I am scheduled to be banded on April 3rd, I am excited and nervous at the same time. Scared because I seen the pain in my coworker after her surgery. I am taking 9 days off from work to be comfortable in my home.

Praying you do great. I'm set for 1 week from today. I'm nervous, but determined. I've heard that if you get up and walking as soon as possible, the pain is not as bad.

Thank you! I am counting down the days. And getting excited about being active in the summer. Especially since moving to Texas, I am so ready to take advantage of the activities around here.

I live in Texas to and the heat is something else. I was banded 03/10/14 and I'm looking forward to not having to spend my summer covered up in stifling hot cloths. Good luck.

That's my biggest reward. I cannot wait to be comfy in shorts. I actually wore shorts for the first time since I was 13 this past summer because it was so darn hot here.

      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.
