I was banded in SA at the Nix on March 9th but live in Killeen. No one here knows that I had the surgery. Where did you get banded?

I live in San Antonio and am getting bannded a the end of the month! At the nix also! People can be mean, and there are people in my family that dont agree with what I'm doing, they think it's the "easy" way out. You can email me if you want, I can't really help you with the band part yet, but I can be an understanding person that know what you are going through (or will soon). My email is laceyismynameo@gmail.com

I'm in Hutto (NE of Austin). I work in Austin and travel to other locations as well. I'm getting banded on 7/10 at south Austin medical center. St David's. I could totally use a mentor/buddies. At least to chat. I'm starting to get nervous! Really nervous! Wondering if I'm doing the right thing!!! I've wanted this for 4 years but never wanted to finance....now I have awesome insurance that covers it %100. I've been jumping all the hoops my insurance required of me since 12/11. Now it's only a few days away and I'm excited but totally freaking out! For so many reasons. I'm saying goodbye to all my guilty pleasures......donuts, Pasta, breadsticks, etc etc etc all the stuff that got me fat!!!

Anyway, would love to chat it up with some of y'all! I can be emailed at

amyjbchampoux@gmail.com

      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? 🤷‍♀️
