juliacleone 1 Posted August 23, 2007 Happyhayley15 - I meant the shy stuff for you. :embarassed: Hey Donna, I will be banded on 9-28. I am starting out at 221. Not too far above you before the band. I am a therapist, for sexually abused children. I saw in your profile that you are going to school for psychology. Just wanted to touch base since it seems we have stuff in common. I live in Auburn, AL. We are both southern girls too! I am very excited about getting banded. I will go to Mexico. Write back if you want Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peaches9 3 Posted August 28, 2007 It dosn't seem that long ago that I was a "virgin" too (Donna you made me laugh!) I quess I am a FILL VIRGIN as I just got my top up yesterday at TBLC Everything went well, and I am eating ever so gently today... Scrambled egg at 6 a.m. and now a Pudding/w Pro. powder... I am looking forward to tuna salad at lunch (can't beleive I am looking forward to fish?) but the more experienced bandsters say fish is tolerated well and is moist. Getting in all the Water is tricky, as I am used to just Chugging it all down. Oh well, lots of NEW habits to learn for us all. Good luck on your journey, and post often... I love coming onto this site. as it keeps BOTH my hands busy [wink, wink] and my computer is far away from the fridge LOL :heh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donna D 1 Posted August 28, 2007 Peaches you kill me. You weight is just melting off. I am still able to chug my Water and I think I have 5.75 ccs. Why don't you private message me with your address and I will give you directions with no 4's in it. xo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peaches9 3 Posted August 28, 2007 Oh Donna, my weight is not melting off... my 240 start wgt is NOT what I started at in my Band Journey. I had lost the first chunk (lol) by WW, Hypnosis, Meridia, excersise etc. but then after a whole year of plateauing I got scarred that I was going to put my 50 back on plus more!(again, like I've always done in the past) So that's when I made up my mind to do the Lap band once and for all, so in my signature, you'll see 240/190ish/ my current wgt today/ and my goal of 130... So there you have it in a nutshell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
