I with ya on this one. PUT THE FREAKIN' PHONES DOWN! I was almost run over yesterday in by some idiot who was talking on their phone RATHER than looking both ways while turning right at the corner where i was trying to cross.

Personally, I don't think that these new laws that outlaw Handset use in the car will do much good....I think that ANY use of a cell phone in a car should be BANNED. It's not the handset, it's the DISTRACTION!!!!

I love texting! It's the least of the distractions of American drivers.

There's eating in the car, playing with the raido, having a passanger, having road rage...

I think the cell phone is the least of our problems. Monstly all the bad drivers I see don't have the phone in their hand, they have anger issues.

Having a passanger is the same as talking on the phone, if not more distracting.

texting and driving his dangerous. If someone is talking on the cell phone they usually are driving like idiots, but texting is waaaay worse.

Are you telling me you never looked over and seen some kid with their eyes completely off the road on the phone furiously texting their gf, bf, bff, whatever. Its dangerous and irresponsible.

Texting is fine, but it doesn't belong on the road.

yeah, the only thing worse than talking while driving is TEXTING. Those people are just plain stupid.

Should be an executable offense. :D

      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.
