Just started creating a website

[nightingale2u 42]

Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of creating a website for my family and to document my WLS journey. Keep in mind that it is a work in progress and some of the pages are not complete... well... most are not...lol. It was very hard for me to post my picture for all to see but hopefully I'll be able to update that picture in the following months after banding. This is link to my WLS page...

Your sooo cute! I'm 5' 5&1/2" started at 244...we're about the same starting.

Its a great idea to start your websight now. I wouldn't let anyone take pic of me before surgery, I wish I would have.

Good luck with all you pre-op stuff.

Your website is great. I always told myself that i was going to keep a wls journal, but when i ran across my before picture i had to go throw up!!!! I thought that i would save everyone by not posting any pictures! You have nothing to be ashamed of you are beautiful! Keep up the great work with your website! By the way I was 284lbs and only 5'-3" so I almost looked like a big ball with feet!

Hi Guys...

All three of you are tooooo kind! Chantal... thanks for being attracted to me...lol... don't make me have the "let's just be friends" talk with you. *wink* If you went to my hubby's page his handsome face and fit body abounds... it's enough to make a chubby chick feel a little insecure. He's actually feeling insecure about my having the surgery... afraid I'm gonna turn into a wild free spirit and leave him... Silly man.

Vera... You're cute too... (same talk I had with Chantal may apply...hehehehe) I know what you mean about the pictures... my hubby literally had to drag me in fron of the camera... usually he get the MAJOR evil eye anytime the camera even comes close to pointing my way! He kept saying... "honey... you'll be glad that you have these later." I'm not sure about the "glad" part... but it will be nice to have a comparison. Right now... they make me want to hurl.

Speaking of hurling... Hi Angela! (o: I guess from what you said looking at your before pictures could really be a weight-loss system all on it's own! I'm still giggling about the "ball with feet" comment... sounds like something I wouls say about myself... cept my decription lastnight to my husband was this... "If you put a diaper on me and yanked it up my butt... I'd look like a Sumo (sp) wrestler.

Thanks again ladies...

Darcy,

Checked out your little nest...what a cute website! Great idea...

I think your beautiful...your husband is handsome and your daughter is a doll!

Hey...know any sucessful single guys?

[nightingale2u 42]

Dang Jen... I only know one and I'm married to him!!! (O: My ex-husband is still single (we've been divorced for 8 yrs) but I really wouldn't recommend him...hehehehe. Hang in there girl... I kissed a lot of frogs during that eight years but my prince didn't come along until July 2002... he was worth the wait! :banana

Single girl lesson for today... Being alone is tough but not nearly as tough as spending everyday with a butthead. :eek

Thanks to you too for the kind words about my flabulous pictures...

Hi all,

Night told me about this site so thought I would check it out!

Darcy...You look SO CUTE. Your tummy looks wee girlfriend!!! Very brave of you to document this, kudos!!!

I hope this post goes through, not too swift with computer stuff. I am just peeking around for info on lap band.

Take care all!

[nightingale2u 42]

Hiya Cakes!

I'm so glad you found the site! Everyone here is very friendly and helpful and there is lots of good information in past posts. If you haven't already... you should go to the introduction forum and tell the folks here a bit about yourself. I mean... I know how wonderful and funny and brilliant you are... hehehehehe. Good luck gathering info on the banding and I hope that some of the sites I mentioned help you feel more comfortable about the procedure and closer to a decision that brings you peace of mind.... Love ya girl...

((((hugs))))

Hey Chantal... You have a great sense of humor too! It's kind of my feeling that being overweight forces a person to develop other facets of their personality in order to draw attention away from the "weight". It seems like it is also a characteristic that we make fun of ourselves to beat others to the punch... whatever it is... those that have had weight challenges seem to be the the greatest people I've been blessed to have known. Just imagine all of our personalities in thin bodies... WOW... watch out world.

You are cute!! I can't see the rest of the family....can't find them. Anywho.....keep smiling!!

[nightingale2u 42]

Thanks Kelly! I just started the website so still will be adding more pictures of family on the other pages... if you hit the "home" button link and then go down to the list of pages on that home page... you click on the bird or the nest to see the pages... my hubby is on the fishy fishy page and my daughter's pic is on Em's LiL Corner.

Take Care...
