    You know you are a Bandster when the whole family asks "Is it stuck" just by the look on your face.

You know you're a bandster when.... you see a quarter on the ground and can bend down and pick it up without worrying if picking up the quarter will require major back surgery.

When you can look down and see for yourself your shoes are untied...And then not havve to hunt up a chair for yout be able to tie them.

When you can pack a baggie of peanuts to take to the water park and count it as your meal. AND not be hungry the whole day. lol

when you realize that your meals may start out hot, but by time you've finished, they're gonna be ice cold.

when you start asking for separate check when going out with friends cause you're ordering a $5 appetiser for your meal and they're ordering $20 steaks.

Amen to that.

When asked which restaurant you want to go to and you end up choosing something "high end" so the appetizer selection will be more than fried cheese sticks and nachos.

When shortly after a fill you go out to eat and order the french onion soup (still on liquids) and are disappointed that they add cheese and bread to the soup.

Spent my time trying to push the soup out of the bread (bread was lining the bowl and i swear it had like a half inch of cheese melted on top at first i thought they got my order wrong)

When the waiter at your fave restaurant automatically brings you a to go box with your meal cuz he knows you box 2/3 of it up as soon as u get it!

I know what you mean, the waiter at my restaurant only plates half my food and keeps the other half in the kitchen until I'm ready to leave and brings it out in a to-go box.

Your current favorite meal is hot & sour soup....

without the crunchy noodles and all the veggies strained out of it.

Daughter keeps telling me I'm ruining a good bowl of soup! :)

... you force yourself to walk up and down the street in front of your house after walking the neighborhood so you can actually say you walked 30 minutes....

..... during family outings you order a small cup of ice cream as your meal (choices being slim) and you wind up giving half of it to a family member because there's no room...
