(((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) (((((((((((((((LUV)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) (((((((((((((((PRAYERS))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Im so happy 4 u and cant wait to talk to u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could hear his voice singing it in my head too!! how funny. And Yaeehhh Kathy!! Sing like no ones listning!

This guy sounds sooo like my x husband, I dont need u to dig, I can tell from his manipulive behavior hes a lier and a cheater. Thats prob why him and his wife seperated in the fist place if they did at all.

Ok guys!!! Fess up and help us single girls out pphhuuullleeezzzz!! I tried to get some response on Eileenja's "is ur stomich loud?" thread.....but didnt really get much so here is its very own thread, I dont start them often so flatter me and gimme some insight guys! :cool: Here goes........When I get banded, I am not going to want to tell men about it when we are planning our first date, specially since i am not even telling my own family. So I am worried about him thinking im anorexix (lol that would be the day!!) the gurggles, the gas, the "strange noises" in general, the slimes, the PB's....so dish the dirt and spill some of ur most embarassing dating banded moments!!!!!!!!! Common since when did u guys get shy.

Kathy, I have the same worry about Mexico. I mean how horrible if I were to die in Mexico, specially since only 1 person knows I am going. How would my family react, what about my daughter? But lets look at all the people here who have been banded there and lived to post and post and post and post in this addictive website. Besides, we have chosen a great doctor, and I was told that he has NEVER had 1 death yet! Im sure we should be more worried about sticking to our liquid diets, yuck! I am soooo x-cited 4 u!!!!!!!!!! *****singing in Mexican rythem*****Kathy's getting banded, Kathy's getting banded

what is keloided??????????????????????????????????????

haha jenna, I think it is the panties that make hers seem a little sexier!! lol. When ur glue is off ull have to put on some hot undies and redo them to try for a 1 up

Holly cow!!!!!!!!!u have a GREAT TUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!Im speachless....u have .just givin me so much hope. What was ur # before u went for surgery. Mine is pretty low, 32. And just so u know girl, i love what curves u have left in your hips, u look hot HOT H-O-T!!!!!!!!

Oh honey! im sorry. At least u came clean before the gurggles!!lol I dont want to tell anyone after i get my band. I will be a closet bandster, and of course once i date someone and things get serious i will come clean, but ur story makes me worry. I have read all the posts on closet bandsters, but there isnt a thread for us sinlgle girls and tips to help...common girls fess up!!!

thank u thank u Jenna! Ur the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel much better! If someone wants to post some 1 yr post or like 6 months that would be great too!!!

ok i am single and thought i was the only one who worried about this too. Also get really worried about the PBs. AHHHHH. All u bandsters fess up and tell us how to stop this before we prebanders have learn from experiance. I think it could be fun if people told some funny embarassing dating/band related stories.

aaawwww, i feel soooo bad for u. I once went to a doctor who put me on a medical watched liquid diet for three weeks and it was L-A-M-E. The worst part wasnt even the hunger, it was those awful things they made me drink. If i could have picked my own liquids, like soup or whatever, it would have been ok. But those awful shakes...PUKE!!! Remember its only 2 weeks....its only 2 weeks...its only 2 weeks...hang in there!!!

ok so i do alot of musical things. my entire family consists of musicians. iv'e been going to conserts since i was a baby and the boys in the bands would always call the groupies Bandaids. When i came to this site and had to think of a name i thought is was cute.

anything by rage against the machine

my mom did it and she LOVES is. It took a few sessions but i called and asked and she said it has been permanant and all the red marks r gone. she said it was a little painfull but they will give u a numbing cream to help. and she did her bakini area. i think ur face should be a little less painfull since it doesnt rub when u walk! lol

rachel, thank u for sharing. that was a great detailed account of what to expect post op. i feel like i have learned alot. hope u r feeling better soon and post on. im sure some of the others who have been there can offer more support than me and share their similar experiances. U DID IT!!!!!!! way to go girl.

i am so happy for u. Make sure to check in with all of us here when u are felling up to it. I will say a prayer for u.

ohh my god!!! the best valintine ever

i agree.. this is a good post with both sides making their case. also the rebuttle does not even dispute the fact that his colon was punctured and his liver lasserated. Isnt that the main point? not the price or the date, what silly minor details in such a tradgity. Whoever wrote that rebuttle origanaly missed the point compleatly.

yah, i am curious too...why not drinking with meals?

I go in for my physical today. Need to have some blood work done. Hopefully everything goes well. I cant remember the last time I went in for a physical. Wow, my first real step twords getting my band. Can't believe it.

That is so terrible!!! How could a doctor puncture your colon and lacerate your spleen without even realizing it. Why would a doctor even be in your colons area? I think that is the worst Mexico story I've heard yet. I am so glad you seem to be doing better and thank God you even survived. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your wife. I don't know of any Dr's here in the US who only charge 12k but have heard they are out there.

I already did my breast. I havn't been banded yet but I have heard that you can get them done first. Of course I have heard that you should wait too. My doctor thought getting them done while I still had a weight problem was okay. He would not however perform the tummy tuck untill I had lost more weight. He wants me as close to ideal weight as possible for the tuck. I know alot of people get thigh and arm tucks too. I am hoping because I am young I won't have to do this. The youngr you are the more elastisity you should have. But I am down 40 pounds and my stomich looks like a kangaroo pouch, hanging down to my special place, if you know what i mean I cant wait to get that tummy tuck. So to answer your question, I don't really think there is a general time table to this subject. Just very individual to each person's needs. My breasts cost $9,500 for lift and implants and tummy tuck was quoted $10,000. I hear sometimes insurance may help pay. My insurance doesn't cover anything that has to do with weight loss accept group classes for diet and walking.

Well I just got back and check up went okay. Bad news is, either my scale is off or I've gained a little weight...oooppppsss. Well they did some bloodwork to check my thyroid and for diabetes ect. Sure all will turn out fine. It really wasn't to difficult or stressfull, Kathy. I don't really have too much advise to give you. Since you and I are both self pay we don't have the same hoops to jump threw that some of the others do. I really wont know anything for a few days untill my blood work comes back.

LOL ohh my god that was funny DeLarla. I was laughing so hard i had every one in the office run in here to see what was so funny. I used to want to teach highschool english and that thread made me remember why.
