When the conversation goes like this:

Coworker, "OMG! You look so great!!!"

Lapbander, "Yeah, yeah, I'm actually wearing clothes that fit. So how are you?"

When you beg the waitress for you to order off the kids menu and she looks at you strange when you say, "No, I want nothing to drink with that"

When you can have a conversation with another banster and it's like another language. The everyday average person has NO idea what the hell you are talking about:

I need a restriction! (Why are you in trouble?)

I have a 10cc band! (Really, what kind of music do they play?)

My port has flipped! (Can boats do that?)

I PB'd (Huh?)

I'm too tight (Oh, that one can have so many implications)

I need a fill (naughty, naughty, naughty!)

I'm too loose (The old lady whispers to her friend, "the little slut.")

      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. 🤞
