Age specific support group NOT specific anymore

Yup this is what a 60 yr old acts likes. Imagine all the old(er) people in the world giving the finger and texting:tt1: lol:crying: :thumbup:
You must not know the same old(er) people that I do because the ones I know would give someone the finger quick if they thought someone needed it. I'm 46 and have given it a time or two myself. Not saying it's right but it happens to the best of us sometimes.

Long long long time ago ladies were force to marry men 3x there age and have kids and all that happend when that was consider legal,

Time changes, and new laws are formed. So does that still mean you are more experience then a lady who is 90 yrs old who was force to get married and have kids at 15 Compare to a person who is 17 and pregnant with their 2nd child in 2009. i really don't think its the same

If it was still politically correct to have kids at ages 15 14 be married by a man 3x your age will that still mean you have more experience, or are you just living your life???

I understand people goes through things that people shouldn't go through in their age group but what about when certain things were allow by law and people just lived life like that thinking it was the way of life

:thumbup:(And I think it is great that you were able to handle your business with out depending on someone to help you):tt1:

Life experience does make a hugh difference. Only those who have lived a sheltered life would say it didn't. Some are way beyound their years. You never know what someone has had to face and deal with, Some 20yr olds have had to grow up very fast. I myself was married off at 15 and had my first child at 17, and by the time I was 21 I found myself with 3 children divorced. Supporting them on my own(no welfare, no chld supp) working and going to school so trust me when I say I was way beyond my young years. Remember, you can't judge a book by it's cover.

I have no problem figuring it out. I too was married at the age of 15 and had a baby at 17. The problem is the arrogance.
I understand that but some people are just harder then others if life has beatin um down enough.Not everyone is going to react the same way no matter what the age is.

He wasn't 3x my age he was 17. I don't know how your state is but in mine you can still marry young as long as you have a parent sign. And my choice was foster care or marrage, I took the marrage for reasons I don't care to share.

I was not forced to marry young. I was just "wise beyond my years due to life experience"

In her defense I really like Blaze and she talks with a group of us(old ladies) on another thread and she's quite mature. She is the youngest in our group and always has good advice and something positive to say. I think she just got pissed and she's just a blunt person. Maybe I'm different but I have much more respect for someone who speaks their mind then someone who just says what they think you want to hear because I'm blunt and sometimes even my own friends get their feelings hurt, I don't intend on doing it but it does happen.

And that's fine, I was and it's ok it's what made me grow up fast. No regrets, I don't have time for them.

I was not talking about you (i was giving an example) I dont know your situation and its none of my concern

like I said prior to your response everything you go through just make you wiser in certain areas of life (when i say "you" im talking in general)

By having kids young and getting marry young i do believe you become wiser but wiser then people in your age group and younger not more wiser then someone in thier 60's ( just using 60's for a reference)

He wasn't 3x my age he was 17. I don't know how youe state is but in mine you can still marry young as long as you have a parent sign. And my choice was foster care or marrage, I took the marrage for reasons I don't care to share.

blunt person or not everyone on here stated their opposition and no one got mad and said f you. we all probably got aggravated cause different points are being made but cmon why get mad at a POST :thumbup:

If someone could give their veiws and they get mad when someone else expresses that they dont agree with their veiws, what is the point of getting mad maybe once again i have to look in the dictionary.:thumbup:

There shouldnt be any hard feelings especially in this SPECIFIC FORUM that deals with : LBT Rants and Raves *** Off-Topic DEBATE AREA *** Want debate? Get it here. Gripe, complain, moan, fight, rant and rave. Enter at your own risk!:tt1:

I mean it says it all in the heading.. alot of forums on here in this particular section of LBT i dont agree with but i dont get mad and curse i just express my opinion and thats That:smile2:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
