BUSFRIVER: I remember reading a post of yours saying you accidently mispelled your user name..something I just found if you go under User CP you can scroll all the way to the bottom and request a user name change...nothing wrong with your name now I just remember you saying it should be busdriver :sneaky: just as an FYI:) -

Oh you probably would have eventually had to have it taken out even if you didnt have the surgery.....its our diets and how we eat that makes so many ppl have to have their gb out! But good luck to you!!!!!!! And its one less organ you have to worry about :ohmy: -

1. Are you exercising? 2. It is very common to hit plateaus in the wt loss process! You just need to change it up a little bit, add more exercise or cut a little more on your calories or drink more...also it takes 3500 cal to gain or lose 1 lb- just as an fyi 3. It is completely normal to go thru psychological issue related to your body image. Oftentimes our minds dont catch up as fast as the weight comes off. ..keep reinforcing the positives to yourself...you'll get there!! 4. as far as being really full one day and hungry the next----thats just how the cookie crumbles :smile2: kidding no I do that too........your stomach swells with the band some day and others it doesnt or your mind may say I'm hungry when youre really not...old habits are hard to break! Just remember that the band is a tool, you have to work on your habits as well. You can do it, you've had great wt loss so far and I suspect that once you get over this hurdle you will continue with excellent wt loss! Remember all the reasons you had the surgery and if you get too down and out go put on one of those 3xl shirts and see how much youve change!! Good luck and hope to see you at the meetings! -

Theyre fruit punch flavored shots of protein. They have about 26 grams of protein in them...theyre not TOO bad tasting but they come in like a test tube looking thing and you just shoot it...well it takes me like 3 shots to get it all in...but usually you find them either in the vitamin section or the exercise equipment section at walmart...its a good way to get in your protein if youre having trouble -

I dont take calcium supplements I just take 2 chewable centrums daily. But if you want to take Calcium get the chewables. They have them in orange flavor at walmart and they also have the chocolate candy ones but you have to eat more of those to get your daily intake whereas the chewable orange ones I think you only have to take 2 to get your daily intake. -
I'm a good presenter!

Sponsers: Depending on how much they donated could get their company logo printed on the sign, shirts (if we do shirts) and flyers to advertise them for the band. That was part of what was racking thru my head yesterday. Cuz you can have a big banner made to put up in the park showing everyone where to go! Give the event a name...Like Banders Reunion or something...put a logo under that like "don't dig your grave with your own knife and fork" Then around all that you list the sponsers. There is a local sign shop here and theyre not that expensive! Just some thoughts.... Guest speakers, another thought Activities for the kids like face painting and bobbing for apples...make it like a festival!!!!
-
That's one thing I hope that we can work on changing....I would like to work on getting sponsers like from md offices hospitals, event his forum...whomever we can get and even hopefully get sponsored by the park that way they can at least give us 1/2 off admission or something!

Surely they'll give a refund due to the rain! If not give me the number and I'll call and get you a refund!
-
If not rain I'll bring buns...how many ppl are we expecting?!
