I was banded on October 10th, 2011. I lost 46 pounds during the doctor supervised dieting and pre-op diet. Since surgery, I've only lost 7 pounds. I'm hoping my first fill in a couple weeks starts to help. I find myself making poor choices sometimes and starting to fall into bad habits. It's hard right now though because I have NO restriction. I find myself starving by the time a meal time rolls around and even after I eat what's on my plate, I could eat more. I don't do it, but I know I could. Then, when bedtime comes, my stomach is growling so bad, I can't sleep. I really hope this phase passes soon.

I was banded 11 months ago on 12/9/2010 and have lost 136 lbs. I have 81 lbs to go. I have had 4 fills and I am in the green zone.

The biggest challenge now is that the weight is coming off more slowly.... so I just need to find some patience and take it 10 lbs at a time. :)

I have a question Floridays. Why has your weight loss slowed if you are in the green zone? I have no fills yet, first one is the 11th. So I am just curious about the process. And congrats on your fabulous weight loss! I love this forum. It's so inspiring!

      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.
