Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hi Jenni - AMEN! We've been through these off topic incidents several times in the 9 months I've been on the board and it usually gets ugly before things smooth over. Sure hope we can all be adults about it this time. Alot of the " founding " members don't post any longer because there are too many posts to weed through now and even tho I'm no longer a newbie, I miss their sage (aka: kick butt) advise on how to get to goal now that I'm stuck. How about it everyone? Liz > > I have to agree with , Ginger, and anyone else who stated that > many members on this board get off topic WAY too often! I rarely > post simply because of having to spend so much time weeding through > many of the posts here that have nothing to do with lapbands.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Liz, I hear you about being stuck and missing the " kick butt " people! So here I am to kick your butt! PATIENCE, PATIENCE, PATIENCE! Measure yourself for encouragement instead of weighing, put away the scale (something I was told and didn't do, but should have). I know you exercise a lot more than I do so I don't think that is the problem. Just remember that your body does need to catch up every so often. Do you need a fill? Even though my plateau has been broken--a bit-- I am going for another fill this afternoon. It will be my third in a little over 6 months. I hate the first few weeks of a new fill but-- it does seem to get me back on track! Good Luck! Penny Penny Manville Walden, Colorado DOB 9/26/05 230/180/135 Woohoo, 50 lbs. gone forever!!! 1st fill 12/9/05 1cc 2nd fill 1/27/06 0.5 cc 1.5 cc total 5'4 " __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Description of our group This group is established for the purpose of discussing and sharing our experiences with the Miracle Mineral Supplement .This may be the answer to most diseases.It was originally used Africa and is said to be a malarial cure. It's not a drug, but rather a mineral supplement and it handles most diseases caused by bacteria or viruses, including even AIDS. Please visit http://miraclemineral.org to download the free book The Miracle Mineral Supplement of the 21st Century. Please post your experiences with using this supplement.We are not experts or medical doctors and these are only our individual experiences. There is no medical advice here .We only can tell you what worked for us or what we might do if we were in your situation. I am asking that any reference to the ages of minor children be kept off the list.Big brother is watching...If at some point the govt decides MMS is bad for us, they might decide to take custody of these chidren that are " put in danger " . You may wish to avoid the age issue by saying grown brother or grown son or even talk about your friend... I would like to keep unrelated topics, fun conversations and personal chatter to a minimum. We need a group specificly for how to use MMS and discuss symptoms and treatments.There are alot of sick people who dont have the energy or time to peruse through 25 messges to find 1 MMS message.This is not to say that we cant discuss other health alternatives related to a persons illness . The object is to help each other achieve optimal health, so I wont forbid any topic. I just ask that off topic be kept minimal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
