Hello!

I'm getting banded in 11 days and am nervous as hell. How did you do on the pre-op liquid diet. How was the procedure?

Just signed up for Lapband Talk and can't find the "ticker." Hard enough to find the profile stuff. Can anyone tell me where it is?

Ticker tutorial:

http://www.lapbandtalk.com/topic/40540-ticker-tutorial-with-pictures/

It is based on the old LBT. So now to get to your signature, go to "Signed in as" on the upper left corner, click "My Settings" then profile. Then you'll see a link to change signature. That is where you paste the code for the ticker.

Do NOT click on "My Profile" you need to click "My Settings" then profile or you cannot get to the signature page.

Hi, I'm new to this chat stuff. Older grandmother in a small towm. I plan to be banded in February. I've statred a high Protein low carb diet in preparation. How do you feel after the surgery. Do you have a lot of pain. How so do you plan on returning to work. I'm a little nervous, but I thnk I'm making the right decision for my health. I have 130lbs to lose. Happy for you and I will keep in touch.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
