Info about my band book (Note: this is not an advertisement!)



Recommended Posts

I'm forced to post this here because my elderly brain has not been able to retrieve a recent post (yesterday or today) in which someone asked me if my band book, Bandwagon, is available for the Nook. I'm not trying to advertise the book (though I've payed LBT plenty for that privilege in the past), just trying to answer another member's question. So, here is the answer. Yes, a Bandwagon Kindle version is available on Amazon, but I warn you in advance that it's got some formatting issues. Nothing horrible, it's still readable, but it's kind of weird. That's because I know virtually nothing about e-books and did a botched (but free) job of converting the manuscript to Kindle format. If you do buy the Kindle version and would like to tell me where I went wrong, I'd be glad to hear it!

Thanks,

Jean

Do you have a different kind of e-reader? Or are you interested in the print version?

A few weeks ago at JCP I watched a mom pushing a stroller. Seated in the stroller was a toddler who was busily doing something with a techno-thingie (ipod?). A TODDLER!

The book is fabulous, and I can say so without fear of being an advertisement, cause Jean did not pay me. I think it ought to be a per-requisite to surgery!

I love this book! I'm getting banded in February 6, and I can't out this book down!! It's honest, to the point, and quite funny at times! Definitely helping me prepare for my new life!!

So can I get your book on my iPad? How would I do that? Do I have to have a certain amt of memory on my iPad? Technically challenged!

I'm even more techno challenged than you are. The e-book is formatted (not very neatly) for Amazon Kindle products and I don't know if that's compatible with an iPad. You might find more info about it on Amazon. There's a Kindle help forum (see below) where Kindle users might be able to help you. Or ask about it wherever you got your iPad?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
