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

When your walking through your livingroom and your night gown slips off down around your SHOULDERS and falls to the floor!!!

When you have dinner at your house with your friends and Demand everyone take the leftovers home cause they will go to waste.

When you're at the check-out stand at the grocery store and you decide you "just can't eat all that food" and start restocking their shelves!!!

DON"T SHOP HUNGRY!!! LOL

I still don't get why so many people puke... I've never puked up my food... Are you over eating? Eating too fast? Are your bites too big? I feel bad for you guys!

What's a PB? What's with the slime? I don't get these things??? LOL

You know your a bandster when you have to ask THESE questions!!!

I didn't have a PB until just last month. I have been banded since April 07!! I have slimed A LOT, but never Pb'd. I was a weird experience and I can not imagine doing it over and over again like some people. The sliming is gross and I hate it, but it does happen when I eat too big a bite and something gets stuck...

You know when........

You go out to eat with a friend who knows you have the lapband and she proceeds to ask you after every menu item "can you eat that?" while the waitress is looking at you with a puzzled look on her face.....

it takes you longer than anyone else to order food off of the menu and you rattle of the list of foods in your head you can't eat or would rather like to keep down after you get finished.

Sliming is the excessive spit you create when you get stuck.

You know your banded when you know the answers to the question and the visual of you sliming is still in your head.

You know your banded when your BF orders 2 burgers for himself and offers you bites off his burger...knowing that is all your going to eat lol

when you lose weight during that time of the month (since you're tighter) instead of gaining

When you buy a new fabulous fitting outfit to wear on a trip, pack it in your suitcase after purchasing it 2 weeks before your trip, get to your destination, put it on, and find that it absolutly falls off of you!
