HI Everyone :P I'm Mia... 25... and I'm hopefully going to be banded soon. I've already had my inital consultation with the surgeon, had my psych eval... I go for my surgical clearance appointment next week and hopefully I'll be getting into Rotation soon! As long as my insurance company doesn't throw any curveballs, I should hopefully be on the losers bench very shortly.

I look forward to chatting with you all :D

Hi Mia and welcome to LBT!

Whereabouts in Michigan, if you don't mind my asking? I have lived in Florida since I was 15, but grew up in Sparta and still have a lot of relatives in Grand Rapids area.

Wow, I am very familiar with Flint. My parents have friends that have lived there forever.

Been to Rockford many a time. Used to go the Rockford bar to eat hotdogs. I never got my name on the wall, but my brothers did, lol. We used to have a cabin on Lake Mitchell up at Pontiac.

I actually live in Holly... home of the Michigan Renissance (sp?) Festival... I'm actually looking forward to going this year. I want to get dressed up, but I definitely want to wait before I spend all of that money on something that won't fit next year :)

Nice to "meet" you both :confused:

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
