Already hit my MAIN goal after 4 months!



Recommended Posts

I was banded 10/15/10 so almost 5 months ago. Not only am I 65 lbs down but I am no longer insulin resistant and am off medication for it and high blood pressure!!! I have been insulin resistant for about 10 years and never thought it would just go away! My monthly cycle is normal now and I am completely healthy!!! This was my major goal getting banded. I didnt think it would happen so fast but Im so excited. I just had to share with my bandster family!!

You are awesome! Keep up the fantastic work! This gives me such hope to read things like this. I have such high hopes for this procedure and my first year goal isn't necessarily to lose all that I want, which is about another 80 pounds but if I could maintain losing an average of 1 pound a week and lose a little over 50 pounds in the first year...I would be elated. Thank you for posting this because it gives me so much more incentive....

      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.
