    Really Need A Buddy?

    I recently had surgery (April 12, 2012). I can be your band buddy.

    Wednesday 2Nd Is My Day...

    I didn't tell anyone until some started to notice my weight dropping. I didn't want my firefighters to treat me different. Once they knew what was going on with me the understood and they supported me. Some of them got concerned because of the rapid weight loss. Good Luck....

    The Band And Periods?

    I had issues with mine and I just was banded less then a month ago. I felt like my band was to tight and was very uncomfortable. I called my doctor he told me my hormones were out of whack and to take it easy. The first day was rough, but after that I was fine. Some say it is due to less calories and body weight dropping. My body was/is confused.
  4. I got banded on the 12th of April 2012 so this is the first time in years since I have been off my cycle. So far it's been rough. Feeling sick to my stomach not being able to hold stuff down. Feeling drained or like the life has been sucked out of me. Has anyone have problems with "girl week" since they got banded? Is this going to be a constant problem or a phase? I'm just ready to crawl back in bed, but my day is just staring in the sandbox.

    Girl Week

    It made two for me this month. After the first day I had no problems. My doctor told me if I had any issues or concerns to call him. I am now back on track.

    Girl Week

    I got a hold of my doctor last night. He told me usually it happens to some females, but not all since we are different. I am feeling a lil better today. I am staying hydrated and at least drinking a protein drink.

    Why

    I live in Kuwait and I have been wanting to do this since I got here in 2008. My soon to be husband wanted me to do this for the right reason. This is for me and only me. To feel good about myself and enjoy wearing cute clothes. I recently got banded less then a month ago. I am full of engery and motivated to work out at least 2 times a day. This descision have changed mine and soon to be husbands life style. Living life with no regrets!

    I....am...banded

    Phazyme worked really well for me. I was banded on the 12th of April 2012.
  9. They have whey protein unflavored at GNC. That might help.
  10. Well it's been almost week since I got banded. Still a little sore, but I am managing as the days go by. I know have a full button sound other say they experienced the "mating call of a pterodactyl" or that's what's my co workers call it. Will this pass?? Or will I always have this sound?? My boyfriend thinks it a cute little sound, but as for me I find it a little annoying especially when I am in public.
