:nervous Im sick of seeing the "large penis post" so I thought I would give "punnanies" ( african for vagina) some time . edie

Just wondering if there are any bandsters here in this forum from my town. Would love to be in contact with you. edie

Our history with the FIRST Americans has always saddened and embarrassed me. edie

Laurend, I had days where I had little energy. I can remember driving to the gym and turning around and leaving at least 2 times. Stupid. I went home and ate some straight up protein. edie

<p>What the hell is happening???</p> <p>edie """ what """".</p>

<p>Lucy,</p> <p> I just wanted to add my two cents.</p> <p> I am almost 3 months at goal and for the first time in my life the weight is staying off . I had always went off my "diet" when I reached goal and went right back to my old habits.</p> <p>My band is there for me still. I eat but get FULL. </p> <p>It is so nice not to be so worried about my next fix of food. I was obsessed before. It was almost a part time job . I always had to make sure I had shopped for food. I couldn't watch a movie unless I had lots of food to go along with it. </p> <p>Best wishes,</p> <p>edie</p>

Very trendy!! edie

Dear Unsure, I hear you. I started getting heavy at age 14 . I yo yo dieted myself to 276lbs in my 40's. When I heard about banding I was scared but the surgery sounded so LESS drastic then bypass which I would not even consider. I knew that in 10 more years I would be HEAVIER. Look into this as much as you can. Even go to a seminar. You don't have to get going on the surgery just go for the education. Get your life back and best wishes, edie

I can only eat a small amount at a time. 2 or 3 shrimp and small amount of veggie. I could probably eat in another hour but I choose not to. I had 2 fills in 6 months (don't know the numbers). edie

I thought the banding would restict me but wow was I wrong. After first fill I could not even eat a 9 or 10 frozen meal. Give it time. edie

I would have been able to go back to a desk job the following Monday after my Wed surgery. I did work a desk job for 17 years (hated it). I have been a pet groomer for 8 years now. edie

sure miss the member list . edie

1. No 2. No edie

What about a Special K meal bar (not snack bar) and small container of fruit (pineapples or mandarin oranges)? Meal bar had 10 g Protein. edie

Yes, I had the same. He explained it by saying it was like my stomach had trama with the fill and needed to adjust again. edie

Where is the old members list? Please. edie
