Any Delaware Bandsters out there!!!



Recommended Posts

Was wondering if there were any Delaware bandsters out there... I live in the Bear area and was curious. How is everyone doing. When were you banded and have you been successful. I wanted to wish everyone:gluck: . Still trying to find my comfort zone with the fills, but have lost 43lbs since being banded on April 27th. I am at a stand still right now.. eating more than I should be.. still in for the good fight though!!:)

I have had one fill 5cc and still feel no restriction. I dont have another appt til the 24th. I am not pleased with the Drs office when it comes to appts for fills. I had the first one on the 12th of July and i have tried to call back to get a fill with no help.

How about you, how are you making out?

Where do go to the doctors at? WOW!! That was a big fill. My doctor will only give me 1cc at a time... I going to make them give me at least 2 or 2.5 for my next appointment... I go to the Chrias Center near Pike Creek. I had the same problem with getting appointments until I complained. Now they schedule me when I call.... Do you work out alot... I was a workout queen for like a month and a half, then I went back to work and lost my drive... I'm trying to get back into a routine, but exercising... UGGHH!!! I just can't get motivated.

Hey everyone. I too am from Delaware - born & raised in Dover, I currently live in Bear. I go Tuesday for my last pre-cert appt. Then hopefully all is a go. I'm excited but getting nervous. Wish me luck!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
