Hey fellow Canucks,

I just want to say thank you!!! I am so happy that we live up to our Canadian reputation and that we are all peaceful and get along and none of our threads result in the juvenile crap that has occurred in some other threads.

I would expect nothing less from fellow Canadians.

I like LBT....but I LOVE our Canuck thread.

Thank you all for being you and for being true, north, strong and free!

I was thinking that our relatively low numbers (as compared to the U.S.) makes for a cosy chatroom, and yet we have all the resources of the boys and grrls in the big sand box next door. It's kinda like real life, eh?

Actually, Jack, I think you are. I think that you were supposed to be south lower British Columbia. (I'd give you a wink but I opted for the quick reply, eh.)

when my mom was crossing into the US border (couple of years ago) she showed her Canuck passport. Of course, the passport indicated that she was born in NewWestminster British Columbia. The border guard started giving her a tough time...asking her why she was in possession of a Canadian passport if she was born in British Columiba (thinking it was the UK). Oh veeeey!

(not to mention you can be born out of the country and still have a Cdn passport).

When I was a kid, I thought where you were born determined what you looked liked. I called a kid a liar when she told me her father was born in Japan because he didn't look Japanese!

Hi all - I figure since my grandfather is from Canada - and my grandparents on my mom's side were both born in Canada - I might check in and get a feel for what 'silence' and 'playing nice' means lol -- good to know people can get along somewhere in this world of ours - **waves**

Hello Fellow Canadians:

Great to know that civil chat does exist here......and not a lot of time need be wasted reading loads of repetitive crap.

So far, can anyone manage to eat sashimi with full restriction?

Hubby and I haven't had a day off since May and will be spending a few days in Toronto next week....I love sushi and sashimi but not sure if I will be able to manage it.

Sounds like ya got a lot of lucky Canucki in ya. From what part of Canada are your grandparents from? And where do you live?

I am always interested in stories like this because we all came from somewhere and we are always going somewhere. My bro, a doctor, is now living in Virginia and has just become an American citizen. He really misses Canada, though, and plans to retire here. He's already bought a chunk of land on a lake near Ottawa. This is where he is going to build his dream home. Two of his kids live in Canada, one in Halifax, one in Windsor for university reasons (she was living in London, Ont. for years), and the other one lives in Australia.

Hey Woodys: I've read on the other threads that most ppl don't seem to have a problem with sushi. Just give it a try (carefully) & see what happens.

Enjoy your few days off!!! I'm sure you both deserve it!

Are you guys sick and F-in' tired of all the BS 'out there'? OMG

How any one can keep track of all the posts about moderators and banning, and who the moderators should ban, and that the moderators should be banned themselves, and then all the banned people coming back with new identities .... it's beyond me. I just want to gnaw my hands off, after poking my eyes out, to stop myself from looking at any more of it!!

Is it that we're all just so damn nice? Or do we just know what not to say, to not cause sh!t? We're not "not being ourselves", we're just having some freakin' consideration, and politeness!

I'm worried that this might just make Alex (the owner) say "Screw this" and taking down the board altogether, with no warning. I certainly hope not. If that ever happens, we'll make our own board (not a Yahoo group!), and call it Survivors of LBT.

I'm new here but I've been noticing the occasional reference to the bad behaviour that has been going on. What kind of bad behaviour? What are these people doing?:rolleyes: Please put me in the loop.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
