Who's getting banded in June



Recommended Posts

Apple! Today is your day! What are you doing on here???

You have a better way to pass the time, Kathy?????? I leave in an hour for the hospital. Surgery at 1:30pm. I am actually feeling very calm and was yesterday also. Slept pretty good. Only thing left to do is jump in the shower, shave my pits, grab my comfy capris and I'm on to a new life!!! Oh yeah, better find my cute sandals and then I'm ready to get into band life.

I am so psyched for this. I have vowed to follow every band rule, take this day by day and have a positive attitude.

Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes. Again, to all you having the procedure today and tomorrow...Blessings and a speedy recovery. Please....everyone keep us informed on how you are doing. It helps so much to know how each and everyone of you are doing. I know that there are going to be some great friendships that come together with our June Jazzies. I soooooooooo look forward to taking this journey with all of you. Karen:eek:

I am going to be banded tomorrow. I am so excited to get on with my life and move forward with it all. I have felt like I have been in a holding pattern for the last couple weeks! But I did loose almost 20 lbs on the liquid diet my surgeon requires so that is a great motivator!

I am not sure about my surgery time, the office will call me today with the time! I am keeping busy here at work today to make the time pass quicker. I even dusted all the file cabinets! LOL The girls here are laughing at me!

I will let you all know my surgery time when I know!:tongue::thumbup::lol:

Ha Ronda!. I am trying to keep busy too!.. am doing all my awful paperwork .. just to stay busy. My surgery isn't until 4pm (spain time) tomorrow. I leave the house at 1.30pm. I am even contemplating teaching in the morning just so it flies by a bit quicker!!.. not sure I can hang around my room and repack my bags half a dozen times!.. taking the kids to school is probably my best bet! ..

GOOD LUCK!!. and happy dusting!! lol (just off to re-organise and alphabetise my library!! )

Ronda you are SO lucky with your time! Darn shame my surgery isn't until 4pm!!.. leave the house at 1.30am (Spanish time)...it is 7.30am here now so going to try to sleep a bit more!.. that will help!

wishing all my 18th bandsters a truly WONDERFUL DAY!!.. only a few more hours to go!!!..

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!.. see you on the OTHER SIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S Thank the lord my NERVOUS day was yesterday!> I am soo excited today. I spoke with my two sisters and both of my parents last night so am feeling confident and reassured!. All of them (none with a weight problem) were VERY excited for me and all said " you are doing the right thing".. so they are here with me in spirit!!..

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
