If you look anywhere else on the board, anything pertaining to P'nut (Photonut) or Delarla, you'll find the stuff I'm referring to. A good place to start (or better yet, save your self and don't bother!) would be in the Rants N' Raves section... http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=23006

But this stuff is ALL over the place.

I think we just know when to shut-up. I also feel the need to express my opinion now and then. The difference is I don't need to have the last word, and I don't need to convert people to my way of thinking.

There, my 2 cents worth!! :rolleyes:

I have been reading outside the Canadian boarders . Wow These people really need to watch tv or go outside or something. :rolleyes:

I have always said I wanted to live in america but obviously they have nothing to do there. :deadhorse:

I like it here. :canada:

We are a peace keeping country!!

Hi green - and anyone else who cares lol --- to answer your questions - I'll have to ask my Mom if she remembers where all my dad's dad is from - I know for sure Alberta - his sister lived there (I think all of her life) but I don't think any of his family is living any longer....I'm in Illinois - outside of Chicago....I'll have to ask my Mom if she remembers why my grandpa moved here - I was young and newly married with a baby when he passed away - I sure wish I had retained/remembered more - in his last years he talked A LOT about his childhood memories, life in Canada, etc....it was my favorite time - listening to him talk about his life, and his favorite saying was "believe you me" - he was the only one in our family who ever said it - then I went to college and a girl said it (she was from Canada too) lol - sorry if this is too much info - it's nice to think about all of this

OT - I think all of the drama comes from just too many people in one place at one time - I honestly think that it could happen here too, if it grew too large to hold all the people - ya know....I'd just ignore it all - do ya think I can become Canadian by proxy? lol Everyone IS much nicer and saner (a word?) here - thanks!

Thanx M, for your interesting post, and no, it wasn't too long. I never realised that "believe you me" was a Canuck thang. As for being an honorary Canadian, well, it seems to me that you have not only got Canadian ancestors, you've got a corner of your heart that is devoted to Canada, too, so why not, eh?

I've never been to Chicago but I've been told by a number of people that it is one of the nicest and most interesting American cities. I would like to go one day in the future. Maybe when I am a size 12....

I checked this stuff out today, and you are right, it is petty, weird, and boring.:notagree

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • 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
