Family, don't have to live with them, can't kill them! lol Yes, 4 more days, got my Ninja Blender at Target, they have the same one at Walmart, same price but for some reason the 1 at Target has 1 extra blender cup so I'm excited to use it!!

On sale for $79.99 and you get a $10. gift card, it's really good on ice turning it to snow & I want one that's really good for smoothies and it does a lot lot more so I figured, splurg and get a better one. I will be using it for a long, long time!

Good luck Momos. I was banded 7/10. I don't regret it yet! How are you doing with your pre-op diet?

That's great! How was your pain after? Well its hard and I'm hungry. Popsicles and Jello ain't cutting it lol.

Good luck! You will be surprised at how soon you are feeling better. Mine was a week ago (Realize band). I was flip-flopping between Lapband and Realize and didn't decide until an hour before my procedure! Just follow all your doctor's advice' date=' attend support meetings before and after and you will do very well![/quote']

Thank you! By the way I don't know the difference between the lap band and realize band, could you fill me in?

I'm on the 12th and for some strange reason it hasn't sunk in that I'm having lap band. I think it's because I'm afraid it won't work because I have failed so many times in the past. I have heard from people that it just didn't work for them and yes' date=' I know on this site there are hundreds of success stories. Why I feel like a failure beats the crap out of me. :([/quote']

How are you feeling now? I hope everything went smoothly for you. Thinking about ya.

      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! 😞
