OK! I am always hearing LapBand slang on here and was wondering if anyone can help out!

Bandster Hell? PB? Sliming? Any other buzz words you can pass along to me? If I'm going to be in this community I need the lingo LOL!

    Bandster Hell- the time period between surgery and when you have enough fills to have restriction. This is because feel like they don't have a band during that period and have to rely on will power to lose weight in the meantime.

    PB- Productive Burp. Burping stuck food back up, but not violently and not like vomiting.

    Sliming- mouth feels with slimey saliva, usually because of being stuck.
