Thank You DeLarla



Recommended Posts

I just wanted to say thank you for the support you have given us bandsters that have had and are having complications. Thank you also for the insight and truthfulness that you give this board. I don't care what anyone says I respect people who tell it like it is and are willing to share their personal feelings and experiences. Maybe you helped save someone who was too afraid to ask the ?'s that needed to be asked! So, You Rock!!!

Much love coming your way from TN!!!!

Ditto's !!!!

She welcomed me with open arms and we became cyber buddies before I knew it.

She's a sweatheart in the true sense of the word.

HUGS !!!!

Ditto here too!! DeLarla has welcomed and supported anybody who has had a problem. When I was new to the whole band thing, she gave me her number and we talked for a while. She gave me her insight and her knowledge on the band. She had a lot of experience and was more knowledgeable on how this thing should work than my own doctor. She's awesome!!! Good luck Lisa, we're all here to support you for all the help you've given us......

AWE, I'm crying at my desk again because I forgot to add "No crying at work" to my 2006 Resolutions!

I'm just giving back to LBT what LBT gave to me. I would never have made it without Donali, Penni, Alexandra.... geeze, there's no way to even begin to list the people that held me up when I couldn't make it through another day. I'm glad to be part of this whole LBT thingy, so thanks to Alex, Mr. Mystery, for starting this family :)

The boys around here love you, too girl!

I always find myself looking for a Delarla post because I know that the LBT goddess is going to having something to say that was worth reading. So keep it up and don't go anywhere.

Wow....5000 posts?!? I'm pretty small potatos around here. When do you find time to work?!?!

God bless you. And all the bandsters out there. Lift each other up daily!

Who said I work? Actually, my 2006 resolution is to actually work before they fire me for being at LBT so often. But I just love all the love, it's infectious! I'm too much of an LBT junkie to ever leave my family here ;)

Uh-huh! Everything they said. I always look for your posts and love your honesty and tell-it-like-it-is attitude. I admire you for having such a great attitude with everything you've had to endure. Please stick around, we've all learned a lot from you (and you're quite entertaining too)!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
