In Need Of A "unconventional" Mentor? ???

Don't adjust your screen, you read this correctly, I was banded in 2006 and have successfully lost, and kept off 170 lbs....and outside of the liquid diet, I discovered a way to still enjoy the same exact foods that got me to enormous proportions, and shed the exta me... I'm more then happy to take anyone who honestly knows eating "Healthy " isn't parts of your vocabulary, as a pupil, mentee, minion, you get the idea, be warned, I'm without a doubt, a few sammiches shy of a picnic, a few volts dim of a watt, in laymen terms, Crazy! So if your curious, serious, and want a Fun mentor, look no further... you have been forewarned!

Steve, I have a question

My mentor has stopped talking to me and I don't know why? :)

Hi Steve

Thank you for your comments to me. You are right, I do live on carbs. What isn't a carb? The 4 main food groups are potato chips, ice cream, soda, and hamburgers.

Ha ha Doodle, he'll be back :)

Ok. Just got banded 12/19/12. I like this thread & these folks, esp Cintucky since i grew up in cincy. Im now in Louisiana. I know what to eat. I eat it & other stuff. I like good food. I like preparing it, sharing it, eating it. I like how food tastes, smells,feels and makes me feel... etc. Im learning to treat it right. Enjoy it. Walk away. Enjoy it next time. Indulge responsibly. Walk away. Try it a different way next time. Enjoy it. & visit it again later... (i am still talking about food right? Lol)

I can live life with this band. Looking forward to the redt of my life with "bandie". liquids? Sure, no prob. Mushies? Sounds like reg food you chew correctly (or mama bird it with a machine).

Lets see, about me. I'm a divorcee (sorry fellas - not dating at the moment) (sorry ladies , i like fellas). i have a high stress 8-5, teenage twins, a foster cat, about to get some foster teens, havent Exercised seriously since 04. Hate swimming. Looking for a big punching bag to put in my livingroom..

I have a bunch of secret recipes of my own. Im a lady that knows what she wants & can find it (I have my ways). i can spell but if i type too fast & dont correct it -well forgive me now, cause i prob wont go back. So, i was intrigued by your initial post & kept reading. now I want in this group & here I am. & oh great guru I am sure I can tap into your expertise soon. But for now I'm enjoying checking out your corner of the web.
