No, they have to go through your vagina to adjust it.

Shee-it... Well if I'dda knowd that, I would have done it too and had it tightened. Hubby's been complaning about the extra room up there. And it makes all those "farty" sounds when we... well... it makes the dogs start crying.

What about my husband? Should I tell him? Do you think he will really notice 5 cuts on my belly and that I don't eat real food for a month?

I dunno, does he f*ck or pay attention to you now? Doubt it.

You will have some extra room for awhile and then it will start to sag! So get it while you can!

Insurance will pay for the band IF:

You are too cute for words

Plan to eat Whoppers for lunch on the way home from the hospital

Your IQ is lower than your BMI

You are allergic to donkeys and pickles

You never plan to visit Mexico or Argentina

You plan to have triplets 2 mos. after surgery

Your boyfriend is named Willie

No exceptions!

TPG

Please note the BMI/IQ requirement. It's possible to confuse the 2 numbers...hence your need for the band.

You mean my already three-inch vulva will SAG? So I'll have to start rolling them up like my titties? Gawd, I hate my band.

Crap, looks like I got mine in time! I don't have a boyfriend named Willie.

I have a question? I was told by my neighbors mommas great aunt Ethel that I can do my own fills. just like giving myself a diabetes shot. Can I use the pickle juice left over from your pickles for my fill? I want to fill it up real quick cause I don't want to have the bandster hell I hear about. I got banded 3 days ago.

Pickle juice MIGHT erode the band from the inside (note, drinking it is fine). However, I have noticed that liquid detergent works really well.

Yep, that'll work. Pickle juice cures all.

LIAR!!! What do YOU know, you unbanded freak?? Sheesh, get your effin' facts straight! You could do somebody some real damage, you fruit loop!

Sorry, you're f*cked. Thinner, yes, but you look like a melted candle, right? That's what you get for eating too many Big Macs in the first place. Deal. Maybe join the circus as the amazing melting woman.

It is easy to give your own fills! You might even ask Ethel to come over and give you some help. Obviously she is an expert and I would trust her with a needle full of pickle juice!

Make sure you check with your surgeon first, but if you can't wait until Monday - go ahead and just check in with him/her ASAP next week!:confused:
