Mine is on the 14th. I am getting nervous...mostly for the loss of my old life though. I could go and eat anything I wanted anywhere I want. 8 days of liquid diet has taken care of that though. And I'm not pleased with how I look when I do that so this is the best way for me. Good luck...in no time surgery will be over and your new life will start.

Yay for us!!

I had surgery today. Wasn't nervous at all but when the wheeled me in the OR it hit me, "wow this is really about to happen". But, somehow I remained calm, my wife was another story she was nervous enough for both of us! Lol good luck!!

Mourning food. Oh, yeah I went through that too. I thought about all of my favorite foods in the beginning thinking ill never eat them again. Then I joined my fitness pal and I see banded people eating those foods, in MUCH smaller quantities. Good luck! You will do great!!!

I did it and I am home and back to work. Surgery was Friday the 10th. I am very sore, bruised and swollen. My stomach looks like it was hit by a truck. Cant wait for this swelling to go down because Ive gained like 8lbs since Friday. I was down a couple of those today, but I am ready to start losing this weight! Yes, I am also mourning food and already sick of broth and Jello. I am so anxious for real food.

Hows everyone doing?

      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.
