    please pray!

    Hello, I would like to ask everyone to pray for my brother. He had a brain tumor when he was a kid, and they opened him up and couldn't do anything for him. 18 months later the tumor had disappeared, it was a miracle! It left him with hearing loss in his left ear. This was about 18 years ago. This past year he had went almost deaf a couple of times, but his hearing came back (they did a MRI and he was fine). 2 days ago he totally lost all of his hearing and it has not come back. We are praying it will come back. He can't go to work, or drive a car or watch TV and those are the main things that he enjoys. Please pray for him! Thanks so much

    please pray!

    Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers. My brother is starting to hear load sounds (like car doors), and yesterday at church he heard muffled singing, but he can't make anything out. At least it's something, so hopefully it's starting to come back. So, please keep praying!! thanks so much

    Why did you choose the band over GB?

    A year ago I wanted to the the GB surgery, but what I read about it scares me. SOmetimes when I look at my slow weight loss I think to myself "you could have been thin by now if you would have gotten GB" but then I read stories like Jessica O's and the band is the only way for me!!

    I used Dr. de la Garza through litenfree.com. I liked him very much, no complaints, and a good price!!

    please pray!

    Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. There is still no change. He is going to a Dr. on Dec. 20 to see about a implant (I guess Rush Limbaugh had this done and it worked), but I am hoping and praying the hearing will come back on it's own. God gave him a miracle once when he took his brain tumor away, so we're hoping for another! I will keep you all posted. I need to get to bed, I am getting my wisdom teeth out in the morning, 2 of them are impacted, I am really scared!! So say a prayer for me too!! Thanks!

    Confessions of a Snacker...

    I feel the same way sometimes. I don't really enjoy a real meal anymore because I have to eat so slow and it often doesn't feel that good. But chips go down so well!!

    Food in Mexico

    The hospital brought me trays with broth, jello, and juice 3 times a day until I left (I stayed in a hotel inside the hospital).
  17. Bought plane tickets online so I could pick my seats and get a window seat, so my fat could hang over a side that on no one sits. I've always cut out clothes tags incase my tag were to pop outta my shirt and someone would see that big ol' 3X. I also would stop for fast food and throw the wrappers away, or eat my first part and throw those wrappers away, and take the second part home and pretend I didn't eat yet. Everyone has so many things in common!

    Fills from Dr. Pleatman...

    I had my surgery in Mexico and have been to Dr. Pleatman for 2 fills. I don't know what he will give you for your first fill. I had my first fill in Mexico, so I don't know what he would give. But he have me .25 my first time (I already had 1.25), and he gave me .3 last week, and I feel a difference this time. And that price is correct. I drive 3 hours to get to him but it is the cheapest I can find.

    How did you pay for your banding?

    I've had 3 insurance companies this year and none of them cover anything treatment to do with obesity. So, thank God for my grandma who loaned me most of the money and I make monthly payments to her.

    My march for mandatory avatars

    Lisa, I'm really glad you started this thread. It seems that almost every post I read has a picture now. It's really nice to see what everyone looks like!
  23. Sometimes I think I would have the bypass because my band weight loss has been slow which is my fault too for eating the wrong foods sometimes, and the bypass wouldn't allow me to do that, but then then when I read the story of that Jessoca O girl, I don't think I would ever have it done!

    Joke Thread

    a woman places a personal ad in the paper. She says: looking for a man that won't hit me, won't run away and is good in bed. She hears the door bell ring and she answers the door, and there is a man with no arms and no legs. He says "I'm here to answer your personal ad." he then said "I don't have arms so I can't hit you, I don't have legs so I can't run away." She says "well the last one was are you good in bed?" and he says "how do you think I rang the doorbell!"

    I Need Party Game Suggestions

    Hello heres 2 that I know of: first on is everyone passes a double header to each other by holding it between your thighs, and passing it to the next person but you can't touch it with your hands. And the other one is everyone it asked to describe their favorite dessert on a index card without naming the dessert, and then (without knowing while writing) asked to say my name is _____ and when I perform oral sex it's (and then you describe your favorite dessert. example: my name is Ali and when I perform oral sex it's light, creamy, and a little bit nutty!!!
