Something is wrong with Christmas



Recommended Posts

Well said, Elena. You express yourself so beautifully. My friend Byron Katie, has a saying that really resonates with me, and it is:

DEFENSE IS THE FIRST ACT OF WAR.

I send you love and joy on this holiday and everyday.

Lisa

Oh Lisa, thank you so much! likewise, may your holidays be filled with happiness and health and always!

I can't help but notice that, with all the talk of how Christmas is about being loving and kind, this thread seems to be largely about being Bitter towards Tits for being Bitter. (Projection anyone?)

Again, if it's so easy, can we do it? I expect Tits to not be bitter, yet I am bitter towards Tits? I need to keep my own side of the street clean (bitter free) before I point the finger at someone else, and believe me, THAT is a full time job. We are all just doing our best.

Projection my butt! You might want to do a quick check of her recent posts and not just on this thread. She's spreading her joy to many other threads and people are complaining there as well. She slipped up yesterday, got caught making claims of a rape that didn't happen. In trying to pass judgment on those of us that had surgery in Mexico and an attempt to scare the newbies away she lied about rape. Is that okay in your book? Or is just bitterness and treating others poorly okay? So perhaps sitting in judgment of us, you might want to do a bit of research. However, she does need someone on her side, thus far you are it.

So tell you what, you watch your side of the street, I'll watch mine. I was her target yesterday until she slipped up and made a butt of herself. That's when things changed. It's easy to sit and point fingers at others, perhaps while you are watching your side of the street you check out the rest of her posts from the last few days.

And yesssss, we know we know that byron katie is your buddy. But the real question is ... do you have any opinions of your own? One that doesn't come from byron katie? I mean honestly, one might wonder if byron katie is the only reason you post here.

WOW! I didn't know, I apoplogize, I went strictly by what she said in this thread and I believed her..., and even felt bad that I was a little harsh when I tried to explain and defended myself..... I'm sorry that she targeted you and others yesterday in other threads... I'm very sorry , I will definitely do more research next time and well, I think I'm a little naive sometimes....

You know, by behaving that way she hurts others, but she is hurting herself too... I hope she realizes that..It's sad. Thank you for the info.

With all due respect, I didn't feel I was projecting a thing - other than voicing my disgust in what I perceived to be the rants of an agry individual on EVERY thread I encountered. I come here for support, not to read continuous hate filled speach at every corner (her street - not mine).

You can’t believe anything BubbleButt says because she doesn’t know anything. Nothing. To insinuate I wasn't raped in Mexico is really sick and twisted. Ask yourself, "Hey, how does Wasabubble know this? Do they know each other?" Once you think about the answers, it should sink in that she knows nothing about me. Nothing, and I mean nothing. This was a Christmas thread that stomped on, but for her to drag in lies, gossip and rumors is sadder than my bitterness. What kind of weirdo drags crap from thread to thread if it doesn’t have anything to do with the topic? Her goal is to spread lies like a cancer. Some times I need to be reminded that bitterness breeds bitterness, and not one person here is any better than me for wanting the last stab at me. However, I don't know who the hell this BubbleAss is other than an effen weirdo that doesn't know the difference between reality and bologna.

Hey, you said if we caught you in a lie you would log off and leave forever. We caught you in more than one.

I guess leaving was just another lie. ;)

You said... "my bitterness", so obviously you admit that you are bitter... that's a good thing....

THis is how I feel, it's not about believing what Wassa says or not just because you are telling me not to.... I believed that you were hurt at first, but I personally went and read all your posts, because I wanted to know about you for myself, not because Wassa said anything... and I found that mostly your posts are very bitter, if not all.. I also found many contradictions, which indicate lies... and even on this particular post, you keep insulting and keep being extremely bitter and accusatory, so that tells me that's how you are... and that unfortunately I can't trust you anymore.... or believe everything you have said... I'm sorry...

Hey, I did try .... actually I believed you at first like I said, but your attitude, posts and words are just too much, too bad, too nasty...

I don't think anybody here wants to have the last stab at you, listen to yourself! that's crazy! re-read all the posts that have been directed to you on this thread, you are wrong, and wrong again, I'm only telling you this for your own sake, you used words that are hateful, accusing others of being weird and being like cancer, please re-consider your attitude.... take a brake, think and think some more.... do you realize that mostly everyone is telling you that your attitude is wrong? do you think that everybody is crazy and you are the only one that is right? use common sense...

Bitter? Hardly, I laugh at fools who Celebrate a pregnant virgin. Santa Clause, Easter Bunny, aliens, pregnant virgins. It's obvious why the National Enquirer stays in business when grown ups forget to grow up. Can people actually say "pregnant virgin" without laughing? If you don't want negative people spitting on your Christmas post, why not change the title to something more festive that attracts only those who care to spread Christmas joy? The "controversy welcome" sign was on the opened door- I just wandered in looking for liquor.

If I'm a fool for believing in a pregnant virgin, then color me foolish if it pleases you. I will never stop believing in the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, nor am I ever going to sit down and be quiet about it either. You don't have to believe in what I do, Jesus gave you that choice. Jesus was mocked, and as a Christian I expect nothing less. But I'll never let anyone take away the warmth, peace, and love that only someone who accepts the Holy Spirit into their lives can understand. Of course you think it's foolish . . . like a blind man cannot describe the beauty of a rainbow, you can't understand the true meaning of Christmas. This was the choice you made, in which you were free to do. Please allow me the freedom to believe as I do.

Whatever your beliefs, cherish them, as I do mine. I realize we are all different. I really wish we could embrace our differences instead of throwing rocks at one another. It pleases me to hear that some find joy in Christmas, even if they don't believe in the religion behind it. Does anyone really need to step on someone else's beliefs? Does it make you feel better?

I will keep you in my prayers. Jesus gave so much yet He asks so little of me. To share His everlasting love is all He ever really asked. I can do that, regardless of beliefs. I am not better nor above anyone. Indeed, as a Christian, I am the least of all.

Peace.

Thank you very much for your post..

I don't know if there are any beliefs of any kind, religious or not, or even in oneself that someone with so much bitterness could cherish...

Someone being bitter about something, and that same person being able to cherish some belief, totally unrelated and happens all the time. E.g., Titslereaux cherishes her belief that a pregnant virgin is ridiculous. "Cherish"ing something that goes against your personal beliefs may not seem to fit the verb, but for those who have the belief it does.

hhhhhmmmmmmm, Maybe so...., well hopefully it will satisfy her to cherish her belief on the pregnant virgin being ridiculous, I'm still not sure how is that a "belief", but what do I know, if it is, then good for her, something is better than nothing, right?;)

      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. 💜

      2. Selina333

        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!

      3. Doughgurl

        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. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      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. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        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!
