Are You and Your Band on the Same Page?

I titled my blog this today because yesterday my band and I were not on the same page. By any stretch of the imagination. I don't even know if we were both reading the same book! :confused:

Does anyone else seem to have issues with pork? I've tried it twice since I've been banded and both times had disasterous results.

Last night I was eating some left over pork loin, prepared for it to be a little dry I added some extra bbq sauce to my plate for the purpose of dipping and allowing the meat to go down easier. Took about four bites and WHAM! Stuck.

I immideatly got in the shower. Sometimes it helps me to take a cool shower and get cooled off. It helps. Don't know why, could be all in my head, but it helps just the same. After about 45 minutes of slime slime and more slime I'd had enough. I did the cardinal sin of bandsters and stuck my finger down my throat. Finally all better.

Needless to say I was on liquids for the rest of the day. The upside to my little improptu liquid diet is I lost two more pounds. A total of 42 pounds lost and 5 pounds from onederland. :confused: Happy dance for my being 5 pounds from onederland.

On the wierder side of life (yes it gets wierder) caught my dog dragging her butt across the carpet the other night......called the vet right away of course. Asked them what the probability was that she had worms. Vet said pretty good chance. WELL SHIT! :thumbup: Things just keep getting better. So I ask the vet what I can do to kill off the worms that won't cost me an arm and a leg. They said they could give me two pills, give them to her at the same time, cost less than 20 bux. :redface: To the vet I went. Got home, gave the dog the pills and no more butt dragging, that I've seen. She's figured out what makes me scream at her I think so she just leaves the room to do it. Kinda like a kid. Only my dog is the kid in class that is allergic to EVERYTHING and eats the glue. :thumbup: Why me? Oh well, she keeps life interesting I guess. She's a beagle if anyone is wondering. And I guess beagles are pretty suseptible, just like kids to test what things will travel through their digestive tract. Preparing me for a child I guess. If I ever have one.

Well, that's what's been going on in my little world the last few days. Have a great day bandsters. Talk to you all soon.

Congrats on being so close to onederland!

5 more lbs...awesome!

OMG!!!! ROFLMAO @ ass draggin on the floor. I have a Rat Terrier, HER name is Max ( I know I know) you are so lucky. When Max drags her ass its a trip to the vet for a MOST disgusting ANAL GLAND squeeze to relieve the ,,,ummmmm, pressure.

Congrats on being so close to the 100's. Im 12 pounds away but will get there hopefully before christmas.
