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

7_5_142.gif I love this thread! I have a few. Mine aren't funny tho.

1.) When your favorite food pre surgery is no longer your favorite food.

personal experience here. my taste has changed. I hate bread now!

It doesn't get stuck, I just don't like it, not even grilled cheese!

2.) You think about how much you are chewing your food. chew, chew,

chew!

3.) you stop studying chairs to see if they are sturdy enough to hold you

4.) When you show the waiter/tress your LB card stating to let you order from the kids menu.

5.) people who know you have the band watch what you eat

6.) falling in love all over again......with garage sales and thrift stores.(because your loosing so fast you don't want to buy brand new yet!)

I just had this happen for the first time like 10 minutes ago. I guess my family will know, but when it happened, I just got up and walked away and my hubby just kept talking and then eventually he asked if everything was OK...LOL.:biggrin2:

When you pull the insides out of an egg roll to eat because the bread on it made you stuck. lol

when you keep things like peanuts and beef jerky for an emergency meal instead of the candy bars that used to take up space. lol:thumbup:

36_11_6.gif OMG, Girl! You just described my goodie drawer at work. Too funny!

...when the hottest rumor at work is that you're bulemic. (The girls just HATE it when I run into the stall to PB - yuck!)

HA HA!! THis is very funny to me because I work with all men and they had an intervention with me because they thought I had an eating disorder:thumbup:

My doctor gave me a card that he wrote on that says I have a medical reason for needing to order kids meals. I show that at restaurants when they give me crap for ordering off the kids menu

You go to Las Vegas on vacation and the only souvenirs you come back with are the barf bags from the plane.:blink:

I keep these and a 1/4 cup measuring cup in my purse!!!

:biggrin2: when.....you go to Denny's and order a grand slam breakfast only to share it with two of your children and all 3 of you get full from it! :biggrin2:

You know your a bandster when...

Your boobs look like tubesocks with baseballs in them

LOL!! My sister had gastric bypass and calls her boobs "chesticles" :blink:

...when you leave a trail of empty bottles of water every where because you're saving them to refill later and are constantly getting remarks from loved ones like, "why don't you throw away all those bottles in your car?" "gosh you have a lot of bottles." blah,blah,blah...

When you tie up your pants with a ribbon because you dont have any belts and your pants are waaayyyy tooooo biggggg.

. . . when you don't want to buy new clothes because what fits this week will be too small in a month and moneys a-waisting.

. . . when a very small glass of icy cold water first thing in the morning causes all kinds of weird gurgling sounds for the 20 minutes.
