I love this site... I am having surgery tomorrow and so is my daughter, If we can get there. We live in Oh and we are having a very bad snow and Ice storm today..UGH.

This site helped up both decide to have the band done. We read this everyday and if we miss reading it we feel like we missed something important that we need to know. lOL

      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.
