I got my weight ticker from tickerfactory.com. Once you compile one here, you can upload it to your signature here. To get to your signature, you can go to the quick links tab at the top and under the user control panel, select edit signature. Once you get to your signature page, you can upload your ticker in the upload box below the text box and either before or after, type your information and dates in the text box. There is a great thread on here that is more specific and detailed and would be very helpful. Just search for “ticker” or “ticker help” and you should find it. Again, congrats and welcome!!!!

Any November 2009 Bandsters??
I can lay on both sides with no problem and is almost able to lay on my stomach without a prop, my leg. I can lay on it for a while as long as I put a pillow over my port. I hope it won't be long now until I am able to lay on my tummy with ease, since that is my favoriate sleeping position.

Any November 2009 Bandsters??
Thanks counselor-is-in. I haven't weighed in since the 21st of October. I probably won't weight in again until the 19th which is my two week visit. I'm trying not to concentrate on my weight (I can become OC). Hope that this is enough. If not, let me know and I can go weigh in and update.

Yeah, I have to do low carb, high protein diet for two weeks and then liquids the day before surgery (nothing to eat or drink after midnight since my surgery is scheduled for 8:45am). I have been sampling different things, but the Alpine Punch adn Mango Peach Isopure sounds good. I'll have to check it out. I've tried the unjury (I think that's it, will have to check when I get home) and it tasts good as well.

Yeah!! Approved!!
Congrats!!!
