Recommended Posts

Yes I know that there are concerns about plastic - but like the song goes our Mom's drank, smoked, our cribs had lead paint - and most of us are still around - Heck just breathing the air, eating food (BBQ meats, overdone bacon)is all going to do us in.

I just was pointing out that that email wasn't true - that's all - but you are most likely right - plastic will be the new tobacco issues - omw can you imagine all the law suits.

We all gotta go some way... :lol:

Phly my Dasani Water bottle is a b9 - where do I go look that number up at???

I'm not sure it's an issue with the pliable Water bottles, Indiogirl.

I just think that plastic bottles left in the car give Water a nasty taste. lol

Snopes.com is always a great check for things, I think.

Yeah, I'm not going to quit using my new water bottle. I'm just rotating the "poison" one

with the non-poison one!!

:lol::biggrin::lol::biggrin:

If you turn your plastic items over

and look on the bottom for the recycle icon....

little triangle...

the number inside the triangle is the indicator.

#7 is BAD, any other number is okay, I guess.

We are all trying to get healthier, and maybe live a little longer with the help of the band wright? So think about it and maybe just switch to glass. "if it matters to you" I don't use plastic, I use to work in a plastic factory and it might be good for some things, but I wouldn't drink out of it. I liked the point about the lead paint. Very True!!!

The only ones that are complaining about that in Detroit. Were the ones that let their children teeth on the painted woodwork. Those people sued. Don't no what they got, but i'm sure something.

End of subject.

Shirley...:lol:

I bought mine at a sport shop. I also have a stainless steel cup for work. You have to fill your own Water into a bottle.

I bought a Siggs Water bottle online from Amazon.com. They have different sizes, colors, etc. I fill it from my filtered water from the frig. It's cold, fits in my purse and car cupholder. You can add flavored, tea, juice, milk, etc. The designs are nice and I liked it so well I bought one for each of my 3 grandsons. Milk for the baby,choc milk for the 4 yr old and apple juice for the 7 yr old.

I believe I'm off to bed...I'd had to do more corrections than actual typing to this litte ditty. The sleeping pill is working its fine magic and making me seem totally illiterate. ENOUGH for tonight :) Off to her bed. More coherent days are coming.

Everyone have a nice evening.

Hi everyone, got my band yesterday. The gas is really the toughest part, trying to walk every hour to see if it helps. Did anyone also have a hard time taking a deep breath? It hurts a lot right under my breast bone when I try to breath normally. Gralda

        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
