Bandidos not Banditos



Recommended Posts

LOL, I was just channel surfing and I came across a movie called Bandidos, so I looked it up. It is spelled with a D instead of a T.

You're right, it would be bandida for female, but for a group of mixed people, it would still be bandidos. However, you are also right that it should be "de Mayo" -- how quickly I forget my basic Spanish. LOL

So, I am again changing my siggy, so if anyone wants to copy and paste into their siggy, feel free. :eek:

John was the first of us May folks to post so he got to choose the name.

The technical way to say it was considered but it was decided that mayo Bandidos was a short and fun name.

If I have a vote I would rather not see the name change now.

Got approval last week but I have been really busy moving my 88 yr old dad from CA to PA.

I haven't had time to think about myself and have not posted in awhile.

I didn't have to stress on approval because they sent everything in to Highmark BCBS a week before I thought they would. When I got home from CA a letter was in the mail. I am on schedule for 5/27 and really have the jitters now.

I have been reading everything everyone has been posting and I really appreciate everyone taking the time to share their experience.

Hope everyone is doing well and good wishes to those still waiting.

I still like Banditos, although if we are being correct with Spanish it should indeed be Banditos de mayo.

Why do I like Banditos? Because -ito or -ita means "little" in Spanish. And I sure like the thought of being a little Bandster... :redface:

But I'm too lazy to go change my banner... haha. Too much energy spent at the gym!! Yayyy!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
