Congratulations! At least this way you won't be over eating on the wrong foods on Valentine's Day.

Best wishes

Wow...no turning back now! I just checked into the hospital. I live in Europe, so they keep you in the hospital longer than the US.

It's funny because I have to ask everyone "speak English?" but most people are pretty nice. This is my first time in a hospital here, so that's the only reason I'm a little nervous. But I know that God is with me.

My girlfriend just left so I thought I'd read a few posts. She had her band done here over a year ago, so it's good to have someone in your corner who has walked the road before you.

I downloaded new books on my kindle...so I guess I'll get to reading.

IF I don't get back on here--Happy Valentine's Day to my fellow bandsters! What a wonderful gift to our lives!

Please join the "February 2013 Bandsters" group forum. (on the main forum page--go down to LBT Social forums, then look for the name--towards the bottom) We've become a great family there!

Praying for everyone on our new journey! :wub:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
