I hear that getting hosed by a fairy is a good thing

By the way, this is my last post in this webstie ever.

OH!! :ohmy: :huh2: :lightbulb: i just loooooove it when i see this kind of post!! ...and you all know why! LOL

Thank goodness for the posts. Thank you for warning me about the productive burps, excessive farts,eating too much and sliming. Thank you for the rules of thumb on protein, chewing gum and water hydration. Thank you for the successes on clothing, exercise and emotions of accomplishment. Thank you for being there just to say hang in there or congrats on your band. This site is the second best thing to happen to me. The first is my lapband. Thank you to all...:ohmy:

Quit your bitchen.

But, if you are farting rainbows, then maybe you should get some of that Just A Drop stuff...I heard that's good for stuff like that.

:ohmy:

I'll be damned, people really are farting rainbows.

Really wanna know?

I google image searched for 'rainbow farts'. Hah!

The people who really want to commit suicide to end their lives (not talking about the ones who commit suicide to hurt someone else) aren't the ones who call a hotline and announce they're going to jump, or make a big dramatic scene about it. That would give someone the oppourtinty to intervene, and they don't want that. They're the ones who slip away unnoticed, never to be heard from again. The people who make the big scene are the ones who want to be talked out of it.

I liken this to "announcements" of people leaving a board. If someone really wants to leave, why don't they just slip away? Why even announce it? Are you hoping people try to talk you out of it? The ones who really want to leave aren't the ones who post "This is my last post" because -- who cares? Why aren't you just gone already? (Maybe the answer is "there's still more attention to gather.")

Usually if someone announces they're leaving, they're not leaving. I posted this once long ago to someone else dramatically announcing they were leaving, and she posted to argue with me -- that she was indeed leaving. But umm... you're still here disagreeing with me, even though your last post was like 3 posts ago... and there you are again...

Whatever the case, if you find a resource valuable, then it's a shame you let anyone have enough power over you to make you leave.

I have to admit I was alot more confident about having the lap band befroe I came to this sight! The good thing about that is it knocked me off my high horse..just a little..and really made me think this thru..Really think this thru...write down more questions for my dr. and also ask questions here without sounding entirly stupid...I am glad to hear someone swallowed bubblegum by the way...not glad for her but now I know who I will contact when it happens to me...lol...cause stuff like that happens to me and I want to know that I can come on here and post with out being made to feel like a moron..you may think huh...she's a moron...but you dont anwser me that way...ya know when your fat people already treat you that way..last thing you need is other fat girls on their way to being skinney treating you that way...gosh ...dont forget to be humble...if this sight freaked you out... there are other sites out there and also maybe you need to think it thru a little more...I know you say you wont be back but I kow you will at least be back to read the responses and if not you.. others will, bitchin..complaing...whining...I am in for the long haul..I have to be, I have to know there is a glimmer of hope out there that some day I will sit down and have less than three rolls and I will be able to cross my legs like a lady and wear a sexy dress...so you see I will put up with the bitchin and whining because I know I will be doing it too and I also know that the people who respond wont treat me like that dumb fat girl!!!

I think it's good - even critical - for people to know both sides. My surgeon never really told me the "bad". If it weren't for this site, I'd have had no idea what was happening when I had my first PB, and probably would have ended up in an ambulance/ER. I would also think that being able to eat chicken and pasta means there's something wrong, because everytime I would go in for a fill that's what he would ask -- can you eat chicken? Can you eat pasta? (Umm, SHOULD I not be able to, because I can...)

I don't like surprises. I like to know exactly what I'm getting into, as medical staff that has cared for me can attest to. If it's bad, who cares, I can deal with it, but I need to know it can happen. If it's going to hurt, tell me, but tell me how long it's going to take you to finish, if the pain will linger, etc.

I would not have gotten a well-rounded picture of the band had I just listened to the medical resources.
