:) I am to be banded on March 13. I am new to this site and have very much enjoyed and learned so much from all I have read from each one of you. I am interested in hearing from someone in the St. Petersburg, FL area. Tomorrow I begin my "liquid" food. Please pray for me that I do well with my surgery. Again thanks everyone...Ya'll are so supportive to each person!!

I am due to be banded on March 19, 2007 by Dr. Jose Rodrigez. I can hardly wait. I have been heavy to obese ever since I had my two children over 20 years ago. I have yoyoed myself to 233 lbs. and I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.

My knee feels like I played pro ball for 20 years, I take high blood pressure medicine, I have zero energy which makes it hard to enjoy life. Let's do this once and for all! Prayers always appreciated. :amen:

Start pre-op diet: March 5th, 2007

Band date: March 19th, 2007

Dr. Jose Rodriguez ~ Acuna, Mexico

233 begining weight

I'm totally with you on this - my right knee kills me constantly. If I sit with my knee bent, it gives out when I first stand up - I'm way too young for this.

My surgery is less than a week away - this Saturday. I can't wait!

      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.
