  1. I sooooooooooo want these! Are they going to be in the clothing exchange? If so, I am willing to fight for 'em!
  2. After my neices surgery for her appendix, the doctor came in the room while she was recovering and said to my sister, "Do you know where this piece goes?" He had a rubbery red piece (it was fake) and he thought he was funny. Which I actually thought it was, but my sister was PISSED. I still laugh about that, which actually pisses my sister off more, which in turn makes me laugh even harder. On another note, I went to a doctor for Bronchitis. He used a regular Duracell flashlight to look in my mouth to my throat. Then he used a plastic spork to hold down my tongue. I thought he was kidding. Then he had me cough and spit onto a paper plate to which he actually smeared it around with the same spork he had used to hold my tongue down. I walked out. Didn't even say a word. Just walked out.
  3. I would offer to share the guest bed but Voo is really a bed and covers hog.
  4. Mexico or another country is probably your only option with that low of a BMI. How can you have a BMI or 30-32... there is about 30 lbs difference between the two numbers.
  5. Can I share some of my favorites too??? http://www.crazyfads.com/ http://www.officeslang.com/ http://www.badvacations.com/ and my personal favorite.... http://www.whichisworse.com/
  6. Are we going to start the countdown yet?????
  7. LMAO, Well I came to this thread for all the wrong reasons too. So what is the "do you swallow" question anyways? Are you asking if we do flouro? In my opinion it is the ONLY way to have a correct and true fill and rest assured that my band is okay.
  8. Yep, I had breakouts too. I quick trip to the dermatologist and he gave me a prescription of Duac. Works like a charm.
  9. Go to a massage therapist. Every time I go to my massage appointments it always stirs a good healthy bowel movement. I finally got the courage to ask the therapist if this is a coincidence and she told me that by stimulating the muscles it promotes expulsion of waste, including bowel movements (both #1 and #2). Also releases a lot of toxins, and is why they ask you to drink plenty of water for the next 24 hours to flush it all out.
  10. I am so glad I did this poll. That is all I got to say!
  11. Oh my gosh, it was horrible! She was so red and it must have been so painful!! http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=15103&highlight=sunburn
  12. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=15736 here is the link to that thread with the discussion about this topic
  13. Only if they are threatening them with a deadly weapon or an instrument that would cause serious physical harm as defined by statutes. (baseball bat, lead pipe, vehicle, etc). In that case, an assault would be implicated.
  14. I have looked, I wish I could find it and contact someone that has had the band that long! That would make me feel soooooo much better!
  15. I think it is because I am coming up on 1 year now. Most erosions seem to happen between 18-24 months it seems. I am just nervous and scared. I don't want to panic, but I am.
  16. I know there are more than 104 banded people here posting. I wish that more would lend their statistics. Things are NOT looking good for Dr. Lopez huh?
  17. Bumping for newer members to participate. Thanks
  18. Not to hijack your thread, but I would also like those that participated here to participate in my poll.... http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?p=182162#post182162
  19. Okay, it only takes a moment to vote, and it is anonymous. Please vote, I am curious. Please answer honestly and from the heart. No one will see what you personally voted. I just want to get an honest idea of how people feel. You don't have to share thoughts if you don't want to, just click a bubble and vote how you feel. Thanks so much for everyone participating.
  20. Any way to get all those scratches out too????
  21. Here is the garbage disposal. It was wet, it really isn't that gross looking, the picture makes it look worse. It is more the rim stains I need to get out.
  22. Here is of the right drain, I can't get those stains out!!! I tried BKfriend and Comet, I also tried bleach. Nothing... they did get a little better, but I scrubbed raw! Ha ha, I just noticed the popcorn kernal from my DH's popcorn last night in the drain, gonna have to remember to yell at him for that!
  23. Harleynana, A fresh fabric softener sheet for the computer monitors. Not the thin sheet kind but the spongy sheets. I have been working on the sink issue... Here is what it looks like thus far. It is only 2 years old!! I think it should sparkle more and look nicer, am I being too picky??? Arrrrgh, I am going to be so embarrassed by these pictures!!! Okay, here goes... here is a picture of the entire sink.
