Had teal before, but washed out quickly.

Yeah, same with my blue.

Since you had a band (and, I believe, WASabubblebutt) and got sleeved after, which one would you go with now that you've had both, if you could choose again.

I didn't have a band so I'm not a good person to ask. Obviously I picked the sleeve instead. :) The main thing is you have to be willing to have a permanent change to your anatomy. It took me a while to get to that point. Before that I was "band all the way!"

Happy Bandiversary Luluc!

Any words of wisdom, reflections over the past year, how you felt when you first started vs. how you feel now and looking back?

Happy Bandiversary, Luluc!!

SNT, woo hoo, it is almost time girl!!! I am so excited for you.

As for belly pictures, I have to agree, it cracks me up when I sign on and there they are for all the world to see.

Lastly, I just feel the need to say that I work with a bunch of blooming idiots.

As much as I would love to say that caffeine doesn't make me bitchy, it does. It just makes me want to yell at every stupid person on the planet. For example, I just saw that DDS's post about how the band sucks...blah, blah, freaking blah. He doesn't realize what grammar really is, apparently, and...guh. I could go on, but I will spare any rep he actually has...

Screw my utter need for caffeine to study...

...and I digress. haha.

      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.
