SUPPORT OUR TROOPS.
END THE WAR NOW.
BRING THEM HOME.

Americans killed in the occupation of Iraq as of September 22, 2007 is 3,798.
United Kingdom = 170 Other = 130.

How many more Americans must die to satisfy Bush's ego?
Let us all pray for Bush - God knows he needs it!

As of September 24, 2007 it has been 1608 days since Bush
while standing in front of the banner which was sent
to the ship by the White House saying MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
declared,"In the Battle of Iraq, the United States and our
allies have prevailed." IOW MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

Isn't Bush's "surge" of troops working well?
Pay attention to the frequency of American deaths since it began.

Thanks Loretta,
Yes I felt wonderful and shocked at the same time. Thanks for your kind
words. You are right...one meal at a time. Then I can go for the one day at
a time.

Thank you my friend. Thanks for asking me back here. It always did help me
try harder when I was here.

Reisa helped a great deal with a sample menu for foods I like so I can't
take all the credit.

Diana, when I was home recovering from my heart attack...falling into
a depression, I read "How to stop worrying and live life" or something
like that by Dale Carnegie. Now this is a very old book, written in
the 1940s but I was astonished how relevant it was for today and it
helped me as much or more than the multitude of other books I read.

One of the basic tenets of the book was living just for today...in the
moment. He called it having day-tight containers. This is how I
approach things now. I have given up on worry and on dwelling on
things. You are approaching this the right way. One meal at a time,
then one day at a time. Stop there. Don't worry about next week or
next month. If you live today right, tomorrow will take care of
itself.

Jan you have been a tower of support since the first day I came here in
1999. Thank you for that and for being my friend. I was beaming I was so
happy. It gives me so much happiness and self esteem to continue on and do
that good and maybe even better. Thanks for being here for me all these
years.

I have A1c's of around 4.8, my daytime bg's rarely move above low 5's yet my
fastings are never lower than mid 6's and often over 7.0.

Nice going, Frank! I assume you've beaten your pp figures into
submission also?

If you decide to go for the band op, having tightly controlled bg
figures will make recovery much safer.

I take none of the credit especially when talking with other outside
internt.
I tell them it is due to ASD ..
Y'all welcomed me immediately and I am forever grateful for it.

What's my pp figures & how did you find out I'm having problems with them ?

I'm leaning away from the band op ATM.... Not only it scares me at my age,
(I have to think of my family & what would happen if I stayed on the table)
but I want time with my family to share lots of pleasures with them.

I think I am, sensibly, a little scared of this op.
I'd also like to hear what experiences others have had ...

Further on the band op ... this page gives information in English,
on what to expect after the op & advises joining a support group ...

http://www.obesitechirurgie.com/english/after.htm


this is not the guy I has chosen, but advice will vary so little,
don't you think ?

It's wise for us older folk to be a little cautious of operations
involving general anaesthetic. Not only is there a higher risk of
something going seriously wrong, there is also a higher risk of minor
cognitive damage. Old brains aren't quite so resilient about being
poisoned for an hour or so.

Hi Frank
I am 57 and have considered the surgery. I have researched it and it seems
alot safer than other weight loss surgeries. I hope I am talking about the
same thing you are :-) If I am here is a link that helped me a great deal
when considering the gastric bypass a few years ago and it has testimonies
for that and the lapband.

obesityhelp.com

Here is the forum for that particular procedure and you can read others
comments.
You can also search for a surgeon there among other things.

obesityhelp.com

My doctor is really pressing me for the lap band.

I wish you the very very best in all things.

:-) didn't mean to make you blush :-)


You know Frank when I came here in 1999 this group literally saved my life.
My doctor surprised me when she told me I had diabetes as I was only there
to establish being a new patient because my doctor went into Nephrology
only.

She handed me a 1200 calorie menu and never once told me what diabetes
entailed. The diet, the life changes nor did she refer me to anyone.

I was pretty new to the internet upon finding this group and had it not been
for them I could not be here now. These posters are my extended friends and
family. I only met a couple in person and it was worth everything to me.

I am glad you are here but not why you had to come. We can do this together
and achieve goals we didn't know we had in us. :-)

Now though it is years later I hope to catch up with you and the ones I met
upon coming to this number 1 group on the internet.

I have every faith in you that your goals will be met and kept.
