I used these forums to get through the approval process and everyone was so helpful. I was Banded on Oct 19th 2009. A month later we found out we were expecting. I guess I wasn't infertile after all!:P

My Dr. was quite disappointed that I became pregant so soon after surgery, but honestly I had been diagnosed as infertile and we were going to start fertilitly treatments in 6 months. To say we were overjoyed and felt blessed was an understatement! I never had my band filled during my pregnancy but tried to eat sensibly and I'm happy to report I'm still down 50lbs from my original starting weight before being banded. I had two fills this past year since delivering our little girl and I have 5cc in my band right now (it's holds up to 9cc). It's doing nothing. I get another fill in two days. I'm praying it helps. I tore a ligament in my foot and can't really excercise. I'm trying to keep up with a baby who is about to walk and I want nothing more than to lose weight and live a long and healthy life to watch my baby grow up. I feel like I need some help right now with staying on track. So here I am again. Hi everyone! I'm Denise and it's nice to meet you all again. :)

      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.
