Bettina, she did the same thing to me and I am a newbie, and never had any animosity toward her. I don't even know her. :) I was just reading posts to learn about the lapband, too. :D Then she attacks me for no reason. I have done nothing to her, yet she puts my name in a post and calls me a shark :o (at least, I think that is what she called me whatever that means.:) ) Man, if I was an easily provoked person I might have had words with her. :heh: But my mother always said to give people the benefit of the doubt. :D :clap2:

Yup I remember your name being there too!! Funny nobody wants it talked about --as if we are supposed to take it and not even defend ourselves...almost sounds like rape doesn't it?? I understand the bickering by the people heavily involved, they had a problem....but when that particular person -(notice I am not naming names I dont want to be associated with that same pool of people)--started pulling us in because we happened to be on the board is so totally wrong!!

Yep, that is definitely why he is the ex. Worked out for me though, I married the greatest love of my life so it was a blessing in disguise.

Don't worry Brooklynn, I went a bit OT, but that seems to happen here a lot lately.

Bettina,

I could understand her calling us out, if we had at least done something to her, but to do nothing to someone, and for them to try to put someone's head on a platter... :) I'm just glad it's over. I have my lapband done September 6. I am so excited! :biggrin1: :biggrin1: We just need to focus on our lapbands, and not let anyone try to get us down. Good luck! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Obviously no one read my postings and really thought about WHY we are all doing this. Sometimes you can't just spin your wheels on things. Oh well.... I tried. But I won't give up on you all. I am here for anyone that wants to use me as their sounding board. I have thick skin (not as thick as it used to be :) but still thick)

Yes, I am on the liquid fast. It's going pretty good with some small lapses, but I am going to stick to it, to a tee from here on out. :biggrin1: That's my story and I'm sticking to it. :D Thanks for the encouragement! This will work. I am going to give it my best shot. :bandit :bandit :bandit :bandit :bandit :bandit :bandit :bandit

I am very fidgety, also. I can't wait! :) :)

      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.
