May banding 2007



Recommended Posts

I don't see a thread for May 2007 yet. Or I am just blind. But yesterday I received my final approval from the insurance company. I scheduled for May 21st, because my is converting over to a new software in the first week in April and I have to be here for the full month. Little by little I am getting excited. I knew that I would be approved I just didn't know how long it was going to take. And that was the longest 2 weeks ever.

I don't remember seeing one---looks like you might get to start it!! I know April is filling up, they have quite a list of them going to be banded in April. I am an April 06 bander, so we have been in touch with the April 07-ers!

I bet you will be shocked how they start popping up with May dates---you won't be alone for long!

Congrats on getting your date! And welcome to LBT!!! This will be one of the best things you have ever done for yourself!!!

I hope April and May go by fast. I turn 40 on the 11th of April, so this is a pretty good birthday present. I told my husband tonight "just think you are going to married to a new women" My whole family is very excited. I am just ready to feel better.

the Specialty Surgery Center of Fort Worth on Precinct Line in Hurst across from Wal Mart does fills with flouro. I am not sure if they have issues with patients banded in Mexico but give them a call. Or call AIGB in the same building and ask them.

Good luck!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
