I absolutely love it, too!

Thank you for posting the link to that thread! I too have PCOS and have been wondering how others with it have been fairing.

I absolutely will! :evil:

I went into a semi-tirade for you... http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f13/do-i-need-fill-not-45083/#post623745 Am I out of line?

Julie, are you a doctor or something? Shouldn't Leena consult her surgeon and nutritionist regarding how much she should be able to consume and whether or not she needs a fill? I know that you mean well, but just because YOU can eat 1/4 of a cup of food and be satisfied, not all people can. I have been under the impression that each journey is highly individualized. Although we are all after a common goal using similar tools, we each have our own paths that we must follow. You could be giving people the false pretense that they should be at the same level that you are. In turn, your judgmental comments could be doing more harm than good not only to a person's moral, but also their health.

What a great name for a punk band.

P.S. The male counterpart to the "November Nymphos" could be the "November Satyrs." According to Wikipedia, satyrs "are often associated with male sex drive and vase-painters often portrayed them with uncontrollable erections." I know I'm going to get yelled at for this generalization, but what guy wouldn't want to be known by those characteristics?!

LOL, that's a nympho! "November Nymphos"...te he he...that works, too!

Silly girl, no one is going to laugh at you! I think it's pronounced like new-voh...that's the best phonetic spelling I can come up with. :biggrin1:

I do like the French theme...and yes, we are all sophisticated! What if we incorporate the flower for the month of November (which is the Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthème in French)into the name?

HA! That's great!

Duh, I know what a ticker is, but how do I get it to show? Also, what's a bodybugg? Is that like a tapeworm that makes you loose weight?

You should bypass the fish. I heard there were nails and screws in it, thus causing many to gag.

Only my husband.

Why are you attempting to censor someone? Maybe you should get the "hell off this site" if you have a problem with someone's queries in the rants, raves and off-topic section of this forum. Your negativity is not healthy and could be hindering the success of others! :angry

I would: 1. Pay off students loans and other miscellaneous debt. 2. Buy my parents a home to retire in. 3. Set up college funds for my younger brothers and nephew. 4. Get a tummy tuck, breast, thigh and mons lift. 5. Make DH quit his job to pursue his dreams. 6. Buy tri-coastal homes; Hawaii, San Diego, east end of Long Island. 7. Start an event planning company, animal shelter, and free tutoring service. 8. Go back to school to be a Vet or Marine Biologist. 9. Build a dark room. 10. Travel.

What'sWrong WithEating. Nails? Aren'T They A Good SourceOf Iron? Isn't IronThe Same Thing As Protein? I Think You'll Be ok To Eat 1/2 A Cup OfNails A Day, Atleast! If You Have Trouble Getting.It Down, You Should Drink Some Soda To Help It Slide Through Your Stoma Faster. GumAlso Helps. You"RE Doctor Doesn'T KnowWhat He Is Talking About, Marjon9.

I Think It's Mostly WaterAndOther Compacted Bodily Wastes Weight, Though! I've Been Doing A Colon Cleanse To Rid My Body Of Toxins And To Loose Some Weight Before My Next Appointment With My Surgeon.

Don't forget the all too fabulous way of spelling "losing" as "loosing." That is something that drives me mad.

Faithmd, what does that have to do with fish or cat breath...geez, stick to the topic! j/k! Seriously, was that a real post?

my cat's breath smells like cat food.

Andie, your surgery is going to go so smoothly. You will be back home with your guys in no time! Just think, with the surgery that you will be having later today, you will be adding many more years to your life that you will be able to share with them and all of the additional family members that are yet to come! Please let us all know when you are home and how your recovery is going. I know that you will be in the thoughts of everyone who has read your post.

If that is the case, I am never having children! Some also liken the pain to that of a heart attack...anyway that it is described, it still frickin' sucks!

P.S. Just remembered: If you are already banded, you should probably avoid taking Advil along with any other NSAID. Definately see your doctor though. Good luck!
