Dave_NW 92 Posted November 10, 2011 Dave_NW you made my day! Been a while since I was told I was smart. Thank you! I just thought someone might bring a camera out and say it was a prank, but it is real life crazy people. I am like you I am 51 and want to lose 15 or 20 more but if I don't and stay where I am at I would be happy too. When they pass away at least their caskets will be light , , , sorrythat was rude , , , but they were laughing at me. Cheri You're welcome. Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
123crod 170 Posted November 11, 2011 It feels so good to be able to eat again. If you are too tight please go for that little unfill so worth it!! Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriceaa 16 Posted November 11, 2011 That's insane! It sounds like they have eating disorders and need psychological help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sandy1 1 Posted November 12, 2011 Hard to believe anyone could get the band at 136 pounds (female) . I weighed 185 and the OR nurse told me I was the smallest person she had ever seen getting banded. I am in Houston Texas also and when I go to fills (true Results) I never see people thin like you saw. They must have real issues, I think fills are rather expensive. I got one year of free adjustments with my surgery so have yet to pay. Just wondering where you went? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
123crod 170 Posted November 13, 2011 First crazy people I have met in over 2+ years. But they were enough for a lifetime. Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgmagnolia 1 Posted November 13, 2011 I've had my band for 2 years too but I'd never go that crazy and have it that tight! It can't be healthy and eventually it WILL catch up to them. Sounds like a vicious, contro freak cyle to me. None of us ever want to gain weight and none of us ever want to give up hope of being our dream weight. BUT the gains we've made health wise should be what matters, not if we ever make that magic number or not. They have gone to the extreme for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
