Recommended Posts

Hi there, my name is Stace and I really want to get the surgery done but I need LOTS of info as I am just finding out about this band that will help me loose lots of weight. I am in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and if anyone knows where I can find a Dr. here that will do this surgery and the cost etc.....I would greatly appreciate any info provided.....thanks so much! :girl_hug: I have struggled with my weight since I had my first child (9 years ago) I put on 75 lbs with him....I was 110lbs when I got pregnant with him, the marriage was over and I was very depressed....so I ate and ate and ate........now I am re-married for 6 years now and have 2 more children....I did watch what I ate with my other 2 pregnancies, but did put on more weight and lost after I had them but basically I have just maintained my weight....anyways, I am excited to be here and I hope to get lots of infomation and make some new friends as well........hope to hear from you. :thumbup:

Hi Stace. Welcome!! You are going to love this site. Keep reading and asking questions. There are lots of nice people on here who are always willing to help. I can't help you find a doctor, but if you have any questions, let me know. I just got my band Friday, so I'm certainly not an expert, but I might be able to help you out. Good luck!!! Becky

      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.
