  1. My husband, parents, sister, and a few friends know but that's it. I'm not telling a lot of people about it basically because I don't really want to hear their opinions. I didn't want food police, I didn't want to hear about there sister's friend's mom who had it and died, and I didn't want to be identified as "Julie the girl with the lapband." If someone comes out and asks me if I had it done I would tell them. But I'm just not going to tell every single person I meet that I've had it done, I'm a pretty private person and thats just not me.
  2. I love going to the movies but I really think I love renting them more..the last few movies we saw were: Coraline which kinda scared me lol and I don't really think it's a kids movie but I may just be a big wienie. Revolutionary Road I loved it! I thought it was great! And He's Just Not That Into You which I hated but I'm not really a "chick flick" kinda gal.
  3. I do have a question for anybody who's been banded for a few day or weeks, is it normal to be burping or feeling like you need to burp?
  4. I got banded yesterday! I'm feeling pretty weird today, pain isn't as bad as I thought it would be....so far. I've been doing a lot of sleeping and walking every hour. I think I have some gas pain in my right shoulder. I'm not hungry at all just really thirsty. I'm just glad it's over with.

  6. This is what I'm kinda worried about. I've been on antibiotics since last Monday to get rid of a sinus infection and I feel a whole lot better, but my nose is still some what stopped up. Other then that I'm fine, no fever or chest congestion. My surgery is December 19
  7. Hey everyone! I'm being banded on December 19, I've already been on the pre-op diet for 7 days and I've lost 7lbs. I'm getting super scared about surgery!
  8. My surgery date is December 19 and I start my pre-op diet on December 6. I'm super scared but also pretty excited...
  9. BikiniBeachy I completely understand! I just want to be able to wear an attractive one piece without having to wear a t shirt and shorts along with it. I see your 11 days since your surgery! How is everything going? I'm having mine on December 19 and I'm super nervous!
  10. For real nightart6! All my friends here just think I really like the 1950s. Swing dance lessons is on my list of things to do when I start losing weight lol! I'd also like to take stipper pole aerobics class also! But I think I might have a hard time finding a class like that in Waco,Texas.lol
  11. Other than being a pinup model, I really want to go swimming in a pretty bathing suit and just a bathing suit, not a bathing suit with shorts and tank top. I don't even remember the last time I went swimming.....I wonder if I can still swim lol! I'd also like to take burlesque lessons!
  12. nightart6, that's exactly what I want to do!!
