Getting banded on Tuesday



Recommended Posts

August 23rd is my big day and I am still unsure about my decision. I am nervous, scared and afraid of failure.

I have been on this site for a year and I have read my negative things then positive about the lap band. I need to lose weight because I have some medical problems. I don't want to get the lap band and develop more medical conditions.

I am taking all opinions and any advice... So please speak up one and all!!!

I had it done two years ago and have done well. I needed to lose weight to have a very large hernia repaired. It's on the horizon.

I will keep you in my prayers.

      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.
