I am getting very nervous and excited. The time is finally here! I kinda have cold feet though. Is that normal? Hoe many cuts do you guys have? Are they about a inch long? I just have so many thoughts and feelings and questions. Lol

Hi there!

I am getting banded, TODAY!!! :D My family is having lunch and then we are off to the hospital. Not really nervous, but just ready to get it done. I could kill for a drink (of water) right now and unfortunately for me, I am getting hungry...ugh!

Wish me luck!

I can't seem to get rid of all the gas. That's the only thing that's driving me crazy. I did really good most of the day' date=' but whenever I drink something it seems to get worse. Ugh....ready for it to be gone. I am getting hungry! My hubby cooked a really good meal tonight and I soooo wanted some, but I wasn't about to risk it. I think I'm getting hungry because I'm not drinking enough Protein. I just haven't been able to stomach them like I could. It seems to leave a yucky taste in my mouth all the time. Trying to keep hydrated, but it's hard.[/quote']

I haven't been banded yet, but I understand the gas .. The shakes are killing me!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
