Hi there ... I was banded in 2008 and had my band removed on 18th April. I went from 242 down to 149 (5'9) and maintained with the band but it went crazy on me last December and it turns out it was adhered to my liver!! I am booked for 9th July as earlier in July is our school holiday period (Australia) and the surgeon doesn't operate :-( I had to gain to get my surgery due to my great bmi of 23 when the problems started which is frustrating and now my bmi is back to 28 and I feel yuck so bring on my surgery date!! Good luck with your surgery and I cant wait to hear how you are traveling ...............

Hi there I am really excited as I asked for my surgery to be carried out earlier and my Dr agreed to do it at 9 weeks post removal which is 18th June. So after tomorrow I am on pre-op diet and will be sleeved before I know it, I am so happy as that is 3 weeks I don't have to put on more weight that I will have to lose again. I am dying to get back into my clothes as I am living in a couple of outfits because I didn't want to spend money on clothes that I wouldn't wear for long. So I guess I am now a June surgery girl but good luck and let the journey begin!!!

      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.
