I'm an August girl too. August 22, to be exact.

I'm more of a lurker than a talker, probably due to my limited typing skills. :rolleyes But want to say hello to everyone.

Hi Everyone. My date is August 13! I can't wait to get the show on the road. I am a bit nervous about the whole thing. I was ready for the surgery 2 months ago but my insurance denied me originally and I had to appeal. Now I have to do liquids all over again but if I got ready once, I will be ready again! best of luck to all.

Hi ShelbiCallie! Looks like we are going to be in the same place at the same time! I am also being banded with Dr. K on the 22nd! We can be band buddies :)

Good luck to all the August friends who are banding during the upcoming week of August 13-17! May your process be as smooth as mine was this past week!

      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.
