Hi everyone :mad:

Soco - I there is a new poll up for the name, they narrowed down the top 3 names and we are voting on those, so we should know soon what the Sept name will be :sad:

BOO - WTG congrats girl. I am so happy you got the approval. :blush2: I think we all know how excited you are, how we all felt when we got approved by our insurance as well. :hurray: YEAHHHHHH Boo :hurray:

Kim - I am feeling better every day. My tummy is rumbling and turning. I feel nausea at times and that I might throw up, but think it is more a burb that I need to get out. I am having a hard time getting the fluids in, but I am challenging myself each day to get more and more fluids in me. As for the soreness... not really sore that much any more. A little pains here and there. More than anything right now my belly itches.

I hope everyone else is doing good. We are on our way and pretty soon we will all be talking about our first fills. :smile:

Also again there is the yahoo group for us to all stay in contact as well. I just realized today that there are apps that I have added to the group, where we can share recipes, our goals, a profile for yourself just for the group etc. Also in the apps I have added where you can add your birthday as well as your band date.

The group was down for a bit but Yahoo has fixed the errors. The group can be joined here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/banded909/join

Hope everyone had a great labor day weekend. To all those still recovering hope it goes well and those going in here soon, you will be in my thoughts and prayers. :)

Hi all.. got my band this morning so my fears were mute. I went in at a little after 9am and was back at home by noon. Other than feeling like I got hit by a truck when they woke up up...I don't feel too terribly bad. food is the furthest thing on my mind which is strange for me considering how much I depended on it previously. I must say the throat pain seems to be worse than the incision pain right now but they warned me about that pre-op. Time for a nap

I was banded last Thursday, Sept. 3rd. Had to spend the night in the hospital which diasppointed me. My surgeon says that half his patients go home the same day but I had complications from allergic reactions so I needed to stay. Here I am 5 days letter feeling slightly weak and not having as much energy as I am used to but other than that, things are great. Going back to work tomorrow. :mad:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
