  1. I am scheduled to have my band removed and sleeved June 18th. Beanie&Rosie'sMom, why did you have to stay longer!
  2. Do you have an update for us? How are you doing now?
  3. When are you getiing your band off and sleeved? Are you having it done at the same time? I am!
  4. I have been really worried that I will not lose weight after being sleeved like I did with the band. I have not told many people because I have this fear of failure!
  5. I am pretty new to the site here! I have been reading information for a month or so and recommended it to my nutrition group last week. Well..I finally have a surgery date..yeah me! I was banded in Sept 2007 and initially lost 36lbs only to gain it all back. The only thing it does for me is make it hard to swallow medicine and throw up. I wish I had never had it! I am excited about getting my band off and my sleeve done! I appreciate all your posts and the encouagement you are to me!
  6. They don't call them that but at Universal Studios the have the Large seats...after waiting in line for a long time...when I got the the seat belt pullover didn't fit. I had to get out of that line and get in to the larger seat line. It was very embarrassing!
  7. I want to ride a roller coaster without having to use the fat seats!
  8. What kind of ice cream freezer do you guys use and where can I get one?
  9. Can you please tell me more about the Bento box? I am not really sure what that is or what you do with it. I am up for any good suggestions. If you want to just provide the link to Eggface's message that would be great too!
  10. Luanne, Same thing happen to me...well sort of. We were at Universal Studios Orlando and they asked me to get in the line for bigger people so I had to get out of the ride with my daughter and go back and stand in the fat line. I was embarrassed and haven't wanted to go to a park since. If we do go I just ride the ones where there are no seat belts. I will be sleeved on June 18th and can't wait!
  11. My insurance requires it is done...so I will have it about 2 weeks before my surgery too!
