Video of me getting a fill

I could see the video for a couple of times. Now it doesn't work. Did you do something different in the last couple of days?:grouphug:

Try it now, my website provider has been making changes to the server and he did not grant access to flash files. It works now.

Thanks,

Thanks, Wade. I belong to another lapband group and they were very dissapointed that it didn't work. I think it was so kind of you to share your video. It answers a lot of questions to those of us that haven't had one yet.

Wade,

I keep trying to view your video & it keeps going to the screen asking me to download flash player which I did. It said successfully downloaded but then I still couldn't view? What do I do now?

I have just put a free video on my website of the doctor filling my band from a several months ago. The link is on my web page:

The link is on the page.

Let me know what you think :)

Thanks,

Wade

I can not see this - I have loaded the flash player manually as well as letting it load it's self.

Any ideas? :help:

Do you have dial up access or broadband. The file is about 8 MB in size. Also, do you have a pop up blocker? These are just guesses. As far as I know most are able to see the video.

I work in IT, and have tried from home (Roadrunner cable connection) and from work with a T1 line - both without a pop-up blocker on.

It seemed to have let me download something when I right clicked on it and chose save to, rather then attempting to click on the link and letting the flash player launch the clip.

Either way, don't worry about me, I am guessing this means I don't need to see it. It's a sign. LOL

I am already freaking about the food consumption. And have had to have the scales removed from my house today.

So, maybe I don't need to know whats going to happen to me May 18th, until I get there and hopefully passout, and then he can do it while I am out cold? LOL One can only hope!!!! LOL

The file is .FLV format and you might check to make sure you have the latest version of Flash Player. Just a thought.

It was a bit weird. When he first pulled Fluid out I though OK, so he's checking its all still there, makes sense. But why the in, out, in out, in, out? I would have slapped him.

But it's true - once the needle's in the port you dont feel all that in out stuff.

I think it was more of him making sure since I had the video camera on. We were talking and I probably messed with his mind.

      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.
