Hi Trudi. I'm in Lansing and got banded on April 28th. I can be a buddy with you, but I'll warn you that I'm still new!

I know that you told me you went through Sparrow. I am getting banded on June 13. I'd love to have you as my mentor, since we are both from Lansing. I am a 49-year old woman, single mother of two. Tell me more about you? Perhaps we will see each other at the Sparrow support groups. Do you go? How do we email each other outside of this forum?

Hi Trudi,

My name is Marilyn. I live in Roseville, MI which is a suburb of Detroit. I got my band in August of last year. I've lost about 95 lbs. and am so happy with the band. It has changed my life already and I'm not even to goal yet! :Angel_anim: I'd be happy to share my story and be of support to you.

      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.
