learn some things, get banded, give me a yell until then leave me the hell alone. I won't be back to this immature, uninvolved, worthless, uninspring, useless thread.

There, fight with someone else.

Older, Banded, Rebulican and know what I'm talking about.

What does being old and banded have to do with whether or not you know what you're talking about? "Ooh, I'm older than you! That means I know everything and no one should contradict me! Neener, neener, neener!" Seems to me that you are the one who should grow up.

You really shouldn't start something if you're just gonna hold your breath, stomp your feet, throw a fit, and then run.

By the way...to the rest of the posters on this thread...my parents are Baptists, I grew up Baptist and this guy does NOT speak for all Baptists!

Thank you, Musicalmomma!

What's all this threatening to leave stuff? What's up with that? Do you think you're punishing people?

Oh for goodness sake! Isn't this called LapBandtalk? I don't recall it being called politicalcandidatetalk. I think it's great that this board does allow discussions of a political and religious nature (many other places will delete threads about politics and religion), but I would hope folks don't get so wound up over a simple political discussion that arrows start flying and people start threatening to leave. It's awesome that there are subforums here for people to discuss things other than just the band, but it is a discussion, everyone has different views, that's what makes the world go 'round. When someone starts a thread, especially of a political or religious nature, there is always going to be someone who believes differently than you do. And since this is a forum, there will be contrary responses.

I think it is ridiculous when people post these politically charged things and then get nasty when people post their own opinions.

I won't be back to this immature, uninvolved, worthless, uninspring, useless thread.
You do know that you are only insulting yourself, right? Since you were the one to start this "immature, uninvolved, worthless, uninspring, useless thread" and all.

I'm older than all of you, have been banded the longest, and been voting for 40 years, so does that give me the final word on this topic?

I'm not sure you're older than I, but I will defer to you due to your vast knowledge base.

Ok. I give. What's the final word?

The final word is: Enough!!

Actually, I do not expect that to be the final word, but I am curious.

If the member who started the thread deleted the original post, wouldn't the whole thread be deleted?

Some forums work that way and some don't. Does anyone know how the LBT forum software works in that case?

So because there are people here who disagree with your opinion you are just going to erase your original post and huff off in a tantrum? Maybe you are older than me but you are acting just like my 3 year old.

Younger, Banded, Republican and know what I'm talking about.

Well since the original post was edited for content, it seems moot for the moderators to let this thread continue running. What to respond to????

That's adult. You don't like what people say, so you go back and basically delete your original comment.

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
