My husband was banded on Feb 23. I will be banded on march 14th. I am a little nervous because of some of the issues that my husband has had with hunger that we are still working on but above all i am so excited to finally have this done.

I think it is cool too that you are both banded around the same time. I wish my hubby and I could do it at the same time but he is still in denial I think and needs time. I think once he sees success he will be more open to it. I too am getting VERY nervous about surgery coming (march 24) but I chatted last night with 2 people in the chat room that made me feel so much more at ease! Try hooking up with a bandster here too and chatting.

It definitely is great when a husband and wife get banded together. My husband and I were banded an hour apart from each other. So basically, we have been able to have a constant support team. He knows what it feels like to have something get stuck, and we both can share frustrations together. Even though you and your husband have the surgery, don't be suprised if you experience a total different experience. Especially with what will/won't go down. Also, try not to compare your weighloss totals. They could vary greatly. Good luck with your surgery in March!!

Wow. The only thing that I could have wished to improve my banding experience would have been to do it with someone I'm close to--someone I live with, even. You are so lucky!! Good luck to both of you and please come and let us know how you're doing.

      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! 😞
