Soooo, like... I ate a porterhouse and kept barfing while I was eating. I didn't chew well but I didn't need to, it was only a rare porterhouse.

I eat and barf, eat and barf, eat and barf. Sometimes I slime too.

Whatever shall I do?

Nonono.... staples don't count. Neither does rerouting everything. ONLY the band counts as not home grown.

Sheesh... don't you know anything?

<off topic>

Are you who I think you are on that other forum? Starts with an "A" and ends with Lau...? Did you talk to my friend Deb?

Oh, I feel like an idiot! THAT forum didn't enter my mind until I was about to submit this message. I thought you were talking about OH! Yep, that's me.

Deb is playing along with my story. She is the ONLY person that knows I am banded and that is how I know Dr. A. That explains my TT, etc. She isn't telling anyone I am banded.

I am AzA. I'm a Rev, don'cha know!

Deb is cool, she's really a neat person. First on that forum to admit she's banded.

She is a more brave soul than me!

Yep, I'm not sure I'd have the guts to ask on a board of mostly "normals."

I don't. That is why she is going along with my story of how I know Dr. A. She knows the truth. She is keeping my secret.

She's cool... I like her a great deal. I've been posting there for years. So has she. She's good people.

However, that board is farrrr more accepting of fatties or those that are not typical people. They are about as accepting as they can get. If I told them the truth, they wouldn't care one way or another. They accept me for what and who I am.

That's what is great about THAT board.

Yep, it's a far, FAR cry from OtHers. It's definitely a very interesting board.

LOL this is crazy??

BTW: is it better to get the band in Mexico or the states? My insurance won't cover the band, and theres this great surgeon that NO ONE has heard of in Mexico that says he will do it for $100 dollars! Is it a good idea?

YES YES YES!!!!!!!! The cheaper they are the more they care about their patients. It makes NO difference that they have to pay $2K for the band, if they will band you for $100 they care about you MORE.

GO THERE!

Some docs make their own bands in their garage. They are superior to the other bands, go there fer sure!

YAY! Im so excited that I got your approval because going on the internet and getting advice instead of consulting a doctor as well is always a better and cheaper idea! Now I have to find someone to do the fills. How do they get it in there? Im afraid of needles!

Im still unsure thought...my friend got her band from a fancy doctor that her insurance paid for and she cant even eat burgers! Or frenchfries! or fried chicken? And she only eats 2 times a day and hasnt had a little debbie in months! IDK if I can handle that, I thought it was suppose to make you skinny no matter what? And you drop like 100lbs in a month!

      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.
