I found it. It is under General Discussion. It is a poll. It is called Be Honest and it has your name as the one that started it. It also has a post with your name on the first page about the second or third post. I will not say what all it says. You need to reread it though. Now, I have proven it. I am now going to bed.

I already told you the thread I thought I read it under. That is more proof than you have given me on these people that do not want me to PM them. If I only have two people that do not want me to PM them that doesn't seem too bad to me. The tread was called Be Honest. I am trying to find it. I also said I do not want to fight with you anymore. If it was not posted by you then as I said I stand corrected. It was my mistake. One of the best things about me is honesty. I haven't seen you post any proof that I have been nasty to anyone. I am still waiting for the post that I have been nasty to other people. I truly do not understand your anger or many of your posts. I am sorry you feel so strongly. I am going to bed and I did not read your post. You sent two. The first one I deleted. The second one came up on my emails as they all do and it said not to pm you anymore so I didn't. I think one thing that is strange is that all of us are not able to know who we are so why would I need to lie. I will never meet you or any of these people on this site. I am going to bed. You exhaust me. I will try my best to not respond to you anymore in any negative way. You post a lot and are on many threads so it is hard to avoid you but I will try my best to stay out of your way.

Bubblebutt, I am trying one last time to straighten this out. Under Be HOnest thread I thought you asked if anyone has done their own fills. I thought you said you had twice. If I read that wrong I stand corrected. I do not understand you. I do not understand why you can't say the same type of statement with less bluntness and sarcasim, but once again I have not been sending nasty PM's to anyone other than you. I am sure one of the monitors can check that. Names some names of people I have sent nasty PMs to. I have saved everyone of my PMs I have sent out. Simply because my box is not close to being full. Another thing, I did PM you with my thoughts as I was not going to say things like that so everyone could see. When you ask me to not PM you anymore I did not. I did not read your other PM as I felt it would be hateful and I did not want to have it roll around in my head that night. I deleted it the next day without reading it. I do not want to fight with you anymore. Call me weak or whatever you want but I do tend to think about it more than I like.

WOW, Bubble you get down and dirty. That statement is so untrue. I have not PM many people at all. Lord, I just learned how to do it. I sure have not PMed anyone anything nasty. I PM you twice and only twice and told you I thought you were rude. I also think you must be unhappy. Copy it and put it on the site so everyone can see what I wrote you. In fact, have everyone you have been comparing notes with and have them copy and paste also. I would like to see them myself. Once again, I have not been rude to anyone but you. You should be able to take it because you sure dish it out. Now, copy and paste and put them up there.

Bubble, All sarcaism and anger side for a minute, do you ever feel bad about some of the things you say to people on this site. I do.
-
Yes, Transformer that is exactly what I was saying. Also, I was being sarcastic about us being above everyone else. My experience has been quite the opposite of being looked up to. Notice the break... Denise, I did not mean anything bad. I promise. Normally I am a very nice person. I am not a fighter by nature but will not back down when my feathers are ruffled. That came from my grandmother, bless her heart. I am trying to deal with sarcasim on these threads. Thought I would try it. It is not fun for me. I probably have made the mistakes you have noticed and I did not make them intentionally as I would bet is the case for many. When I type I do not want to have to be perfect on this site. I sometimes type fast and make mistakes. I want to be forgiven and not constantly judged. Sometimes when I enter these threads I do not know what they are going to be about as the title does not give the whole idea away. I am a little surprised over some of the things I read. When I first joined I was hesitant to post and ask questions. Now I have read some complaints about newbies. I am sure I made some of the mistakes in that area also. I have stopped asking questions and try to figure it out. If I don't figure it out by looking for the answers I do without the answer. Sorry if I upset you.

I kind of figured you would be the first to send your sarcasim. I also kind of enjoyed it. (smile) You get worked up easily. Take a chill pill bubble.

It is unbelieveable the things I read on this site. I am a teacher and I guess we teachers are a little above the rest of the world as we learn to read anything. We grade thousands of papers a year written in many different forms. Your children would fail if we did not figure out how to do this.
-
What do you hate most about teachers? I am a teacher. I am tired of parents complaining. You cannot please all the parents in your class. Why are so many people down on teachers and why do you get angry with the teacher before you even find out the whole story? You can answer if you choose. List what you hate about teachers, please use reason. List what you love about teachers, if you do. __________________

As I was reading different posts tonight I noticed some responses made me feel good and some stirred up bad feelings. it got me to thinking about how people make us feel. I have always liked nice people, people that seem to really care and want to help in even the simpliest way. I don't like people that seem to have an opinion and only theirs seems to be important. I don't like people that are negative or seem to come at me with strong statements. I like people to approach me kindly and show interest in me. I don't like "Know it alls" unless they really know. I love intelligent people. I enjoy confident people, yet they are humble. I love people that listen, really listen.

Do I eat when I am not hungry? Oh yeah! I figure that's how I got here.

Am I The Only Real Overeater In This Forum??
SueSue replied to rebandit's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I want to add something I think may be important. When my son was a baby he would stop eating and want down from his high chair. When my daughter was a baby I would put her down from the highchair and she would go around the table to people still sitting there and open her mouth for more food. She was about 15 months old. My son is 25 now and never has had a battle with food. My daughter does and constantly fights the urge to want to eat. I think it has to be something to do with genes. When I was a teenager I did not have a weight problem but I grew up in an age where fast food restaurants were not around the corner. My mom cooked and I liked some things, some I did not. It was unheard of to go fix something else if you didn't like what was for supper. In fact, I never thought of that. So food was not temping all the time. I do remember I loved school lunches and have not turned my nose up to much of anything my whole life. My son is very fussy about what he will eat and my daughter is like me, she loves just about everything. I wonder if these things have anything to do with being overweight. -
Am I The Only Real Overeater In This Forum??
SueSue replied to rebandit's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
When I was 17 my friend and I each bought a candy bar. We both weighed about 125. 3 days later she still had about 2/3rd's of hers. Mine was gone that same day!!!! I think I should of realized then I was going to have a problem. Each year of my life I gained a little more until I became diabetic. I stayed about 180 for several years then had to go on insulin and put on 40 lbs. in a year and a half. Talk about wanting to eat then. I could eat a 12 inch sub and want to get again in an hour. I have always enjoyed eating. -
I think most of you are younger than I am but I do worry a bit about how my face and neck will look. My stomach too. I did this surgery mostly because I am diabetic. I was staying out of control too much and my friend said the surgery cured diabeties sometimes. I am trying to remember that. I did not feel I had a choice. Get the surgery and live longer or die early.

For VG 10 cc Bandsters ONLY
SueSue replied to BeacheeGirl's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have the 10ccVg band. It is also the only band my doctor uses. My first fill was 4.9. second fill 1cc. For some reason I got light headed and felt sick so he stopped. Third 1.6 ccs. Lots of foods are getting stuck, my fault. Still can eat more than I need. Just ate a full bun size hot dog. I only stop because I know I need to, not because I am full. I am still on insulin so doc said he was afraid I would have a hard time losing. I lost weight after surgery rapidly and then it has slowed down greatly since then. I am still trying eat right and not get discouraged. -
Okay I have had my third fill and not enough restriction. My first fill wa 4.9 ccs, 2nd was 1 more cc. I got light headed and sick to my stomach for some reason so we stopped at 1. The third fill was 1.6 more. that is 7 and one half cc's. What does it take? I am beginning to wonder if that is possible. I do not know my band size. I have asked twice and I did not get an answer either time. I ate a 6 inch sub from Subway and a bowl of vegetable soup and then found myself back in the kitchen eating a bowl of flavored oatmeal tonight. I know the band is there because I sometimes forget to chew and food gets slightly stuck. I am a little discouraged tonight. All I want to do is eat.

Marposia, Very well said. You can tell you have been around the school. You understand it well.

..people changing..based on 1/2 other's opinions, it isn't right!!!
SueSue replied to bandster_1007's topic in Rants & Raves
I agree Bandster, especially withe the healthy debate. I tried to have one on a thread and WOW I was bashed by a couple of people. I can take it but my respect for them went down considerably. I now notice also how negative they are in many of their posts. I like healthy debates, not name calling and mud slinging. Kinda takes the fun out of the debate. -
Voo, I like honest people too. Very important to me and hard to fine!! I like direct people also. I love nice people as i said but only if it is genuine, not if they are only nice to your face and someone else other times.

71 here today in Arkansas which is a bit unusual but then we have weird weather here. I miss the snow. We get very, very little.

What are the stars and other symbols under the rating heading on the main page?

What are the stars under ratings and I saw a blue check mark.....I think.

How do you feel about teachers? Have you had any good or bad experiences? Tell us. This thread was started by a teacher and I would like to hear your story.
-
Sorry, I was asked to put up a new thread about this and I thought more people would see it here.
-
One more thing and then I will be quiet. I started this post because I want to learn. I want to understand you, the parent. I guess I do not want to leave my profession yet. I still get a lot of pleasure from my students and teaching them. I am afraid I will miss them very much and regret leaving. I do not teach for the pay check. I have a husband with his own business. I guess I am hoping this will help me become a more tolerant teacher and whether you believe it or not I want that. P.S. When you want people to really listen, lighten your tone.
