September 10Th



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled to have a lap band (over a previous gastric bypass 12 years ago) on Sept 10th in NY. Excited, optimistic and ready for the next steps. Have done all the tests and consultations and just waiting for clearance from my insurance.

Hi Shira,

congrats on your surgery date. I'm one day after you on the 11th. I hope your insurance approval comes quick for you. You should join the September bandsters group. If you go to groups at the top of the page and then new groups you will find us. All of our surgeries are close together!!! Keep us updated on your approval...

I'm using the app on an iPhone and it says I need a password to join the Sept 2012 group.

Really, don't know why that would happen. Slojo67 started the group, I will send her a message and ask if there is a password. If you can get on a computer you shouldn't have any trouble getting to the group. I will let you know when I hear back from her.

Good Luck with your surgery. I am also scheduled for Sept. 10, 2012. I've done all my pre-op stuff from psych eval, meeting with the nutritionist, blood work, insurance approved it, now just waiting for the date. I can't wait for Sept. 10th to get here.

      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. 🤞

      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.
