Hey Everyone,

It has been great reading everybodies emails.....I have really learnt alot.

I will be getting my band on March 4th with Dr. Ortiz. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I can't wait to start my new life.

I feel like these last three weeks have been a rollcoaster. At times I have been out of control eating and other times a wouldn't dare eat an extra ounce. After reading post after post I realize that this is probably normal.

Regular Size clothes I get gitty just thinking about the possibility!!

Hi Lacy,

just had my surgery on Wed Feb 16 2005 and feel so excited with my new life. Dr. Ortiz did the surgery and you can ask him or Dr. Martinez anything. They are wonderful. I told them exactly the objections that my primary doc told me. I felt so much better plus I made 2 new friends. You can contact me if you like...take care

Congratulations, you will soon be banded! They said not to, but I did a lot of out-of-control bingeing right before my surgery. It's normal. Good luck with everything!

I have also learned a ton from reading through all the threads here! I am trying to figure out how to post an introduction? Best of luck, I think I know exactly how you fell right now!!

      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.
