Marchie New Here



Recommended Posts

Hi Ya'll! I'm new here and was so glad to find other 'Marchies'. I was banded on March 20, 2007 and have lost 41 lbs. to date. 10 of that was pre-op. I just got my 4th fill and I'm near max fill close to 4cc. I'm 'very' tight now. I find I've lost a lot of motivation in the last 2 months. I'm slipping back into eating the old things like fried foods & junk. I stopped exercising too. I'm bored. I think I'm either comfortable with my size (12-14's from 22's), believe I really can't be any smaller, or am just plain scared to be smaller. I've never been smaller than this. I miss food on some days and want to hide behind the fat clothes sometimes. Luckily this is becoming less and less. I guess I'm really scared. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Glad to be here. Jeanie ;)

      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.
