LAP BAND Surgery.....?
I'm sitting here enjoying a Stargate Atlantis marathon on the SciFi channel, thinking of things to make for StarFest... because I've been quite a slacker for the last couple of years. But I'm also doing a bit of research about the Lap Band. While working in the OR I watched several people go through the surgery. But I never hear about later. So, I'm curious....
Has anyone here had this particular surgery? Would you be willing to share your experience with me? Did it help? What were your results? How was the surgery? and the recovery? Pain levels? Are you happy you went ahead and opted for this path? I'm very seriously considering it after the first of the year. The Surgery center in my area will assist with the insurance end but you have to have a BMI of 40, or 35 with weight-related medical issues. I'm under 35. Personally, I've tried everything else, every program, and yoyo'd several times. I'm tired of dieting without results. Any info would be very appreciated.
I hope everyone has a lovely, peaceful and safe holiday whatever it may be. We'll be hopping back and forth between families...
Take care, all ^_^

I just want everyone to know....
I am not nor have EVER been the brand new very young Kryspen at:
MySpace.com - Kryspen - 24 - Female - VIDOR, Texas -
I just want to scream...
I googled myself and every other reference there is me EXCEPT this one (I think... I stopped looking after a few pages :P). EGADS!!!!
I had to use my whole name Kryspen Greenwillow as my myspace ID. crap... I really hope no one has been confused by this. I've been Kryspen for longer than this one has lived. It's so easy for confusion to occur on the internet, especially with so many personal blogs/journals available.
Am i wrong to want to be a wee bit unique. I have quite a history as it is...

YAY!
I have new employment. More money, a combination of my medical and computer experience put to good use. I have hopes for an actual career once again. And I've been fortunate to have taken a month off before starting my new job... and it was very needed [physically AND mentally], even if I had to help hubby clean out the garage so his car would fit.

possible plagiarist!
I cannot believe there is a person posting chapter after chapter of a story somewhat shortened and rewritten but obviously is Quiseyes's story 'Saraband'. It's so obvious. I'm sure it's only due to the fact that Quis left the LotR scene so suddenly a few years back and yanking her stories off the web, that this melaminhaldir is able to pull it off. Where did they get Quis' story? Bizarre!
Excerpt from melaminhaldir story:
"There was a small package waiting for him when he arrived home in Auckland.
He unwrapped a small velvet pouch inside which was a sterling silver fish on a chain. The eye was a single sapphire.
On the back, engraved in tiny writing, were the words: You set me free. Love & gratitude always. EJW.
It wasn’t the sort of thing he’d normally wear, but he suspected it hadn’t been given to him with the intention that it be worn.
It was a symbolic gift, nothing more.
Just as well really. He’d feel like a bit of a fraud. After all, he couldn’t even free himself."

Hmmmmmmmmmm............. the only thing that would make this kosher is if this person is Quis.... I think we would know.
