Ryan, This ones for you
I looked for that post too and found nothing, I remember it being on a thread I had started so I searched every thread I ever started and came up with nadda! Thats weird. Maybe I am remembering wrong.

A distinctly female problem!
LOL My Aunt and I were talking on this subject 2 days ago. Mens boobs that is. She said that shed have to draw the line if her hubby ever got so fat that he started to grow tits! I just laughed and was amused. You see my aunt is the same age as me! Her highest weight was around 190 right after she had her last kid. Shes now around 150 so she does have a different POV than me. And man boobs are where the line gets drawn! LOL

Blessed Energy! Time to go to work!
I found this little dresser for $5.00 at a yard sale this past weekend. Bought it, me and 4 little girls painted it and now WaaLa Eve has a dresser that matches her walls!

Blessed Energy! Time to go to work!
Well, I made the decision to take Eves room apart and give her a different bed and dresser. She now has a normal "Little Girls Room". Oh well, Florian can use her old bedroom suit. Alot of people had commented on how Eve was too young to have a bedroom like she did anyway. Doing things this way I don't have to buy any furniture for Florians room. His room will be our guest bedroom after he is gone. So, who want to come spend the night with me?

A distinctly female problem!
All of this talk about Boobs and Bras are bringing back memories from High School. I was just trying to remember about some of the names the guys would call a womans bra back in High School... Over The Shoulder Boulder Holder! Ha! if they only knew! Brazeer (my G-mas' name for a bra) I can't think of anymore right now, can anyone else?

A distinctly female problem!
Now Michelle....be careful with bragging about that kind of stuff. Youe not suppose to come on a thread like this and say things like, "The more weight I lose the bigger and perkier my breast are becoming!" Thats just not right! It's against the rules,second page from the last, read the manual! I'm playing OK! I'm glad your breast are getting bigger and perkier, really I am...lol

how long does this last!!!!!!!!!!1
This is a sad subject esp. for the bypass patients that have died of malnutrition. Went to a yard sale this weekend and the woman was a bypass patient, she looked great to say the least! She has a new lease on life and we can relate, right? She told me of her dumping problem. (keep in mind she has 3 small children as I share this) She said she ate 1/2 of a donut, got nautious feeling so she went to the BR to "dump" She woke up an hour later on the floor! You talk about scary!

Paying foreign Dr. to help Dr. Spivak
Dr. S is my doc too and I not only paid the 500.00 to his assistant but 6000.00 to Dr.S and that dos'nt include all the other fees I paid for the anistesiologist, hospital, ect. all amounting to over 12,000. When you want something bad enough you make a way. I was happy to use Spivac not only for his caring nature but his expertise AND he is here in the USA so I have guaranteed after care unlike Mexico surgeons.

A distinctly female problem!
Zoe, your not alone in this. Maybe we should form some sort of group. What could we call it? The boobless loosers, or We've lost them Have you seen em? No no no, thats still no good somebody help us here. We neeed a name for all the boobless bandsters. Hey maybe we can call ourselves The bandaid Kids, then everyond can ask why we call ouselves that and we get to tell them it's because we've resorted to bandaids for support!

Galveston Overnighter - November 13, 2004
Sorry ladies I did'nt know this thread was here, i'm just now finding it! I will be coming! I'll be arriving around 3 pm if thats the check in time. Is there an open space still? If there is an open space when the day comes my friend might want to come. She can pay her way. Is that OK with the rest of you ladies? (Your gonna kick me Leatha but i'm thinking...I won't get lost if my friend drives me hee hee)

Burping & Farting
Well, i'm glad this was brought up too. I could burp before banding, as a matter of fact I burped like a man all the time! (my two brothers are responsible for teaching me to burp in neighborhood burping contests) all that to say this. Now that i'm banded I burp even louder and longer! If we had a contest I bet I would win and I don't bet as a rule! Thats how much faith I have in my ability to burp the best. So, any takers?

MMMMM... I smell like a Tootsie Roll!
Anything Michelle? Are you sure you'll do anything? That can be dangerous!

Just got banded 11-05
Estella, It's a common thing what your experiencing. The burping (gas from surgery) the foam (seems to be a band thing). I'm sorry about your hubby not supporting you. Thats unfortunate to say the least. You'll find lots of support here. There are lots of nice people here and they have lots of experience to share. I would suggest for you to put a search on burping and gas and see what comes up. The search link is at the top of page on the bar with all the other links. Good luck and best wishes to you.

You ladies took the words right out of my mouth. Is anyone else even a little nervous about all of this or am I the only one?

NSV anyone?
These are all good NSVs ladies (and gents). I can't wait till I get to some of these victories, like wearing a size 18 pair of JEANS! I'm still waiting for Marie to make her contribution to this thread, from what I can hear she has a lot to shout about, like a new lease on life for example, thats a HUGE NSV Marie!
