Yeah for you! See i told you you'd be fine regardless of the smoking thing. And you probably won't want to smoke now that you're banded! Sorry about having to deal with the guy next to you dying - that is very sad and would have really freaked me out. We will all pray for his family. Welcome to bandland!

Hey Linda!!!!

So glad everything went well for you, with the exception of you roommate, he and his family will be in my prayers.

So, you did it, it finally happened for you, I am so glad and proud of you for being able to go through with this. I know there were some scary moments for you in the beginning, but that's all behind you now and I will be looking for new pics on your webpage.

WTG, I am so happy for you, welcome to bandland, now you'll really know what it's like and not have to take someone elses word for it. Take it easy, remember, don't overdo, you still have anesthesia in your system and be careful about sipping, don't over do that or you will come to know the dreaded PB way too early in the game.

Thanks for letting us all know, I have been thinking of you.

Cindy

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
