SD Bandsters?



Recommended Posts

Banded in Brookings, banded 8-5. Am an emotional train wreck and have lots of questions.

Do you know how this works? I am struggling with this as well. Do you get the "full feeling" after eating and did you stick to the diet sheets?

If you were just banded you may not get the full feeling yet. You will need to get a fill or two in before this happens. Keep your head up and things will get better. If you have any questions I have been banded for over a year now and will be glad to help.

      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.
