Lisa - welcome aboard! Will your surgery be covered by Insurance or are you paying for it yourself? Do you have lots of family & friends to support you through this?

Glad to see that you've found a great site for support & info from others doing the same.

God's blessings & good luck as you move forward!:D

Hi Lisa,

Welcome aboard!! I am in the UK also and I have found the people on this board to be a wealth of information, there doent seem to be anyone near me who has even heard of the band - let alone someone who has one!

Good luck with your surgery, it is a piece of cake.....and we all know how easy that is!!! ;)

      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.
