Your hilarious Jenni, and Yes I can tell you are bored today!! lol

sounds like your bands likes stuff that the bandy shouldnt be

eating!!! lol and OMG my band hates eggs too!!!! I had a egg

episode this last week. I made them for breakfast one morning and I

was all excited to eat them, and then a few bites and uhhh here came

the slime and the pb. and then hating to waste food I thought to

myself " well maybe it is because it was in the morning " , so I took

the left over eggs and took them for lunch, and it did the same

thing. yuck! I am staying away from eggs right now! there are

plenty of other things my band will eat so I wont put myself throught

that misery again.

well have fun being bored. lol I am off to do some stuff around the

house.

hugs,

Jenni,

But have you tried eggs? LOL Sorry ... had to ask. Seriously ... what is it about eggs that the band doesn't tolerate? Anyone know why this is? You are not the first person I've noticed has had a problem with eggs, so I wonder what it is about them that the band doesn't tolerate? Seems like they'd go down easy since they're soft just about any way you prepare them. I'm perplexed! Any ideas, anyone?

I have tried eggs in every single shape and form. I have tried to hide them in casseroles. I have tried to sneak them in, closing my eyes as I ate them. NOTHING works. You hear me???? NOTHING!!! I don't care if I EVER see another egg again for the rest of my life. They are painful, you hear? PAINFUL! We were going camping/canoeing one weekend. I thought, "Hey, boiled eggs would be a great source of protein for me!" So, I boiled a dozen. (Trip was going to be several days.) I peeled one and took a tiny bite. Ok...ok....so far so good. Then, I took another bite, this time enveloping some of that delicious yoke as well. I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE! I stood up in the canoe, my husband yelled at me to sit down. I sat down. I stood up again! I stepped right out, over the side, into the knee deep water, and got to the bank as

quickly as I could, bending over my knees, PBing on eggs for what seemed like an eternity! My husband and my sons just kept looking at me like I had lost my mind. This was a first "BANDED" experience I was having with food. After hurling for about an hour, we moved on. I was an exhausted mess. I handed the eggs over to my sons in their canoe and there were many, many fish who were tickled pink to have eggs to eat that day....all the way down the river. I made a vow that day. I made a vow that I would NEVER mistreat my band again as long as I lived. (Or at least until I tried scrambled eggs a few weeks later). Everytime I eat eggs I have the same reaction. Go figure. Hell, I can eat honey roasted peanuts, popcorn, and numerous other things that don't seem possible but eggs kill me every single time. I think I will sit on my front stoop with a shotgun just in case that bunny

gets any ideas this next Easter! One foot in my yard and he is history, I tell ya, HISTORY!

Jenni,

As humorous as this story is I feel your pain. I still have trouble with

eggs and many other protein rich things. I did however find a wonderful

protein drink that is not chalky or nasty and comes in many tasty flavors.

They have two kinds-one is just Spirutein & one is KetoSlim.KetoSlim has

about 28 grams of protein & only two carbs. This is what I drink every

morning as I am too restricted to do any food. It is in powdered form

and I put in 2% milk as whole is too heavy for me. I am a year out from

my band DOB & I still have problems with all kinds of food but would

not trade this for the world as IT IS the only way I could have lost any

weight- I am down 75 lbs. Gotta love the Great Dr A & wonderful staff-

they at the BEST!

Feel better

You guys are cracking me up. I love that Jenni's list mentions ice

cream several times. My band would agree with yours! I have a

question for you though. I had my surgery 9/25/06 and am fully

recovered. I have not had a fill yet. I find myself able to eat

everything I have tried so far with no trouble. Including eggs. No

problem. Well, there was a small taquito incident, but that was my

fault. Piggy girl that I am. Will this come to a screetching halt

once I've had my first fill? If I have no trouble with eggs now,

will I after my first fill? Is my tolerance before my first fill an

indication of how it will be after or does the fill change

everything? Everybody please chime in. My first fill is this

Saturday. Thanks, .

PS by the way to all you newbies who stopped loosing, me too. In

fact I gained 2 lbs. I haven't lost anything in a week or two now.

I'm not even sure how long cuz I just don't care. My clothes are

getting bigger by the day and I will get my first fill and then

start loosing weight. told me my first week to " STEP AWAY

FROM THE SCALE " . The best advise I ever received.

, You cannot judge how your band will behave after your first fill. The egg incident was before my first fill. Before my first fill I was able to eat chicken. Now I cannot. (Maybe it is because my band has figured out that chickens are the ones who are actually responsible for the eggs in the first place!) Your band without a fill is kind of like a tire without air. For your tires to work properly, they need air. For your band to work properly, it needs a fill. My strong suggestion is that you take it really easy on your band after your fill. Start with baby steps again and even when you move onto solid foods, take teeny tiny bites until you are sure your band is agreeable with what you are asking it to eat. This will be the time that you and your band will start bonding!! lol Friend or foe....what will it be!!! That screeching halt you mentioned may

not happen until several days after your fill. You know, right after you hit send on that email that you write to Nina complaining that you don't feel any restriction whatsoever? That is when it will hit you, I guarantee it! Everything will be smooth sailing (or swallowing) until that moment. You may be eating something as simple as chocolate pudding (sugar free, of course) and all of a sudden your band says STOP! And you find out that you can make it to the bathroom in one quick leap over the back of the sofa, legs in the perfect formation of an Olympic hurdler over the coffee table, quickly bowing down to the porcelin goddess, hurling what looks like brown jellyfish for what feels like an eternity! I know, I know! It's disgusting but it is SO TRUE!!! If you THINK you have PB'd before, just you wait until after your fill! Oh, the joys of the banded life! Basically, , you haven't lived a

banded life until you have experienced a fill! Just keep reminding yourself that YOUR BAND IS YOUR FRIEND!!! :) Life is getting a little better, Jenni Curriewendyelam81 <welam@...> wrote: You guys are cracking me up.

You are killing me. You are so hilarious. I like the part where

your band figured out it was the chicken that laid the egg. Jenni,

thanks for this info. I've been wondering and trying to prepare for

my fill on Saturday. Things have gone so smoothly for me so far.

So basically be prepared to start from scratch and get to know my

band. Sounds good. I'm ready to get this bad boy up and running.

I can't wait to meet my band and bond. Oh, and next time you pull

the olympic couch jumping event, please get pictures! Thanks Jenni,

you've given me a very good idea of what to expect. .

Bandsters, I love eggs and I can't have eggs either, but I sure can egg flower soup from the Chinese Restaurant here in town and it is so good, so if you like eggs and want eggs that is an option.Cher <keno777@...> wrote: Jenni, As humorous as this story is I feel your pain. I still have trouble with eggs and many other protein rich things. I did however find a

wonderful protein drink that is not chalky or nasty and comes in many tasty flavors. They have two kinds-one is just Spirutein & one is KetoSlim.KetoSlim has about 28 grams of protein & only two carbs. This is what I drink every morning as I am too restricted to do any food. It is in powdered form and I put in 2% milk as whole is too heavy for me. I am a year out from my band DOB & I still have problems with all kinds of food but would not trade this for the world as IT IS the only way I could have lost any weight- I am down 75 lbs.

lived. (Or at least until I tried scrambled eggs a few weeks later). Everytime I eat eggs I have the same reaction. Go figure.

Hi, . I also can eat anything I want. I had one little slime episode

on day 4 on jello and no others. No pb episodes, thank goodnes. I was down

20 and haven't lost in about five weeks. My first fill is 11/11 (I think

you will be there, too)! I can't wait. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

My surgery was 9/7 and my experiences have been swell. I have gained

aboaut 5 pounds back but I have to be honest, I was travelling for three

weeks, had company for one week--eating out, etc., back with a heavy

workload at my company with long hours and no exercise. I am longing for my

routine back!

I wonder if I

am the only one on the list that can still eat anything? I can eat bread,

pasta, eggs, potato……..anything. There is not one food in

particular I have PB-ed on and I still have not PB-ed more than 5 times. (usually

from not chewing or eating too fast) I guess I am lucky!

OOOOOH Jenni!

I am with you all the way with the eggs! I thought it was an

allergy for awhile but not really! I also thought about boiled eggs

and a nice egg salad or deviled eggs but no way! The funny thing is

that I can eat them in things like creme brulee, baked goods, and

custard based items like pumkin pie. But that is it. All nice high

calorie items you'll notice, too. Yes, the peanuts, popcorn and

lots of chocolate and ice cream work very well for me but alas, I

can forgo them for awhile until I reach my goal. Isn't that neat,

that we CAN forgo all those nice treats and really not miss them as

much as we would have without our bands!

Best wishes,

Penny

> Jenni,

> But have you tried eggs? LOL Sorry ... had to ask.

Seriously ... what is it about eggs that the band doesn't tolerate?

Anyone know why this is? You are not the first person I've noticed

has had a problem with eggs, so I wonder what it is about them that

the band doesn't tolerate? Seems like they'd go down easy since

they're soft just about any way you prepare them. I'm perplexed!

Any ideas, anyone?

I'm the same way. I have PB'd a little more than you but its do to eating a little to big of piece or not eating for an long time and eating to fast 'cuase I'm hungry. I have to use a little more self dicipline than I had hoped I would, but Its still working much better than before my band. I am very glad I did this for me.

There is not one food in particular I have PB-ed on and I still have not PB-ed more than 5 times. (usually from not chewing or eating too fast) I guess I am lucky!
