Banded 10/20 in Sacto CA



Recommended Posts

Hi - just thought I'd introduce myself!

I was banded on the 20th and am still in the liquid phase, I have a post-op appt tomorrow (wednesday) - I'm hopeful they getme on the puree so I can start feeling at least semi-full... I haven't weighed yet but will most likely tomorrow at the appointment.

Starting weight - 365

Current Weight - ?

Goal Weight - 250 or 225 (not sure how I'll feel when I hit 250, so I may just keep going down from there)

Glad to be here - hope to contribute

Hi there DCox! I live in CV, close to Merced/Turlock area. I am going to be banded in Jan. I'd like to keep in contact with you if you would like to. I'll be up in that area for Thanksgiving, my family lives in Rocklin/Lincoln area. Good Luck on your appt and wishing you all the best on a great losing streak (isn't it nice to finally be called a Loser but for a positive reason!)

Psichikel -

Love to get together! I've been doing pretty good, but I'm sure you have plenty of questions about it.

my scale at home says I'm now 325 but I go for my "official" weigh in at the doctor tomorrow (friday) afternoon. even un-officially that's 40lb in 3 weeks!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
