Getting Banded in 5 hours!!



Recommended Posts

What a day I had yesterday...

I did my pre-op stuff on Monday and got the "all clear". Got myself all psyched up for my banding which was going to be on Friday, Jan. 22nd, then I get a call yesterday from the surgeons office saying the doctor cannot do it on Friday and is moving it to Thursday, the day before. Well, the problem is that my hubby took Friday off of work, not Thursday. I have all of my arrangements made for my children too. If I don't do it on Thursday, then I have to wait two weeks for the next available date. I am so sad!!! My hubby tells me just to wait for the next available date because he is pretty sure he can't get the day off with that short of notice. I let the surgeons office know that I will take the Feb. 5th date. Well, guess what? My hubby must have heard in my voice, how sad I was and he called me back at work to tell me that I was having it done on Thursday!! My hubby called his boss, explained everything to him and they just switched out his days, so he off on Thursday. Then he took care of the arrangements with our children. He then called the surgeons office and made sure that the Thursday slot was still open and yes it was... so here I am!!

I have the best husband in the world... he took care of everything and made it happen!! I am truly blessed!!

Talk to you all later tonight... wish me luck!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
