I had gained a few pounds but now am back down to 195.2. I had a fill on 5/20 so hopefully that is already helping.

280.5 today. That's 6.5 down this week and 33 down total.

Of course, I had to go in yesterday and get UNfilled because my band was too tight. The PA said my surgeon will fill the band completely and then take out enough to make the pressure equal and ensure there are no air bubbles. For some it's as little as 0.5ccs. For me, the PA took out 3.2ccs and I still have 0.5ccs left. That was almost 4ccs in there before. Now I'll probably have no restriction like most people a month out and I'll be ravenous and stop losing so quickly. Oh well, to me it's better than having chest pain everytime I swallow.

i had my first appointment with my dr today. i am down 16 lbs since i was banded 4/7. The dr feels i'm doing great and did not do a fill today. i go see him again in July and he will decide then if i need the first fill then. i'm so very excited - i haven't weighed on fridays yet but now i can set my scale to match the dr's office and will begin the weekly weigh ins. Hope you all have a safe and happy Memorial Day!! :thumbup:

      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.
