Support Group For Dfw Banders!!



Recommended Posts

ready to do this? I am. So darned ready.

YES! Had my pre-op appt this afternoon and I am first on the list in the morning!! I have to be there by 6am! I am hoping I can trust my 3 boys to get ready and off to school on time. I think I am more nervous about that than I am about the surgery itself. :)

Hey y'all! I'm in Fort Worth. I'm on "old" bandster. I was banded in April 2008. I've done extremely well until about 6 months ago. I started a new job, stopped running and have managed to gain 20 pounds. Basically I got compliant and fell off the wagon. So I've come back to this site to remember what it is I'm supposed to be doing and get back on track. Congrats to all of you newly banded. I still consider the band the best thing I've ever done for myself and would do it again in a heartbeat!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
