I write a blog about my LapBand journey and I was thinking one day that it would be helpful to know all the weight loss surgery "lingo" everyone was using. I posted a glossary of terms on my blog and I just wanted to post the link to it in the hopes that it helps new people feel more informed! I know it would have been useful to me when I first started, so I just want to help out my fellow weight loss surgery peeps

Even if you aren't a "newbie," go ahead and read it and let me know if you think I should add any words or terms to the list! Thanks!!

This is great -- thanks so much! I look back six or eight months ago and remember all the confusion.

i think i was most grateful when i finally learned what pb and sliming were. i always called it spit up. lol.

Great job. I am not a newbie, but hthese are great for those who are not in the know! I hope that folks read it! Karen..aka.kll724

Thanks for all the compliments! I might post this again in different forums just to get the word out to more people who might need it!

Very helpful. Thanks

really helpful...I could never understand what a NUT is/was - thank you!

Outstanding! This is great, I wish you you of written it a few months earlier, lol ! When I first joined here I kept coming across a lot of these terms and would google them so I could figure out what everyone was talking about! You are going to be a blessing for a lot of newbies and ones that are still trying to figure it out! Thanks!

Very helpful! I'm working on my blog now and will probably make or link a LapBand glossary. Will help friends and family interpret what I'm saying. Lol.
