Hi my name is Nic (Nicole) and I am from NY. When I had my daughter 10 years ago I gained over 100 lbs. I have been fighting to lost it for the last 10 years. I tried EVERYTHING. Last year I found myself very fatigued all o the time. My pcp did a sleep study and found that I had sever sleep apnea. I DO NOT like using a cpap. the pulmonary and pcp suggested that i see a surgeon about lap band. well that was last october. I went for my consult in november and i was banded on monday the 13th. Its my 6th day i feel excited, afraid, renewed, lost so many different emotions lol. I also (today) feel hungry ! any suggestions advice is welcomed. i have started on "mushies" already most just pureeing Soups i am nervous because i see so many others on liquids (clear) for longer than i was told was neccessary.

I am new to the site and I have not had the lapband done yet. I have my first consultation on July 13th. My hubby does not want me to do it, but I feel it is necessary for me. Not sure how all this is going to go. I wish you good luck!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
