Wheres My June Bandsters??



Recommended Posts

Off Topic - I keep trying to change my weight ticker and will not update? Anyone else have that problem? I even deleted and rekeyed it and it still is the same as it was before.

Also - does anyone know how to change the surgery information? I can't figure it out.

Thanks' date='[/quote']

Yes I have the same issue

Well this is it. Surgery day tomorrow. I have so many feelings swirling around. Scared. Excited. Nervous. Anxious. Optomistic. Can't wait for this journey to begin:)

Me and you both 16th is our day

I'm being banded tomorrow! I can't believe I've made it this far. I'm excited' date=' nervous about the surgery, but totally ready for some time off work. ;P

I'm just glad I have the opportunity to make such an important change in my life. I wish nothing but the best for the other bandsters who are going through the surgery tomorrow, and all the others who are having their surgery soon as well! :D[/quote']

Thanks for the thanks, everybody! It was driving me nuts NOT having an organized list. I hate searching through threads and posts for one thing. So, page 16 for reference. I updated the list and the numbers. It was late at night when I made it so I must have counted wrong. We are at 86 people banded and scheduled for June. WOW!

Lots of peeps being banded today. BEST of LUCK! Let us know how you're feeling.

I'm scheduled for the 18th and am freaking out that surgery day is almost here. But, I know that it's time to get healthier and enjoy life more It's been a really hard couple of weeks on the liquid diet, but the end is in sight. Best wishes to all of you having surgery in June. It's great that we have this forum to meet others who are going through this change. It makes me feel less alone in the process. ðŠ

I'm the 18th as well. Just the weekend left and I've got lots of plans to keep me busy so Monday will get here really quick. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Good luck to all of the rest of the June bandsters being banded in the upcoming weeks!

Oh man! It's currently 5:50pm here in Texas, and I've been home since around 3:00. My surgery went A-ok! I'm going to post more about my experience on my blog later tonight.

Right now, I'm feeling super exhausted. I haven't been awake much since I came out of OR. For this being my first surgery ever, it went really well. I have a TON of gas pain, though, and more pain around my port than anywhere else. I have meds for the pain, but they don't work too much on the gas. I just have to walk that off!

I'm not really nauseous, just really sleepy. I can SIP Water relatively well. I feel like I should be sipping more than I am, though. The only major discomfort is this gas pain. The nurse at the hospital told me GasX won't help. Has anyone else had any luck with it?

Congrats to all the ladies and/or gentlemen who were banded today! Yay, we did it!!!!

Glad you're doing well. See, I had the same thought about the Gas X. It's not THAT kind of gas. Let us know how your days progress.

Has anyone else been hungry on day 1? My tummy is grumbling, and I think I'm gonna try and sip some chicken broth.

And boy, this gas pain is killing me. I've been walking every few hours, so I hope I can relieve some.

      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?

      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
