Really glad to see a mens forum. There are so many more women than men on these forums! Anyway,,I am considering getting banded. Two years ago I went through the insurance requirments and backed out in the last month. Lost 80lbs on my own then gained it all back.

The worst part for me is sweating! When I gain the weight back I sweat like crazy. Man its embarrassing as hell. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes. Me! Before my surgery I was hot and sweating all the time regardless of the temp. I was too hot at home. In my bed. At work outside. Name it. I was sweating there. I could not find a deidorant that worked. It was awful.

This last few weeks I have actually been cold!!

Thank you for addressing this issue. I'm laying on my Hammock in my backyard and appreciating the various posts here on LBT. However, this is the first post I've seen so far (been on here for a week) that is discussing profuse sweating. For years I've been drenched and it doesn't matter where or what I'm doing. It's beyond embarrassing to me especially when out in public and (thank goodness I'm not in food service:). Granted I have multiple health issues that could contribute to this symptom, but it's even baffled most of my dozens of physicians too. This past year we experimented changing meds and getting off a few has made a difference. However, i still experience it even while doing something as simple as the dishes :( I'm hoping that once I get banded and recovered that I'll be able to do more

Okay, so I wasn't finished "chicken-pecking"on my phone here and my dogs just came up and bumped the hammock and my message simply sent itself? :)

Anyway, I'm curious to see if this thread develops as others (Pre-Op + Post-Op) Bandsters input is also greatly appreciated. I'm very hopeful for a less drenched future! :)

I have always been the one at work who is always hot and sweaty. I never wear long sleeves or jackets, even in the winter. I am the first to put the air conditioner on at work and as soon as I do all of the "skinny b*****s"start complaining about it while they are there in there skimpy next to nothing outfits.

Well, I will say that I have lost nearly thirty pounds and am feeling the difference already. We have had some really hot days here in Jersey already and I must say that it was nice to not be as hot and as sweaty as I would have before. Hopefully it keeps getting better.

I have lost over 70 pounds and I do feel a little less "insulated" than I used to. The true test will be when July and August hit. But to be honest I have always been hot natured and sweated even when I weighed 175 pounds.

      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! 😞
