Hello everyone,

I found out today my surgery date is HALLOWEEN, 10/31/07. I'll be banded at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston AKA BIDMC. My surgeon is Dr. Schneider. I meet all of my insurance criteria so I am not putting out any negative vibes...I will be approved!

Margie :)

Margie - I am getting banded on Halloween, too. I guess that means no Halloween candy for us! Which is probably a good thing ... for me, at least!

OregonHolly - My first name is Brooke if you want to add it to the roll call ... you have my screen name and date already.

I am sooooo excited I can't stand it!!

:whoo:

Hey October Bandsters!

I'm super-excited to be a part of the group, and lucky enough to have a July '07 bandster as a friend and mentor. She forwarded me some key info on "shopping list" items to have BEFORE you go in for surgery. Some of these items seem a little excessive to me, but a lot of it is extremely helpful. So, to each his/her own, and have at it:

      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. 🤞

      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.
