Good Luck Letty. I have my pre-admissions physical tommorow, meeting with surgeon & they give me cleanser to scrub up for 3 days prior to surgery. It's getting closer and I'm definitely more nervous! I'm excited but can feel the anxious feeling - almost like one gets if you have to talk in front of a whole group of people...anticipating the unkown.

Hi, I know your nervous but you're going to be fine. I was banded last Tuesday 6/19. I was sore for the 1st couple of days and each day I felt better. The key is to keep moving, walk and move your body. Drink little sip of fluids but frequently and you will be fine in no time. I have no pain and am able to drink easily and have Jello and popsicles and a Protein Drink and I feel fine. I went shopping at Walmart yesterday, went out over the weekend and thus far I have lost since surgery 6/19 12lbs. All together with the 12 lbs I lost during the 2 weeks of Optifast and liquid diet before surgery I have lost 24 lbs. I am anxious to hear how you do after surgery. Be brave and strong this is the best thing you can do for yourself in your lifetime to keep healthy. You're in my prayers!! Good Luck! :P

Hi Letty,

I'm getting banded tomorrow too! I'm not worried about the surgery or the pain. I am worried about the hunger I will experience until I'm in the green zone tho. Maybe we can cheer each other on?

      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.
