  1. I'm raising my 16 month old granddaughter. I was banded on Wednesday. She stayed with her godmother until Friday. My only restriction was no driving for 24 hours. She is trained to go up the steps when its night time. I then pick her up to put her in the crib.
  2. I just crossed over to the "banded" world yesterday. I have a question.. Can someone tell me how they track their food/protein intake besides the old fashion way of writing it down? I was wondering if anyone used my fitness pal? Thanks
  3. I'm doing ok. Just took gauges off and took a shower. I can't seem to get comfortable. I'm doing ok with the gas. Had a few issues yesterday. I'm using gasX strips.... I hope you get some relief...
