Tomorrow is my day (take 2)!



Recommended Posts

The last few weeks I've been completely preoccupied with a work issue, but suddenly TOMORROW is my rebanding! I'm sooooooo ready to get cinched again, sooooo ready to stop closing in on an upward spiral. Holy hell, if this episode has proven anything to me it's the I NEED A BAND.

So this is it. See y'all on the flip side!! :whoo::whoo::whoo:

I'm back and BANDED!! Yaaahooooo!! The surgery went well and I'm "resting comfortably" as they say. I'm soooooo glad to be on this side of the banded divide once again.

Thanks so much everyone for your concern and well-wishes! Tonight I'm feeling lousy, of course, but if history is any guide I'll be feeling just fine by the end of the week. Looking forward to two days of vegging out!!

Hi Rain! I had Dr. Abkin again, though I know Dr. Bertha was there and they were both operating today. I hardly remember seeing the doctor, though; i'd already been given the first drug of the anaesthesia cocktail and was feeling a little loopy. And though I know I saw him afterwards, I don't remember that *at all.*

Thanks so much for checking in, and I really hope to meet you someday. Say hi to Pat for me!

YEA!!!!! You are no longer our "honorary banded person" of the forum! You are back to being ... One Of Us. (Insert theme song to Twilight Zone...)

Good to see you are doing well. Anything gained during the infamous unbanding can quickly be lost. You'll do GREAT!

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

      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! 😞
