Any San Antonio Banders?



Recommended Posts

I was banded 11.2.13 and I'm realizing that I need a buddy that knows what I'm going through. About 40 lbs away from goal and its hard. Started at 267lbs down to 168lbs just need someone to relate to and get some new in site from. Found myself on a bit of a set back and I need to get refocused again

Not in San Antonio... close Austin. Would be happy to be a buddy for you. I have been at goal for over a year now. I still struggle with things, currently struggling with recovering from a TT.

What are you struggling with?

I'm in San Antonio!. I was banded 12-20-13. I have lost a total of 30 lbs so far without a fill. I definitely could use a banded buddy also to help me keep on track as well. :)

Sorry it took me so long to reply but I would love to have a banded buddy. I haven't had the chance to share this journey with anyone I think it would onky help to share best practices.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
