Just for fun - misconceptions?



Recommended Posts

My mom's friend (75 yr old) thought that the band was on the outside and I could tighten it like a belt.

Another misconception is about the term being "banded" among those who raise goats, means the tying of a male goats' testicles tightly so that they turn black and fall off (a form of neutering).

Haha

Isn't there a string that hangs out in your Lab and you pull it to make it tighter so you dont over eat ?

Then you loosen it when you want to eat more right ?

All I could think of is a doll I had when I was a kid , you pull the string tighter and her hair tightened inside her head and when it was loosened her hair grew LOL

Yah its funny how people think. My least favorite comment is the one from a couple of friends ( so called friends ) said that No way would they do such a risky thing , a cowards way out . They could loose weight if tehy really wanted to. I felt like saying " Well obviously you dont really want to " haha

Sometimes you learn who your true friends are when you go throught things like this. Those two friends dont know I have the band I mentioned it to them before . I am working so hard to exercise and be sucessful I just figure they dont need to know I will make their chin drop and they can think that I did it with no band . So there ! haha
