hi rand

i was banded on the 6th and am recovering well. i am sure you are also.

what part are you tired of? trust me, we all have been there.

just stay on the liquids and do what the dr says. remember you are so still just outta surgery that you are healing now. do not worry about (losing/gaining). once you are off the liquids, the mushies/real soft foods come along and you will feel more human again (i know i did and drove ms jean batty).

i can feel my plication only because at around 1/2 to 3/4 cup of what i am eating i am full ---which is what it is suppose to do. the band is not filled yet and i may get a smidge in august at my 2nd month follow up.

right now you just need to rest and finish up with the dr orders.

how much longer on the liquids?

raleigh nc at your service darling. make a list of questions you want to ask and cover any qualms you have or dont have. just relax and go at your pace. this is YOU. do not ponder about bobby joe curly joe moe's weight loss. this is your pace. sf pop sicles saved me as well as my Protein shakes. the worst is nearly over ............trust me.

      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. 🤞
