My brother, the doctor thinks that those who provide abortions are women's best friends. I am inclined to agree.

I have read the Bible and I have found zero commentary to indicate that foetuses are "ensouled" at the moment of conception. This fantasy would indicate that the squeamish do require an argument to control the sexual activities of women; this stinks of gynophobia.

I don't want someone in the government telling me what I can or can't do to my body. Afterall, "they" could decide that no one should have the lap-band or other weight loss surgeries. "They" could just say that God (and I'm a believer) decided that we should be fat.

I firmly believe that it is a decision that should be made by a woman and her physician and that everyone else should "butt out"; it's none of my business. Furthermore, I believe that no woman makes a decision to terminate a pregnancy lightly.

I recently read a long and very interesting text called Misogyny, written by a man called Jack Holland. This very user friendly book is a history of woman-unfriendly attitudes which seem to be ingrained in both our philosophies and religious teachings. We take these for granted. As a woman, I am very wary of any and all governmental exertions to curtail my personal freedoms.

It would be natural for those who both dislike and fear thin, self-confident, attractive women to wish to see us on an sad and endless treadmill of hopeless dieting to enact laws that ban the band. I see the laws countering freedom of choice in much the same way. A woman, once pregnant, pays a horrible price - economic, and physically and for her time for her moments of sexual freedom both now and post-menopausally. As for men, it is just fertilize and run. Their job is done.

I like how they use terms like Child-killing. Thank you at least now I know to tell my hubby that I don't want to live in N.D. lol. This is a sad day for women living there :lol:

You yourself have called "it" a child and a baby. Abortion kills that entity. So for those who understand the unborn to be a child, the term "child-killing" isn't so out-of-line. Of course, for those who are in favor of abortion, it's unacceptable rhetoric, but you were reading a pro-life site so it's quite understandable.

I never said the term was out of line

Sorry; I read your comment that you "like" the term child-killing to be sarcasm. Didn't mean to assume something you didn't mean. If you like the term, you should start using it :lol:

I just think they use words that they think will sound the worse against abortion...when they could just have easily said they are against abortions...

The pro-abortion movement uses lots of other words to describe pro-lifers, other than just simply "those against abortion". There's nothing wrong with using a synonym here and there, and for calling a spade a spade.

        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.

      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
