I'm here, but doing a lot of lurking due to a silly thing like work getting in the way. Saw my doctor this morning. I went thinking I was ready for another fill, but he talked me out of it. He made sense, since he said I'm on target so far, so if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm already filled about 6.5cc in a 10cc band.

Btw, I noticed we were banded on the same day. We can Celebrate our anniversary together :)

wow - banded the same day AND within 2 lbs of each others' total loss? That's bizarre!

I guess we're band-sisters then!

Wow - sounds like quite a week. Hang in there, everyone! I decided to be proactive and work on a certification that might help me with the job I'm trying for in San Diego. I thought it had been out of the question, but there's a chance they'll take me if I get the certification done. I'd say it's worth dropping some cash and will give me something to distract while waiting for decisions to be made. Worst case, I'll have one more certification to impress with!

Things are pretty uneventful for me band wise - not much to add to most topics right now I guess.

I've also been insanely busy with work. After months of being dangerously slow, we're booming! Which is GREAT but I'm already feeling burnt out. Been losing weight like crazy though - no time to eat lunch :biggrin2:

Not at all! I get that all the time :success1:

We'll just have to call you "Sandrew". :shades_smile:

I've been out in the beautiful spring weather (well except for Mon/Tues) riding horses all week. It's 71 degrees today--gotta love Texas.

      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.
