Hello all,

I was banded on Sept 22nd and have lost a total of 16lbs so far. Got approved for the soft foods high protien diet a week ago and enjoying being off the broth. Not losing quite a fast as before and I am definately having a hard time`sticking to the 1/4 cup portion size recommend by my doctor. Overall though, I am happy about the result and glad to be on this side of the surgery after my 6 month insurance-imposed wait!

      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.
