Oh, the twelve days of banding...



Recommended Posts

I'll be banded in 12 days--January 9. I'm new here; I'm hoping that reading these boards will help stop the weird dreams I've been having. I keep dreaming that I go to my surgeon's office and my nurse puts me in a small, gray, wood-paneled examining room. In my dream, she never returns. I'm left to look out the window at the cold, gray sky, pace the floor, and read dog-eared children's books.< /p>

Well, at least I'm not dreaming of chocolate!

So, I guess, to match the title of this thread...(**hums**) on the twelfth day before banding I enjoyed: a grapefruit and a left-over candy cane.

Tomorrow, on the eleventh day before banding, I will enjoy: a dinner out with family, a grapefruit and a left-over candy cane.

On New Year's eve, the tenth day before banding, I will enjoy: a fat-free yogurt, a delicious Protein Shake, and a broth-based, fat-free Soup (of my choice).

Sing along if you know the words!

      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.
