How to Eat Like a Bandster



Recommended Posts

Thank you so much for this post. I've been struggling since January and have had many stuck episodes lately. I'm finally going back to see my surgeon tomorrow after 5 months. I had my surgery in Oct 2011. I'm going to dig out all of the materials I was given when I was banded and reread them.

Thanks again!

Cyndy

Cyndy, it never hurts to put yourself through a band refresher course!

Jean, I agree about the refresher course. I sure wish I would have read your book "Bandwagon" before my surgery. I think I would have handled many of the problems and concerns that I had shortly after surgery when I entered bandster hell and stayed there for nearly 4 months.

Reading the book now, I'm not sure I would have really understood many of the challenges I was about to face. But it's so good to be able to read now and understand. Many "aha" moments!

I know what you mean. When you're just starting out, you're dealing with an overwhelming amount of new information and new experiences. It's hard to keep it all straight at first.

Hello we're can I buy this Bandwagon Book

You can click on my Bandwagon ads here on LBT (you may have to wait for them to cycle onto your screen because the ad spots are shared with other advertisers), or you can go to jean-onthebandwagon.blogspot.com and look at the purchase options on the left hand side of the screen.

Thanks for your interest!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
