After you get your ticker how do you post it to your profile?

You need to go into your profile and change your signature. You will copy and paste the code from the ticker. Hope that helps.

I was just wanting to get my surgery over with so I could start the new part of my life. I have been banded for 7 months and have lost 95 pounds. I have 6 more pounds to lose to be at my goal weight.

Good luck on the 8th. I look forward to following your journey. Oh I use myfitnesspal.com. Feel free to add me. My user name us jurhee19.

I really liked Dr. Snow. I pray all the best for you and hope you can join the January 2012 Bandsters.... I am just about to start week 3 post-op. It is definitely an adjustment, but Dr. Snow's team is sooooooooo supportive and informative.....

Good luck!!!

      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.
