so its about time. Ok,, Im 2 months out,, and down 38lbs. And they said this band doesnt work. Here are some observations that I have found in case there's anyone out there on the fence about the band. 1. Eat slow,, or your ass will PAY! I have had SEVERAL band whoopings, and its due to my mind not catching up(in time enough) to my band rules. 2. THANK GOD I didnt tell anyone about my surgery!!! That was huge. Now these compliments I get make my day, and I dont have to listen to peoples ignorant comments about wls. 3. Burping is a life saver. LOL,,,,, sometimes, I move in the silliest of ways, trying to get a burp up. 4. You CAN literally FEEL food going down. Boy does it feel good when it finally goes thru. 5. Protein isnt bad. In fact I look forward to my Isopure. 6. Working out is almost a necessity during my day now. I am now addicted to the feeling I have AFTER(notice I didnt say DURING) my workout. 7. Nothing fits, and I LOVE it. 8. Actually looking forward to seeing my PCP in March. Even if he does have the personality of a wet dish rag. Im going to finally get a decent reading on my blood labs. 9. This board can be wonderful. It can also be a place for opinionated, uninformed, people. 10. Where are the wls men? Not many on here to consult with. I love women to death, but topics tend to be of the feminine persuasion a lot. 11. Fighting for this band was definitely one of the best decisions I have ever made. I love my band. Steve Que

Hello, I like your top 11 countdown, very motivating!! You have done a great job. Have you posted on the Mens board? Thats where the men are (I guess). I agree with everything you said, I have some friends who have bands and they love them. I had RNY but we do have very similar experiences. Good luck to you and keep on keepin on' Angela

So what unfeminine things did you want to talk about that you can't talk about with us women? Sports? Do you follow hockey? lol Can't find women to talk about that with! Great job so far.. I was banded on the 15th of December and am at 40lbs gone. Keep up the great work! Amanda
