If your ever stuck with out being in a tight space you might be a bandster If you have more leftovers in your fridge from meals eaten out then real food you might be a bandster...

I am sooo sorry to hear your story... If you need support I am here. I can't say that I have had any problems... but I remember the struggle I used to feel when I was on my own without the band... and it would be very scary for me.

Harsh but true... Kellie is awful

Penni... what happend with getting on the show? Any hope. I think you would be great. I wish you lived closer so that I could be more of a support. I am training for a triathlon. It really helps with the weightloss. It is a 1/2 mile swim, 11 mile bike and a 3mile run. I know it seems like a lot but its really fun. If you might like to do it with me I would love to be your e-training buddy.

I love this site... thanks queen!

well the band is not new... it is just new to the us... maybe you should look up reports from the J and J swedish band... that might give you more info. As to me. I may be nieve but if it makes me eat like this the rest of my life even if removed its all good!

Sorry that it happened and so quickly at that. We all know we have different tollerances to different things, so why should the band be any different. I know women who had trouble with the RNY and some who found it great... that unfortunatly is how the world goes.

I was a 22/24 and now I am a 14/16 I would like to be a 10... never been a 10!

I teach at orange elementary on valencia rd... by santiago. 13miles is a long way to walk! :confused: On the 8th I think I will be home... I am a track coach also for UCR so I will have to see if we have a meet that weekend.

Welcome! I live in Riverside! I teach in Corona! So if you need support let me know. I am trainig for a sprint triathlon... if you want to run I am down for three miles

I can... so can Theresa. We had surgery with him. I had mine over 1 1/2 years ago....love it never had a moment of problems.... he is wonderful. He calls you back and really cares. He has a wonderful bed side maner. pm if you want my number so we can talk

Fabu welcome to the new you!

I began slowly... first with walks, I had a very bad knee. Then by the end of about 6 months I was up to a couple of miles. I moved in to a new community and my neighbors and I began a walking club in the summer. It made me more consistant and by that time I had dropped about 60lbs so the knees were no longer a problem. I got up to 5 miles every other day. Then when the weather go colder we all kind of slouched off and I noticed that I was not loosing anymore.. so I decided to set a goal. I would run a 5k (3.1) miles. I told absolutly everyone...to keep me honest. I joined a gym and I ran my first 5k this past Jan. It also helped with the weightloss. I have now set my sights on a triathlon in June... I just need goals. I also need something to relieve stress that is going on in my life... I have found that I can not change many things in my life but I can do this... Its a new outlook for me. Instead of eating when I am stresses I excercise. It has really worked. I don't have the same pains (not that I don't have pain) I swim 3 xs a week, I bike every other day and I run 6 days a week. But this has been a long journey for me. I did not start where I am today and it took a long time to get my mind to this mind set. I actuallyt feel bad when I am not heading to the gym for my work out. I have made friends there...especially with the trainers so they give me free advice...lol. So start slow and remember this is a journey of a lifetime!

how could of ann nicole had surgery...she models in a bikini

yes and O is chuncky again from going to Africa

no one in Riverside I am afraid and I have never heard of Dr Oliak

been married for awhile can I live vicariously through you.

If only I had 50% to take..lol I have thought about lipo and a boob job 650s I think!

That is the thing people who are misserable want others to feel misirable too...ingnore that bastard...

I have the goldfish snack pack it fills me up and they are tasty too.

Remember the first 6 weeks are about healing....

I needed that!

I agree with the rest...your gut tells you a lot about situations...Its instinct and you have to feel compy with someone who is doing somthing so important. Do you know how many things could go wrong with an inexperienced lying surgeon...please be careful.

welcome...congrats!

His name is Dr. Billy Helmuth he is in Ventura. He is very nice from what I have heard. He would have been willing to take over my care but I have the SGAB so it is not leagal here but... he did referm me to another Dr. If you need a band buddy I am close I am in Riverside and I work in Corona. Holla if you need anything.
