GAY Bandsters



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd start a thread for any gay people who've been bandeds or are about to get it done. I go in on Monday March 5th for mine. I live in Hollywood (land of the anorexic) & have found this site very helpful.

Hey there,

I was just cruising threads and came across this one and noticed your banding is coming up. I typed up DETAILS of my procedure and after (was banded on Tuesday (27). I post on my on journal for Synicalchick, feb bansters, march bandsters, bmi over 50 bansters and I started my own thread for non-christian bansters.

Good luck!

Tracy

Awww shucks,

Thanks for the support. I've been doing liquids now and am so over it. Can't wait to NOT be hungry. A little nervous about the actual surgery but excited as well.

BandSTAR is doing awesome. I am now 12 days post op. I have lost a total of about 33 lbs since this whole thing started. I had NO problems with the surgery. I decided to stay the night in the hospital (for the painkillers mainly). Came home to no pain and just a little gas. I went for my follow=up and all is well. The only complaints I would say would be I couldn't take a shower for all this time. My DOC said no way. Finally got to do that yesterday. Now I have some itching because they had to shave my belly (I is a little hairy down there) I am thrilled I did this, so far. I eat a little bit, like a normal person and am satisfied. I hope it keeps up. Thanks Chris for asking. Love ya.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
