I know that I went a little nuts in college after losing a lot of weight and decided that I REALLY liked beer...I drank lots of beer (I usually drank liquor) because a.) i liked it and b.) it was cheaper. And I was in a sorority, and well gotta show off those beer bonging, keg stand, beer chugging skills right? WRONG....my band hasnt been the same since, I dont know if there really is anything wrong with it because I havent had it looked it because Ive been preggers, but after Im done being pregnant Im gonna go get it checked out...I know that I didnt have much of a fill when I was doing all that with the beer and after a month of beer drinking, I was puking EVERYTHING (even Water and milk and stuff) up every time I ate or drank ANYTHING. Seems like the carbonation + band mix really screwed me up....granted its been a long time since all that happened and it could have been a temporary problem, Im completely unfilled right now and can eat anything! WHICH IS NOT GOOD! Before I started drinking carbonation, even unfilled I felt restriction...now its nothing at all, like I may have stretched out the pouch and it allows more food to initially go in....I have several theories, none of them certain or proven lol! But I definately think my carbonation intake could have messed up my band

    Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

  Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

  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.

    Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
