Hello everyone :) I'm soooo excited about getting the lapband (scheduled for 3/1/12). At first I was a little nervous, but after reading so many of your stories about the amount of weight you guys are losing has me feeling like I made the right decision. Thanks for your posting, it really helps the beginners

Yay! We're bandster buddies! I'm scheduled for March 1st also. I started my pre-op diet today and attempted to drink a Protein Shake. DISGUSTING! My nutritionist says there's an unflavored powder that u can mix with applesauce or abt anything. I GOTTA find that! I'll keep in touch, so we can track each other's progress, and lend support. Congrats!

Unflavored Protein Powder may be in the grocery store but will definitely be at GNC or similar store...you can even put it in Soup. This is the best thing I ever did and I am excited for you guys! I had a big struggle to adjust to it at first (its a whole new life) but now it is super easy and I hardly think about it! I would do it over again in an instant!

      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.
