Looking at things through a new eyes

Dear MGB members, (especially newbies)

I have always considered myself pragmatic & open minded and anything but

gullible...however...

I am ashamed to say that I was recently sucked in and rendered fearful by the

ramblings of . I exchanged many emails with her, and thought

she had my best interest at heart. (OMG, I almost " networked " with her...)

She even thought she had " SAVED " me from the MGB (and so did I). I am now

looking at things through clearer eyes. (she's good at what she does:

" Conjure FEAR " )

I too, think that it is important that everyone do their own research, to

decide what surgery is best for them. But please do it with your physicians

& local surgeons, instead of LT, lest you fall prey to her fear as did I.

There aren't clear RIGHTS and WRONGS. There are so many bariatric surgeons

that disagree...listen to them all, talk to your doctor and make your own

educated decision. My choice will be the MGB, it feels RIGHT for me. One

morning I hit my knees to pray, specifically for guidance on making a

decision about weight loss surgery, and THAT evening I found http://clos.net.

(Coincidence? I think not!) Then I started to doubt what I felt after seeing

LT's site ... Since my dealings (emails) with LT, I've continued to pray

and am ABSOLUTELY sure that I shouldn't be having ANY dialogue with her at

all. That is the way it will remain! I already feel better just getting all

of this out! (PHEW!!)

I too, will IGNORE her future emails (and I'm sure I'll get a few!!), and

stick to what feels right...which is the support of this egroup and other

Possitive & SUPPORTIVE obesity boards.

God Bless us EVERYONE!

p.s. More Advice: Do not subscribe to MGB-TRUTH unless you're just hungry for

a nice heaping helping of POPPYCOCK with a side order of FEAR! (ick, tastes

BAD!)

p.s.s. If you're wondering who LT is, read THIS little history...

Hi Cindy!

This is Christy in NC and LT responded to my email marked Hi Everyone! (This

was my second contact) I'm in the process of repling to her and I feel as

you do. I have faith in God above and have seeked his guidance as I do with

all my decisions, I know this is my answered prayer. I don't know LT and I

hope she finds peace. But as for me, I've done my homework and I'm about to

be set free!!! The MGB is the procedure that I will have if it be HIS will.

LT or no one else will convince me otherwise. Faith is freeing!!!!!
