Did we vote on a name? Lucky Losers is that the final.

Go for my 2 week check up next wednesday!! I am starting to get a little hungry now. Seems like I am always "drinking/slurping" on something. I have not however started the exercise thing. Maybe tomorrow...

Hey Lisa of course it is "normal" whatever that is but you would be foolish if your mind did not go to the "what if's"

everyone had to determine if the risks outweighed the benefits for me yes. I am miserable being overweight! Psyche more than anything! My friends and I have a saying "Once you've been a star it is really hard to not be one" For example if you were never someone in the spot light you wouldn't miss it but if you were then you always want to try to get it back!!!You will be fine you are in all our thoughts and prayers!!

Granny TJ You go girl! You are losing away.

Man I swallowed a piece of gum today and am

i miserable! I feel it slowly moving down. Word of advice

don't chew gum. I have read on some threads that some

MD forbid gum mine however has never mentioned yes/no. Learned the hard way! YUK

Terri,

Hey! My name is Christine and I am an RN at TGH. I did alot of research and ask alot of nurses who had the band and finally I went with Dr. Grossbard his partner is Dr. DiCicco. They are not on staff at TGH but have surgical

privileges there. The offices are in Tampa and Pasco.

I went to a educational seminar and listened to Dr. Grossbard talk and it was great an open discussion forum with Q & A. Good Luck I was banded on the 19th

"Metamorphasizing March Bandster's" Since we

are literally changing ourselves? Or to scientific?

Can't wait to look good in clothes!!! I love to shop and miss looking

HOT!!! I want my body back!!! *health and all the other good stuff too!
