Staring off October with a BAND!!!



Recommended Posts

I band on the first and have the usual anxiety I get when I do anything for the first time (repelling down a cliff, giving an injection, learning to drive on the the interstate in/thru Houston, Yikes!!!). But, I did manage to get through it and now can look back and wonder what all the stress was about (O.K. Houston is still a little hairy - LOL). So despite my current jitters I'm sure I'll add this experience to the 'Been there done that' list sooner or later.

P.S. I'm not real computer savvy so I'm hoping this ends up on the October 07 Bandsters site....... if not could somebody help get it there ? Thanks. Dylan

hi my surgery date is the 4th in southhampton {England) so excited.....but nervous to , as so many people here seem to be having the sleeve or bypass. they reckon that you can fail so eaisly on the band, and they would rather pay the extra and go for the gold surgery, as they call it, but i will do my best and try hard to make it work.

      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.
