You know you are a bandster when....
LMAO!!!!! I so had to do this a couple of weeks ago This thread is great Im barely half way thru just cant stop laughing.... Heres one, A new waitress at your fav rest keeps asking you "is something wrong with your food" and then you hear your usual waitress say "she had surgery and has to eat really really slow, just take her a to go box":tongue_smilie:

Is this a sign that my band is too tight?
Ive recently had reflux probs and I too gurgle...I called my doc bc my reflux was waking me up at night...when it getst that bad you're way too tight I am going monday for a slight unfil...I am going to suggest that we try just .25 bc last fill he only put .5 in...so maybe I just need half...but def dont ignore reflux call your doc!!

Is this a sign that my band is too tight?
Most doctors are guessing or going by the text books when it comes to doing fills/unfills every doc is DIFFERENT on what they like to do its all about how safe they wanna be or how agressive they are...this last fill I asked my doc to put i 2cc instread of just the one and he did and it has been perfect...he was only going to put in 1cc which I would have had to have another fill....Anyway, each person is different and we're the patients so if you wanna try only having .5cc taken out the talk with your doc and TOGETHER decide...they may be the professionals but youre the professional when it comes to your own body!!!!!!!!!!!!! But def go see your doc to get to the bottom of what is going on! Good luck to ya!

How is your port?
I only feel mine if I push on it. My doc put mine in the fattest part of my belly but Ive lost over 70lbs and still barely feel it...I can lie flat though and feel it...I wonder why yours is so close to your skin surface?

Donut Day Wt. Loss Challenge (June1st)
GGGGGrrrr. JASON I dont wanna hear it...lol Saturday...I was up 4lbs for NO reason what the crap...now I'm back down but geezzzzz....I only have TWO lbs to go to reach my april fools challenge......I really dont know if I can lose 13 lbs in 6 weeks to meet this goal...Im thinking I should lower it some maybe to 200
-
how long the LB is intended to last?
They havent studied the band long enough to be able to tell ppl that it will outlast them! I think that is something the remains to be seen "how long it will really last" I'm only 26 and the idea of having to have another surgery to redo my band....not a fun thought...I hope it lasts a LONG LONG time though.

Yeah I am soooo glad mike didnt go home...I think though that they have forgotten how to play the game...felipe should have gone home...but thats just me. I know its about wt loss but it is also a game and if some of those weak players wanna stay longer they better start voting off the strong ones when they have the chance. I think Aubrey would have really done a lot better to stay on the ranch :tt1: Ive been dragging this week, working out yes but def dragging!

Do you burp more now that you are banded? (non-productive, just air)
The hiccups for me are AWFUL! Its like they last forever and they hurt so bad!

Donut Day Wt. Loss Challenge (June1st)
I was really inspired by the April fools day challenge and everyone was talking about another challenge to do..so I did a google and found a holiday kinda in between instead of doing a long stretch out to July 4th...June 1st is Donut Day! I thought it would be fitting since donuts are what may have gotten some of us to where we were preband! LOL So lets start the donut day challenge! I dont know how to put that chart on here like is on the April fools day challenge so anyone that wants to post that and get us started...lets roll!!:rolleyes2:

HAHA, no it wasnt anyone on here. Just somebody that wasnt even banded yet at that time that I ran into....I use lemon juice a lot on salads...its sooo good but it doesnt matter I cant eat salads after this last fill!
-
Dr. Miles or Dr. Schmitt patients
So, I remember a few months ago somebody griped me out for eating salads...well I just went to lapbands website to see what all they've added and they've got recipes on there several with LETTUCE!!! For example: lettuce tacos, coleslaw, chinese ginger tofu salad....mmmmmm guess that the lapband site endorses salads in our diet :frown:

April Fools Weightloss Challenge
HAHA, thanks Im glad someone found it humorous...lol What do you think Jane you wanna start a Donut Day challenge when this one is over? I dont know about everyone else but this has been my first challenge and it has really made me push a little harder and watch what I eat a little better so it would be great if we could keep these going... only 2 lbs away!!
