I would think that someone with such advanced degrees would use proper grammar and spelling. Guess not.

 

Maybe she is far to busy being superior to us?

Listen, peeps: Just because a thread is in the R&R section doesn't give everyone carte blanche to insult one another. Please keep it civil--debate the IDEA, not the PERSON.

 

I am not addressing any ONE individual here, so no one jump down my throat. This is a general advisement to everyone.

 

Thanks. :confused:

Musical,

I don't remember yanking your chain, you just need to grow up sweetie, get banded and then go from there. Why the new ones, not all now, there's just always a couple of newbies that love to stir. Really gets on my nerves. Just worry about your band sweetie pie and if I want something from you I'll ask.

 

Wow. Someone sure has her panties in a wad, eh?

Oops...my mistake. Can I use my age as an excuse for my lousy memory? Thanks for clarifying! :confused:

 

48, my voter registration card says: unaffiliated (fiscally slightly right of center, socially slightly left of center), banded

Yes! I blame my age for everything these days. Which makes my 87 YO MIL laugh.

Well your latest tirade explains a lot about why you started a thread with such tripe.

 

Come on, I'm on the edge of my chair. Tell us all about your degrees and where you got them. I'm prepared to fall to my knees in awe.

In the course of my education, I've learned that while getting degrees and being smart aren't mutually exclusive, they don't automattically go together either.

THINGS I'VE LEARNED ALONG THE WAY...

 

1. Nothing is the end of the world, except the end of the world.

 

2. No matter how hard you try, you can't save people from themselves.

 

3. Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

 

4. People will almost always believe what they want.

 

5. Free love generally isn't.

 

6. Everything is relative to something.

 

7. Being correct and being right are two different things.

 

8. You are only as happy as your saddest child.

 

9. Love is a many splintered thing.

 

10. Wearing high heels isn't worth the pain.

 

11. Just because they don't have a group for it doesn't mean it's not a problem.

 

12. You have no idea what Jesus would have done, so don't pretend otherwise.

 

13. Never leave home in your nightclothes. You are inviting disaster.

 

14. Some things will never die a natural death. One of those things is resentment.

 

15. Never miss an opportunity to keep your mouth shut.

God, you're an basket case. I dont never say anything about you but you are just unrelenting. Okay, you think I"m an idiot. Let's just paste our diploma's here shall we. Let's just see who the idiot is. I would bet you anything you could afford to wager that my degree's sweetie far extend yours. Just retire and quit being so mouthy, you really get on my nerves.

And no, I wouldn't leave this site until hell freezes over.

There sweetcakes. Let me know when you'd like to compare degrees since your the one calling me stupid.

I just bet you want, time will tell.

It's funny when one writes a narrative describing their superior intelligence and the narrative itself is full of grammatical, punctuation, and structural errors.

      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. 💜

      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.
