Seriously Embarrassed !
john the tentman replied to Destined*Lady*D's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Broke several chairs Had trouble fitting in airline seats and always needed a seat belt extender. Once had to buy an extra seat on a flight. Broke several plastic chairs. Could not eat at a restaurant with plastic chairs. Could not fit into restaurant booth. Would you like a booth or a table? Sat on the edge of many chairs I could not fit in And the worst...could not up and out of low sofas. Funny now... Not so much then. -
Way to go!!!!!!!!

December 2012 --- Band Buddies Unite!
john the tentman replied to LadyLeigh2012's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have I have also heard some comments of the easy way out... if this is the easy way out I have been fooled.. Changing your lifestyle completely is not easy. But the real point is I don't care what people think I did this for me and my life... any judgement on anybody's part is their problem. And at least I will be around to enjow my life for a while more. Life is not a reality show or a crititical point that I need to prove to anyone.... but myself. Easy or not, this is the way I have chosen and am damn glad I have had some success at it. Tried other things before.... weight always came back.... time to change my life.... not somebody else's opinion. -

Here goes guys... I was also banded on the 13th of December feeling pretty good... also had hernia repair. That hurts a litttle bit. Today I feel much better... getting my eating in order.
