Just banded on Tuesday



Recommended Posts

Wow! I made it. I was banded on Tuesday. I came home from the hospital yesterday. I am looking forward to a long life of happiness and healthyness. This is my new hope and I am so PROUD of it. I want to say thank you to everyone here who has offered help and comfort and support to me. I could have never made it as far as I have without you all being behind me.

Its an odd feeling being on THE OTHER side. Knowing that inside me lies the tool that I have been hoping and dreaming of for so long. I pray that I can be here and help others who are struggling with the same options that I had.

Hi,

I was banded on Tuesday too! Morristown Memorial in New Jersey. I feel pretty good except for esophagus spasms, are you having them too? It hurts everytime I swallow - I hope it goes away soon.

I hope you don't have them. Good Luck to you!

      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! 😞
