When you go out to eat with your 5 year old grandaughter and she cleans her kids plate and you have a large doggie bag going home from your kids plate.

when the slime you produce is "totally wicked gross" according to your 8 and 9 year old boys. (who also think we should try to sell it in those machines outside the grocery store. you know, the ones you put a quarter or two in).

boys, gotta love them!

Showing the boys your slime is just too funny! An 8 or 9 year old boy would love slime. If I showed my Daughter she'd probably move out, or send me to the nut house!

Great laughs on this thread.

You know that new Domino's pizza commercial? The one that has the "warning" to close your eyes and block your ears if you don't want to save money on "piping hot pizza, " well you really do close your eyes and block your ears!!!!!!

ROTFL, I saw that commercial last night and I closed my eyes too...I wish all of these food commercials gave the same warnings!...but with all the darn food commericals anymore, I guess we would be spending a lot of time in front of the TV with our eyes closed and our fingers in our ears.:thumbup:

OK, here's my take:

* When you're underware falls off...time to buy smaller ones

* When the watress thinks something is wrong with your food. I once had one tell me to come back when I was 'really' hungry.

* When one bite of something satisfies you just as long as you can eat it.

* When you look at a plate of food at your favorite restaurant and think, "Who do they think they're feeding, a giant?" and before the band you could finish it and more.

* When your hubby can eat forever off you're leftovers.

* When you shop for clothes in the same shops as your young daughters.

* When you actually look forward to events to show off your new look.

* When people who don't know about your band look at you and say "I like your new haircut."

* When you freak out at work because the boss is buying 'pizza' for everyone.

* When you start saving money for plastic surgery instead of vacation

when you take one of those 60 calorie choc pudding Snacks for a late night snack and in the morning realize it's on your night table still 1/2 full!

You can put on a pair of socks without sitting down and running out of air.

Standing up against a wall with your feet, butt and shoulders touching the wall and being afraid of falling on your face ;-)

You know your a bandster when...

Everytime you eat your DH reminds you to eat slow and take small bites.

OR

You tell your DH to slow down and take smaller bites.

OR

Your once highcut hipster undies look like ganny panties.

OR

Your boobs look like tubesocks with baseballs in them

OR

Before buying new cloths you look like a kid wearing your mom or dads outfits.

OR

You buy Childerns liquid Motrin or Bendryl and you don't have kids

OR

Your knees and back don't hurt as nearly as often as they used to

OR

You can take a flight of stairs without getting winded

OR

You actually look forward to shopping

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
