I had my surgery on 11-11-08, I have lost 30 pounds. I have had 3 fills for a total of 4cc's in my 10cc band. I am starting to get a little frustrated by my own food choices. Best of luck to you.

Wow you both sound like you are doing well. Remember its about 10 pounds a month and you are both at about that. So good job.

Looks as though your journey has been interupted. Hope all goes well for you

I was banded on November 4th. I just had my 3rd fill on Monday (2/23). As of this morning ( I only weigh in once a week ), I've lost 42 lbs. This last fill seems to have given me the right restriction, but I've pb'ed 3 times since. I can't eat wraps anymore and no cutlet type meats :-(. Oh well...it's just trial and error. I work out at the Y at least 4 times a week with my husband. He loves the energy I have now. Even my 6 year old compliments me. I absolutely love the compliments. On November 4th, I weighed 269, now I'm 227. I now weigh less than I have in 10 years!!! Good bye Lane Bryant!!!

I had surgery 11/11/08 and I'm done almost 50 lbs! The first 2 months were very easy and the last month or so has been more of a struggle with food choices & amount of food.I do have restriction because if I eat to fast I will PB.But other times I amaze myself of how much I can eat? I see the surgeon in 2 weeks so I'll see then what she recommend's.I have a total of 4 cc's.Best luck to everyone!!:wink:

      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.
