I was banded on October 15 and as of last week (at my last dr's appointment) I was down 35.4 pounds! I'm thrilled with the results. I keep telling everyone I should've done this years ago.

I lost 22 pounds on my two week "very low carb" pre-surgical diet.

I was banded on 11/1/2010, and I've lost another 25 pounds since then.

Total 47 pounds down---already just over one third of what I need to lose for my goal! :D

Thank you for that! I needed that I'm sitting here going through the threads and your right, all the weights are SO different. Its amazing. I'm doing better now, I realize its not a race but a battle we all are dealing with our weight. I see all the weight you have lost so Congratulations to you and Your recent surgery. I'm not trying to give you a hard time you just got in my feelings. I'm gonna learn to acknowledge all my acheivements even if I have no weight loss or vice versa. Everything I do with trying to get my life back I will be happy.thank you for letting me see that.This site has been an extreme help in my journey and I listen to ALL of you that have been banded for a while. So with that thank you! Everyone is such an inspiritation, especially to me, to let me know I'm not alone. Dee

Congrats on your 15 lbs.. To reiterate what others have said. Look for the positive..15 lbs,WOW!!!! that is great..

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Please dont judge your weight loss by what others post or dont post. We all come in at different starting weights and metabolisms.. so any loss is GREAT, whether large or small.

Everyone is thier own worse critic and in many ways I think it causes us to not forgive ourselves when we make a mistake. Hence probably why we got where we are.

The goal is, get past the mistake and do better the next week. I am sure you will continue to lose the weight as you go thru the journey.

      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. 🤞
