Hi! I'm trying to meet local people who have been banded or plan on being banded. I've finished all of my testing and now I'm waiting for insurance approval.:) I'm hoping to hear something within the next couple of weeks.

Hi!! I live in Statesville, not too far from you. I was banded on 3/27/08, by Dr. Bauman in Concord. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask... Good Luck on your WLS

Hey! I'm doing great. I haven't had any complications at all since the surgery. And my first fill went really well. He put in 4 cc's and I could tell a HUGE difference after that. I was scared at first that I was too tight, but I'm okay.

I didn't lose anything this week, but I think it's the bites and nibbles (Christmas snacks) that have caught up with me.

I feel great, though!

Thanks!:biggrin:

      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! 😞
