  10. my surgery was 11-21, I keep taking 4 hour naps. any one have same experience?
  11. I am 29 & was banned 2 days ago. I struggled with my age & wondering if I should proceed. but I have struggled with weight for almost 30 years now, why wait 10, 15, 20 more years before I make a change?
  12. at least you realize you went wrong, you always make a "u-turn"
  13. I have a belly bandit. does anyone know if they are ok post OP. I am 2 days post op& I like the support it gives. any suggestions?
