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?

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
