BLUE EYED GIRL

was just wondering if anyone saw today tonight[news]on the dangers of daylight savings[i didnt see it sorry]was it a good case against daylight savings[smile]

got my pool swimming season ticket yesterday,now turning back now[i better not anyway]

i havent probably got as meany possitive comments due to not haveing the band as long as others and not haveing as much weight lost yet.... but i used to battle at night to be able to sleep[backpain/shoulders]and i also couldnt seem to talk on the phone without being out of breath,people would think that i had been outside running[silly people,smile]anyway im sleeping well and am not puffed to the same extent anymore,and yes,i do belive the sex life does get better[smile]

hi,i think its best to follow your drs advice,mine said treat it as if i had just had the band put in.e.g optifast/tonyferguson/clear soup ect.....for around 2/3 days

my band holds 10 ml,i have 3 1/2 ml currently,i have no restriction over 2 fills[which in time is close to 3mths]i tend to feel a larger fill would be good to get some restriction,then put in smaller ones so as not to cause problems,but i may only have this opinion now due to how im feeling,i geuss ,espeacialy if your out of town,maybe its slower/gradualy incase of complication?

so sorry,not sure what happend,must have missed the bit where you said you have had it removed[sorry,must be a bit slow...]glad you are happy with you decision,it would be interesting to see how your weight does go 12mths down the track.

i wish my fill docter was as supporting as yours,im happy for you that you have that support:biggrin1:

hi loreen,so sorry to hear you are unhappy,chicke is right thuogh,you can still eat and be healthy,i wonderd if your sister has a weight problem[sorry,dont mean to be rude by asking that,but maybe that is why she hasnt been able to support you]i dont have much fluid in my band yet,but theres no way i would want it tacken out,once i get the weight of,i never want to go back to putting it on again,but we are all differant.so i hope life works out how you would like it to,but before you remove the band,maybe think about the reasons why you chose to have the operation in the first place.i just want you to be happy with your life,wich you ovbiously are not.

im so sorry to hear of your loss,your mother in law sounds like mine[self obsorbed,that they are the only ones who have feelings/and tend to think that they are better than anyone else.glad to hear your side is more supportive,im not sure our husbands/wifes know how to help us at times when it comes to there parents,i think they can be just as shoked as us.my husbands mum gave me a dog bowl for my 30th bday comming up,i was so insulted/i dont evan have a dog anymore/glad to see she thinks so highly of me,and i know we shouldnt compare to others in the family,however a lot of care goes into gift giveing to other family members,she could have evan got reduced hand creams that would have been more personal.but i should be used to it,at least when i gift give/even when i cant afford it,i try to get people things that i think they would like.

it doesnt embarass me weather people make comments about my weight or if they dont[i often find if you go around saying that your trying to lose weight,people just tend to say things like,oh yeah,i can see you have lost it in your face,when really they cant tell at all,i get anoyed at these people/i dont tell people im loseing weight/or trying to,then when someone comments that i have lost,then i know that they are genuine.and yes,i find it nice to get complimeants,dont most people?

thankyou so much for that info[i dont always understand computer jargan ect....thanks]

just in regards to bathers,im wanting to go swimming at our local pool and get into doing laps again,i do whear bathers,but i always feel bad about myself[getting into the pool fast so people dont look at me,then getting out fast and putting a towel around me] i know it really is probably just in my head how i think people look at me]so im going to try and not worry about how other people look or act towards me,thats my challenge.hope you enjoy your holliday,and im sure i will start enjoying the pool.gail:o

im with denise 822[what is a blogs?is it like what we reply,or a post?]scary,maybe i have a bad blog and dont know about it yet he he heeee:eyebrows:

hello,glad your home safe,was just wondering when you asked if anyone else had a hieta hernia[i havent]what exactly that was? im glad you are recovering well,i stressed when i went in for my op/fear the worst/but i know god loves me and whatever happens is in his hands,he knows begining to end.i think at times in our busy lives,we dont always praise god for all the little things[we often tend to ask for more rather than thankfull for what we have]we are very blessed to have a loveing father.i think some non believers cant comprehend how great gods love and power is,that if we come to him in prayer,no matter what we have done,he loves and forgives,and to really understand gods sacrafice so we can be forgiven.[i dont feel if i only had 1 son if i could have crucifyd him to take on the words sin,i dont belive any one could,but its gods plan/purpose]thankyou jesus for dieing on the cross for me and gods children.

i am mortified some one would send that to you or anybody for that manner,how rude and pathetic on there part,its no wonder you have been finding it hard lately,the only bit i will agree on is the skinny comment in a positive light,it must be nice to be slimmer,i would be thrilled if it was me[they must be very envious of you to go to so much trouble trying to hurt and put you down ,and no dout they have probably done it to other people.:think

hello,im gail,what a great thread for christians to share with oneanother,i find it upsetting and frustrating people in there threads/messages who use god or missionaries in a negative way,i dont feel these people have made personal commitmeant to follow christ,wich to me,is the only way[to accept christ into our hearts to belive in him and the sacrifice made for all of us,to repeant our sins]im in w.a,and we have just started going to the church of christ in york,so as we live around an hour from there,it takes awhile to make new friends.i finde it hard to stick to things with the lapband,i just keep praying god will give me the strengh and support i need to be where i want to be.thanks.gail;)

thanks,thought it may have been confuseing,great to hear a guys view point[thats important how they see women,arfter all,dont we all want to feel on top of the world[smile]:clap2::clap2:

sorry,my response was to chickie[as meaning not sure how to responde to last message[just so no one is offended]

mmmmmm.not sure how to reply to that one[not meaning to be hurtfull,but i did find with the olsen twins to appear boney.]but as long as your happy and there happy,people shouldnt interfear.

sorry,you just said that,we must have both replied at the same time

yeah,i belive your correct,name calling of any sort is very harmfull,do you think maybe because the obesity in the population is riseing/that it makes people look slimmer,who are not over weight[hope that makes sense]it also depends on your weight to your height e.g amazingly to my benifit,my weight carrys well over my body,people are surprised i can weigh as much as i do because i dont look as big?[that was when i was at my heaviest at 130 kgs] you should be very proud of yourself,i know i would be,and im glad to see your pics still up:oi know i say that you shouldnt let peoples nasty comments get to you,but i know they do and that they still hurt,shame on nasty people[and i know im not always the most polite person sometimes,espeialy when i get upset/cross ect.....]but,over the years i have had to put up with verbal abuse and i never stod up for myself so not to upset other people,but then you go away upset and insane,sorry,have had a few hard yrs]and getting of the subject.....sorry

i geuss they are just concerned over someone slim due to health?but i have always thought jen aniston was gorgeous,but i do think they are to hard on celebraties/i would take it as a complimeant if someone said i was to skinny[due to haveing a weight problem.my husbands family are harsh to me about my weight,im ether to fat or to skinny,i have just had to learn you cant please every one in life,just be true to yourself.i would have thought it hurts more to have rude people make comments about you been fat than the other way around[maybe its because im still overweight?]

a true christian wouldnt do that in the first place ninna,do you read your bible?doesnt sound like it!

wow,well said,even thuogh im not surposed to be touching on this subject again due to certain people winding my clock[smile,i can get a bit bitchy at times,so its safer i stay of some times],i even think with us in our own homes,let burgulars in and steal and murder,the law doesnt help the victims,they shake the criminals hand,much to ninnas happyness.who cares about the victims..........
