me too. I need to lose a total of 90 pounds but it has been tough lately. The first 24 were with pre and post surgery diets and that was a breeze then the last ten was a fight. I have had two fills with some restriction. I feel like when I eat I am full and then a short while later I can eat again. I don't know if that means I need another fill or not. I just hate to pb and I do that alot now.

Hi all!

I have 75#s to go and am glad this thread was started. This band seems to be the best thing I have ever done for myself and enjoy learning from some of you wih more experience. Isn't it great to actually be able to see some downward movement from the scale? ? Take care!

I can't figure out if this is 50-100 LEFT to lose, or 50-100 lbs loss as the original goal. My original goal was 75 lbs, and I have 29 left to lose. Where do I belong????:help:

Very cool new forums!!! I had a total of 37.4kgs/83lbs to lose and now five months out I have only lost 23 so long way to go yet! Getting a fill on Friday so fingers crossed it will get things moving.

Question about forum - so when we get below 50 left to lose do we change forum groups??

Ok love the new forum lay outs !!!

My way of thinking is that is should be how much you had to lose from your date of being banded - not what you have left to lose..

I had 90 to lose from the date I got banded - have lost 59.5 have 30.5 to go to goal..

jmho.....

Thats what I was thinking - supporting each other right till the end??? Cause someone who has already lost 150lbs and has only 25lbs to go is going to be in a very different head space then those who only have to lose 25lbs.....

Also I'd love tips from those who are nearly at their goal of losing 50+ and if they moved weight groups forums might be harder to find them - just my thoughts anyway.

I agree 100% ... I know i am not the boss of anything or anyone - lets

just make an executive decision and that's what this thread will be

50-99 lbs to lose from your band date....

      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. 🤞
