    Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters

    How is all my bandland buddies doing? You guys are a great support group, I see all the teachers are getting ready to go back to work(you guys are the best), hard working, caring and underpaid. On another note, I'm still in bandsterHELL, I'm not losing much, just maintaing,I really changed my diet, It was amazing how much garbage I use to eat, it sucks having no restriction, two more weeks, and hopefully that will change. Today is my Granmas' B-day 83 years old, she is an amazing women, RedLobster tonight, it's her favorite. We are leaving for the beach tomorrow, so excited, I'm down between 17-22 lbs, it depends on how many pickles I eat, my wife thinks I'm the one who is pregnant. I love my band so much, this is kind of weird, but I like the fact that I have no restrction and can eat anything I want, don't get me wrong, I want a fill asap, and get to my goal weight. But I was thinking about when I get to my goal weight, on certain holidays I can have a feast once in a while, that does put a big smile on my face. My wife and her family are great cooks all downhome Paula Dean style cooks, everything is homemade. Anyway I'll miss you all next week, I wish everyone the best, Danny
  4. and my family, thought I was crazy, but I'm 34 no health issues yet, but it runs in my family, stroke, heart disease, high Blood pressure, diabetes, my parents were like, you should diet harder, I have been dieting for 7 years, I got banded July 9th of this year, love my band, its just a tool, my wife is excited, we have a 3 yr old and one on the way, I did it for my health, and my wife and children, good luck on whatever you decide, Danny It's like Nike(Just do it) your health is more important than whatever people think

    If he is cheating, he has to go, call me old fashioned, but once a cheater always a cheater, I do not believe in 2nd chances, thats a bond of trust that is broken, I do not think I could ever heal from that, I think I would have to much anger and rage at my wife if that was going to happen, we took vows under God, thats something that is extemely important to me, I had all my fun in my early to mid 20's now I'm going to be 34 this month with my 2nd child on the way. If I was to cheat my wife would leave me, and I know that for a fact, I don't think I could respect her if she stayed. I would never want my litlle Callie girl away from her mom and dad, I could not envision life without my wife Leila and Callie. I hope and pray for you and Adam, maybe he will come around and find out you are the best thing for him, Good luck, Danny

    From ab out day 4 I was in hell, so hugry, I started eggs and cottage cheese, I probably was not suppose to, after two weeks I could eat anything, if I had to do it all over again I would have stayed on the diet as recommended, because I lost 15lbs. the first week and 3-5lbs. since, I need a fill asap!! Danny Kim you were born on the greatest day in the world!(Ha, Ha) hope everything is going well, Danny Dini, give him the benefit of the doubt, guys hate communicating, there is something in our brain, probably a defieciancy were kind of messed up creatures, just be straight forward with him, ask him why? we like direct questions, if he is up to something he will be beating around the bush, I don't tell my wife I'm talking to a bunch of women on here, but when that cruise comes up, I'll be excited and tell her to get ready, and she will be happy, I do not feel like I'm doing anything wrong talking to all of you . You have a buetiful little girl who needs her Daddy, I would try to talk with him, its hard for guys to show and discuss our feelings, we are taught to be strong, not to worry, to be a man, the mushy, gushy feelings are very hard for us to talk about. I'm sure he loves you very much, he has a lot on his mind, you are getting better from surgery(I'm sure he worried about that, but did'nt show it), Try being direct, simplicity, it works we are simple, not very complex, I have to tell myself everyday, hold my wife, hug her, tell her I love her, sit down talk to her, I know this should be normal for you women, but it is not for me, I have to constaqntly remind myself, honestly I have learned a lot by reading what all of you write on here, Dini its going to be alright, as long as he does not hit you, verbally abuse you, or cheat on you, he will come around if you use direct, simple questions, you girls are a lot more complex, you girls have all the power, just learn how to use it, Danny

    Doing well, started exercising, starting to lose a little, down about 20lbs, I hope you all are doing well. I miss writing you guys everyday, just been so busy, we goto hear the heartbeat tomorrow, I hope everything goes well. I'm so excited about being a Dad again. Signed my 3yr old up for gymnastics, tonight is the first class, as you see, the work never ends. I can't wait for my first fill, it will be on my b-day Aug, 23rd, My restriction is nowhere to be found, I pretty sure I can eat the same or real close to the same pre surgery, its kind of scary, seeing 15- 17lbs in the first week, 3-5 since then. Anyway no portpain, scars are healing nicely. Lynette I think I'm going to refi my house here shortly, any recomendations, I heard countrywide was really good. I got so lucky with my house, my grandma, bought me 6 acres about 7 years ago, she paid 15,000 for a wedding present, I saved up almost all the lumber for previous jobs for almost 10 years, I had most of the doors, windows, cabinets, blocks, etc. I did all the labor with 4 close friends,except ac, roof, sheetrock, I spent a little more than 30 grand, and when we had that explosion in the market, they appraised my house for alomost 350,000. I'm very fortunate to be in this situation, I hope 10 more years of building, roughly 45 I can retire, thats a goal, 45 healthy and travel the world. Sorry I was rambling, I'll talk to you all later, Danny

    I hope everyones' doing well, Glad to see your back Michelle. It's been 18 days, and I'm down 18lbs. , but I feel like I'm in bandsters hell, no more swelling, no port pain, and I can eat anything, i need a fill ASAP. I can eat bread, meat,etc.. Lynette, I'm sorry about those pancakes, that seemed really rough. I have been so busy with work, and family, I guess the bad thing is I lost the 18lbs. in the first week, and just maintained. I'm scheduled for a fill in St. Pete (fill centers usa), on my birthday Aug. 23rd that will be the best present in the world. My wife is getting better with the morning sickness, we go on Aug 3rd for the heartbeat(very excited). I'm going to start excersing on Monday, Cardio, cardio and more cardio I hope that will boost my metabilism. Good luck to all you Lucky # 7s' Danny

    Hey everyone, I'm on the board, I'm going back to read the last 8 pages, I hope everyone is doing well. Danny
  14. As Dini said , cruisin with all these hotties, my wife would want to go! So I would take her, plus she would fit right in with everyone, Danny
  15. I like Mexico, The Carribbean, It really does not matter with me, I will be bringing my wife, I might bring my 3 yr old if other children will be there, but my lttle girl can stay with her grandparents. Wherever we go would be just fine with me, Danny
