I love it. I am going to have to go to that list for new words to use when I read, yet again, from someone that "the band is just a tool" Thanks for this post. :)

The only "Tools" in all of this are the cretins who keep referring to their Lap bands as "tools".

I think this whole "tool" thing got started (or was at least promoted) by those two ladies who started BandedLiving or whatever it's called. The "Spam Sisters" as I like to call them.....they would visit here every couple of weeks and tell people to visit their blog, where they are promoting their new book....and a "pay" website they seem to want to push. One of the "ladies" doesn't even refer to her Band as a Band....it's her "tool"...........

She is "at one" with her tool......

I'll bet she is......

I prefer "minion". "Whatchamacallit" is good too, but I use that regularly when I forget words, so my family would not know what I was talking about.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
