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.

      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.

      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!!
