Facebook challenge...During this couple of weeks before Easter, I am out to prove that my friends will repost, I hope I am right!!! Easter is not about bunnies and chocolate eggs. Let's lift up God's name and make a statement!! When Jesus died on the cross he was thinking of You and Me. If you are not ashamed to call Jesus Christ your savior, copy and repost. I'm not ashamed!

We all have at least 60 friends on facebook; but when it comes to needing someone to talk to, how many will actually be there for you? I can guarantee you, not even 15 of your facebook friends will. If you would be there for me, set this as your status & see how many of us there for you!!! (i just did it for one of my friends)... hmmm lets try It out & see!♥

Band vs. Sleeve? Why did you pick band?
chellietaz replied to Rainydayz's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I am newly banded; I get my first adjustment in the morning. But for me, I liked that if needed the band can be reversed/removed. And with the sleeve, well it was just too permanent. it just scared me to know it could not be undone if needed. and the band is soo common now. They know so much more about it....I don't know, the sleeve just scared me to death!!!!!!!!!! And the healing time and expense is so much better than the sleeve. I don't know if my Ins would have paid for it or not.... Just do ALL the research and do what is right or feels right for YOU! -
Pre-Surgery Jitters - I need some calming words from people who care..............
chellietaz replied to NJBandit's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It is only natural for you to have the jitters....your are human. But just think of it as an investment in yourself. I am a newbie to all of this myself. My surgery was 2/24/11and I go in for my first adjustment on Monday 4/4/11, I am a bit nervous about it but I am ready for the next step in my journey to the new and healthier me. You should still be able to enjoy foods just not at the same quantities. I too love food and I am always having to put myself in check and look at the big picture. I want to look and feel better, I want to become a healthier person for me and my family....I want to live a long and happy life and that simply was not going to happen with me being so obese. I don't know if my words have helped you at all, I hope they have. But don't be so rough on yourself...easy does it...just put one foot in front of the other you will do just fine and you will be fine...I have all the faith in the world in you, in us. It is not easy being over weight....remember, we did not become overweight over night, it happened over time and over time we will learn new and healthier habits together Best of luck to you!!

Hi, My name is Michelle.I am 42yrs old, newly single and I have two grown children. I have wanted to get Lap-Band for several years. Life kept getting in my way. Now, that I no longer have to deal with a husband and children I have decided it is me time. I have been over-weight most of my life. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes two years ago and recently my doctor has advised my cholesterol is starting to rise. I also have asthma and sleep Apnea. As you can see I have many health concerns and my quality of life is really sad. Lap-Band is something I have been looking into for many many years...I have a friend at work that had the surgery little over a year ago and she has lost over 100 lbs. She has really been a great go to person with all my many questions. I just had my surgery Thursday morning (2/24/11). I am looking forward to the journey ahead...I know it will require alot of work on my part. But....I AM READY! I have a question....I am still on the liquid diet. Is the gas normal? How long does it last...or is this something I have to deal with from now on? I know I had alot of gas right after surgery, and I see now why they stressed the Gas-X so much. But will it go away? Is it also normal to feel no energy...my friend said I needed to start the multi-vitamins now as well as the Calcuim.

Damn!! Never ending laundry around here. In the past 3 days done 12 loads of laundry. But, I also washed all my blankets and my bedspread and the bathrm rugs but that is still a shyt load of laundry!
-
Ok, time for a break! I have done 4 laods of laundry (so far, still have few more loads to do), done the dises, cleaned my bathroom (not touching the kid bathrm...uk)which intails wiping down the vanity, sweeping and mopping (daughter had to make fresh mop water for me though, can't lift anything right now) cleaned the toilet...shooo I need to sit down for a minute.

Thanks for the advice; I am feeling so much better today. I have been taking my Vitamins (gotta cut them in half and take them one at a time though) and it has made a world of difference. I feel "normal"today" actually moving around more today. Stupid question; how do you get the ticker on your page. I have tired almost everything and it just is not working...

I am feeling better today! I have alot of laundry to do, but I am gonna take it slow...I still have several days off from work to get it all done so there is no hurry to have it all done today.
