    Looking into lapband..........

    I am considering getting lap-band and am scared of getting into something that I will regret. I would like go get some feed back from all of you about this, what can I eat, can I eat the food I LOVE? Is the liquid diet really bad? Thanks, Will

    Hello Bandsters!!

    Long time no post, sorry about being MIA but I just wanted to let you know that Petunia and I had a baby boy. Wanted to share a pic of him. He is the best thing that has ever happened to us. We will try to be more social. Trying to get back on track bandwise too.

    Did I or did I not have surgery?????

    I have the big boy band too. I am at 3cc and am still kinda loose. I think that 4cc will do it, but after I had it done it was like I never had it at all.

    UHC has my paperwork!

    UHC came through for me. You are just going to have to be patient. You are lucky you didn't have to go jump throught hoops to get approved. I got put through the ringer with another Ins Co before I got approved with UHC.

    bummed out

    You just let me at her!! I will defend your honor DallasDoll!! :rambo I am going to need a bucket of tar, feathers (assorted colors), a jar of Claussen gerkin pickles, and a 9 Iron. That chick is just pissed off that she was not approved to get a Band. You tell her to come here and start preachin about the Band V.S. RNY. All these banded honey's will eat her alive, and her little tummy too!

    port placement

    I have little fat on top of my abs it is all on the other side. My port sticks out but then again I am still healing. The Doc said that it was going to stick out a little. But there are three different type ports that I know of I will attach the pics...... 2ports.jpg show the relative size difference. A/P II long taper.jpg is the same size as the smaller port in the photo 2ports.jpg. This is a newer port and replaces the smaller port in the other photo.

    Banded for Life.............

    The doc said that there is a thinner port that they make and why he didn't use one on me, go figure? But I am going to have him get one and put it in this fall. It sticks out alot, I keep knocking it on stuff too. My cat Chile makes biscuits on it trying to push it back in when I am sleeping! PosiPort Low Profile Access Port
  17. Well, I am almost healed and am going to that Dr. today. It seems that all my fat is under my abs so my port it poking out a little. I hope that it settles down. I thought that it was going to be more hidden.

    Journey to Band Land............

    Well, just two more days until I am banded. I have been thinking about all the shit I have gone through to get here. But that is all in the past. I am looking forward to all the stuff I am going to be able to have No more of... No more fad diets, No more diet pills, or any other meds, No more stretch marks, No more BUFFET, No more stress eating....................No more being called Husky,No more back pain, No more shortness of breath, No more getting pressure from my family to lose weight, No more fearing the middle seat, No more excessive sweating, No more man boobs, No more Dunlap disease, No more shirts at the beach........No more stretchy waistband work pants.........No more dressing to hide myself.............. What all did you get to quit?????? My girl said that when we get fit and trimmed that we can take a ski vacation! I loved doing that when I was a kid. I can't remember a time when I was totally happy with my body, but who ever is........ My parents are real jerks when it comes to my weight. They don't think before they speak, but I am sure that you all can relate. I am wondering when I lose the weight what they are going to bitch about. Maybe I will get a tattoo!!!!! and a Harley!!!!! I am looking forward to the experience and to getting to know that skinny guy I know is under all these extra layers. Being overweight made me the person I am today, and I am a good person, hell I am a great person. But since I know it all I think that it is time that I get mine. You treat people how you want to be treated, right?

    Journey to Band Land............

    I have to be there at 5:30am, think that there should be a law against that! But I guess I am going to get it out of the way and have the rest of the day to go sky diving!! HEEHEE... I wish you all the best of luck tomorrow....

    Journey to Band Land............

    Well, that costs money........... I think that I am going to try and scam Subway into giving me my own commercial. Maybe TrimSpa too!!!!!!!!! If anything I think that I will get some cool clothes. I get depressed when I see things that I really like and can't wear. I am getting nervous now!!!!!!

    Journey to Band Land............

    I hope that I don't have to stay over night like my Petunia. I am on liquids and am not going to have a "Last Meal". Don't think that I am going to need one I have pretty good reserves. I will post when I am able to get to the computer. As for the Harley, I have been told that if I buy it I will be sleeping with it............ :ermm

    Bad Blood............

    He is just one of those people that think that there is another way. Maybe he thinks that I did try all those diets and workout programs. He would rather throw a pill at the problem than deal with alternative methods. I take over 10 meds to deal with the problem and the side effects. I have been told by more than one Doc that I am going to have to be on meds for the rest of my life. I am out to prove them wrong!

    Bad Blood............

    I have a blood problem that makes me have crazy high cholestrol, my Tri's are killer high too. I take many meds to keep them in check. They cause all sorts of problems with side effects. I guess that my question is had anyone else been there? I will be getting banded on the 3-18-05 and am ready for the trip but my Primary Care Doctor is telling me that I should rethink my decision. He is the picture of health too, so there are always comments from the peanut gallery.
  25. I am still in shock and now I am getting scared. I think that it is the fear of not knowing. My girl is doing well since she had it done. I just hope I am that brave. Well, I am off to go binge on Krystals sliders with cheese.......................haha!! J/K I am sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have been a busy BoY!
