6 days post-op and back at work. Down 20 lbs since Pre-op diet and feeling pretty good. Still having issues with some gas pains but am moving around and taking Gas-X. Hard to believe that a yogurt and applesauce cup were the only two things I've had today and I am FULL. This band is going to end up being my life saver!!

Good luck and Best Wishes to all Banders coming up. It's been since Aug 6 I got banded. No issues, No problems with surgery and a mild post-op, and I still love the costco Premier Protein chocolate shakes, especially if you freeze them for 40-50 minutes prior to drinking. Its make a great smoothie and the texture changes to an ice cream condition.

Be Positive and May the good Lord Bless all of YOU!

      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.
