Wow! You already look great! Your tummy is so flat! How are you feeling? Are you in alotof pain?

Can I ask a few questions? What weight did you start off at? How much did you lose and how long did it take you to lose it? Do you have any more weight to lose? Do you have kids? Sorry for all the questions but I'm approximately your age and am just starting but I know I will definetly need a TT down the road! Thanks!

Hi chica thankyou for your comments. Im two weeks post op now and yes i have to be honest im in a lot of pain still, i feel not o bad as i have plenty of pain killers too keep me going im doing more each day but i get tired very easily. I am in the uk and we work in stones here i was 19st 2 llbs day of my band op now im 13st so i think that 98 pounds ive lost, that took me 18 months on two fills. Im not sure if i can lose any more weight now as i have found a sweet spot now and im very happy with the weight i am now apart from the swelling from the t/t. As for kids yes i have 1 son Ryan hes nearly 7. I hope that answers some of your questions and i wish you luck on your lap band journey !!

I replied to the other thread, but wow, I just have to comment again!

Liz, you look fab. The pain and discomfort you are feeling now will be a distant memory in a another couple of weeks time when you are out shopping for all the new clothes you will need (I needed everything I brought after my TT, lol)

Just remember to take it as easy as you can for the next few weeks!

i had the vetical incision as i had loose skin at the sides this was to pull me and and give me some shape, the op was called a fluer de lys.

elisabeth and argon thankyou 4 your kind comments.

Chickie thankyou also, i hope my results turn out as good as yours have done when the swelling has gone down, i dont look much different in my clothes at this point, but that will be down to the swelling.

You look fabulous! I think you'll be really happy with the fleur de lys incision. It gets you so much smaller through the waist than the bottom cut alone does. Hang in there with the recovery. If you're like me, at about the 6 week mark you'll start to feel like yourself again and at the 8 week mark, you'll have to remind yourself that you ever had a pannus!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
