Hello, This Is My 1St Time On Your Forum



Recommended Posts

Just today I scheduled an orientation with the surgeon and dietician for the Lap Band procedure. I'm trying to decide if this is something I want to pursue. I have a lot of question, concerns and fears. I'm really excited to have found your forum to hopefully help me through this journey I'm thinking of making. :-)

      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.
