I hate it when people post just to post.....

In the interests of LJM's blood pressure, I think until after Joshua arrives we should refrain from posting links to "cheated and I want vindication" threads. We all know what those threads do to her.

I am cold.

Want cold? Last night got to -20. High today was -5. Next few days are the same.

Are kettles only black? I think I have seen them in other colors

Ha!!!

You know what shits me though? I DID do everything right post op. I didn't "cheat", I was scared out of my wits of eating the wrong thing too soon. I was hungry as hell but obeyed my Dr's instructions to the word. But, 18ish months later, I still had a minor slip from being filled a little too tight. Wasn't anything I ate or did myself my Dr said, but had I not listened to my body and tried to endure it might have ended in me losing my band. I had a fluoro and it was "only slight" so we caught it in enough time to just unfill and let things resettle for a couple of weeks. Then I was right as rain and have been since! These monkeys that are eating burgers and freaking jumbo jets a week out of surgery I bet never have a problem. Its murphys law against me or something.....Grrrrr. I haven't been a 100% perfect bandster (I love chocolate and wine too much for that), but I think I've done ok being my Dr's most successful case.....

Well, She....how do you REALLY feel???

I like burgers.

Me too!

A couple of co-workers were down last week from Minneapolis. I asked one why they lived there (b/c of the cold). They both said, "I don't know!"

Okay I admit I didnt read the story but really... 275 lbs gets you a zoo MRI? Wow. That means I would have needed a Sea World Orca MRI machine.

Pjtp..I went swim suit shopping today and it wasn't painful at all...I used to hate it ..it was actually fun...

[Fanny Adams 7]

i'm 15 months out - no slip. but like she stated a page back, i think it's best to have as little fill needed for restriction/weightloss .....today i had .25 taken out. i swear that pouch test KILLED my appetite completely.

luluc, do you have a link to the details of how that pouch test thingy works? Since I had that kink in my tubing fixed in October, I've been feeling like I am back in Bandster Hell in the pre-fill days, although my surgeon swears he put all the Fluid back (6cm at the time). I've had another fill since then but it was only 0.25ml, as the fill previous to the operation of 0.5ml turned out to be too much and I had to have 0.25ml removed. I'm still really struggling with hunger though and have lost all of my bandster habits of small bites and chewing thoroughly as I haven't had a problem with PBing or anything since the op. I'm eating fairly "normal" sized meals and just barely maintaining (been gaining and losing the same 3kg since October). I'm scheduled for another fill in February but in the mean time, I'm desperate for anything that might help to curb my appetite.

Way too cold for my bones. I am freaking out because they said it is supposed to be 20 when we wake up on Friday. I am going to move to Florida where it is warm. Oh, wait, I already live there!

You should ask for some of those blankets they warm up in the hospital, they are wonderful. I am going to have to go check out that picture.

I think I have an attitude tonight. No, I definitely have one. It is not safe. The PMS evil side is definitely rearing it's ugly head.
