Okay, with a constant influx of new people, it gets very confusing to explain the jargon that is specific to WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) and LBT (Lap Banding Together) as well as the Lapband (Laparoscopic Gastric Banding) to new Bandsters.

So how about a glossary thread that has been stickied?

We can appoint one victim to do it, or we can all post there and help the new folks out.

I mean: Fill, Unfill, Port, Port incision, PB (what if you PB a PB&J?) WLS, Swedish vs Inamed, restriction, etc.

What about it? Huh?

Great Idea!!!!

I think we should do the same with publications regarding the lapband. Have a lapband library sticky and list the books and authors, etc. Maybe info in medical journals in regards to the band would be good too. Teresa

I've thought it would be nice to have all those helpful links in one place. Maybe it could all be combined?

If someone starts those threads I will sticky them.
