Hey all,

This is my first post! (Yay!) My band date is Apr 21. I went from feeling frustrated that it was taking so long to get here, to now feeling anxious/nervous about it! (anyone else have that same feeling?) Id love to stay in touch with any of you April'ers that want to go through the journey together!

I just had my freak put on a leash yesterday! Surgery was very easy, pleasant. Having some discomfort but no trouble with the liquid intake. Never thought broth and Jello would EVER taste so amazing!!! Good luck and love to all my 4/11 bandster buds! Let's get our shrink on!

After being denied from my insurance and going through a long appeals process, I am SO HAPPY to say I was finally approved and my surgery is scheduled for 4/22/2011. Although I am extremely excited, I am nervous. But excited! Hooray!! Good luck to all of you that are getting your surgery soon!

Hi! I just posted for my first time tonight. I am feeling the same way, I am so excited but once I got the date (earlier today), I started to feel a little nervous! I hope everything goes really well for you, and let's keep in touch if you like, my date is 4/22/11. Good Luck!

Just found out today that my surgery date is April 21st. I am excited and sooo nervous. I would like to be friends with anyone here and give each other encouragement and support. Everyone on these boards seems so friendly and helpful. I have no extended family nearby and have decided not to tell the ones living far away. No one in my family has as big of a weight problem as me..and they probably would say I can do it on my own. Also, my Mum would worry herself silly about it. I may tell them in a few months when I go home. I wish all of you who have had or are having surgery in April all the best .

How are all my fellow April bandsters doing? My surgery date was April 6th, I weighed 250 lbs. the day of surgery and as of today, April 25th, I'm down to 231 lbs.! How's everyones's meal plan going? I just started softs this week as per my surgeon and am returning to work tomorrow. Anyone else still have soreness at their port sight when bending and reaching??

      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.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
