A sad "know your a Bandster when"

You roll over in the middle of the night, and feel a bump in the bed. Thinking you have a rolled up sheet only to find out it is just your LOOSE SKIN !!!!!!! ;-(

A thimble of vodka gives you a buzz- a cap full gets you wasted.

You can't remember the last time you used the tablespoons - they dont fit into anything your eating out of

When a student you had last year in second grade moves away before surgery, just comes back at the end of third grade and has no clue who you are. He actually asked me who I was. I told him I was his second grade teacher. He said "No you werent, I had Mrs. Paxson!" Then I said, oh, but I am Mrs. Paxson! His eyes got huge and he said "you look so different!" Out of the mouths of babes I guess :tt1:

You order an M&M for dessert and you take 1/2 of it home in a doggie bag.

You shave an ice cube to make a sno-cone.

you know you are -- when you don't ride around walmarts parking lot to wait on a closer spot to park.

You know you are banded when you walk into a place to purchase some food or Snacks, and you look and walk away and not buy a thing.

You know your banded when people who know you before and then they see the new you later and ask what you have done and all you tell them is that you are eating less and doing excerise, and see the look on there face.

When you put on clothes you just bought and they do not fit anymore.

You know you're a bandster when:

1. You feel like a bulemic from all the purging, but haven't had the joy of binging.

2. You and your banded mother can go on vacation and the two of you together can eat for less than $40 a day.

3. You realize just how screwed up clothing makers are, why isn't a size 16 a size 16 no matter who makes the pants?

4. You feel a bump under you breasts while showering and wonder if you can feel your band. You ask the question to the doc at support group and get told no. A few showers later you feel the bump again this time on both sides and realize you're feeling your ribs for the first time in god knows how long.

5. Boxes of iced tea bags replace the diet coke 12 packs and two liters in your shopping cart.

6. You've actually grossed out an entire gate area at the airport with a PB because the nearest bathrooms were too far, and the nearest trash can was almost too far too.

Four months on and I'm five lbs away from my second mini goal. It was 1997 the last time I saw 225 on my scale!

When you realize it's been nearly 8 hours since you last ate and you're only just now feeling hungry.

The samples at the grocery store/costco/sam's club constitute a meal.

You walk into Godiva chocolate store and they hand you a small chocolate drizzled raspberry and it's enough to satisfy your sweet tooth for the next week.

You're out to eat with your mom and you have a coupon and need to spend $20 on food with it, and she goes, we could splurge on desert and you look at the deserts and absolutely NOTHING appeals to you.

When you're fighting with your mom over the croutons in the salad because they're about the only bread you both can eat and keep down.

You and your mom order ONE shotglass desert at Chili's or Applebees and split it and it's more than enough.

You know you are a bandster when . . . .

You drink a sip of water/ice tea just because its sitting there and think - damn, another 30 minutes before I can eat!

HAHA, I was just commenting on this the other day. I'll add to it a little this is what I told Zach:

You know youre a bandster when you dont look for the closest parking spot anymore and you make fun of those who do.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?
