skbishop78 0 Posted April 10, 2006 Hey TN bandsters.... Hope everyone is ok with the weather that we all had this past weekend. It was so scary here in Spring Hill....it hailed for like 15 minutes and piled up like it had snowed. We didn't have alot of damage other than hail damage...I really hope that everyone and their families are ok.....everyone check in to let us know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kim2bhealthy 3 Posted April 10, 2006 Stacey - We fared well here in the Chattanooga area. Storms coming from that direction always seem to break up or weeken when they approach our area. I swear they weeken and split when they get to all the mountains around here. We had the thunder, lightening and rain, but that was about it. That was enough, it had my dogs scared to death! I hope all of you Tennessee Bandster and your familys fared as well as we did here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisac 0 Posted April 16, 2006 In Woodbury we got lots of hail damage and a tornado destroyed 2 homes, but we are all okay and that is all that matters. Hope you all are okay too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LapBandFan 22 Posted April 27, 2006 Hey all, long time not talk to..... life gets so busy.... well I got over my allergy symptoms and no more drainage, but as some you already know, I had to go for an emergency complete unfill on April 10th. It has been horrible! I have absolutely no restriction and stay hungry all the time, my scales are up and down, I am so frustrated. I have gained 7 pounds for sure since the unfill. It is amazing how much I depend on the restriction! I am trying to focus on low carb, more Water and more exercise, but my work schedule don't allow for much of the exercise part....I get to get my first fill/adjustment week after next. Please pray for me that I don't gain anymore before then! Thanks for all your support! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystjin 0 Posted May 27, 2006 Thanks Stacey! I came back to my part time job 3 days after surgery. I answer the phone at a car dealership. I'm a little more sore today than yesterday from sitting (with my clothes on). At home I just wear a t shirt and loose pants. I'm glad school is out and I don't have to worry about that for a while. Well, another week anyway, I'm working summer school for 2 weeks. Things are going good so far. I am more hungry today, hope that isn't a trend!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimber200 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Hi I am new to this site I live in memphis,tennessee and I have been overweight all of my life. I am considering having bariactric surgery. I am so confused about what procedure I should have (lapband or laproscopic gastricbypass) I would like some answers from people that have had the lapband. I weigh 365lbs. I feel that I may not have a lot of success with the band so please help me in my decision making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
