Looking for a Band Buddy in the Bronx



Recommended Posts

Hey all!

So, I was banded in August of 2009, so I am approx. a lil over 5 months post op. I always thought I would be really involved on here and on youtube with other bandsters, but I have yet to accomplish that. I would really love to have someone close by that is going through or even went through this process, just a band buddy of sorts. I'm super supportive and I'd love to root ya on! Been feeling a little lonely in this process lately is all.

Anywho, feel free to contact me if your interested in making a local bandster pal :)

Hey everyone I am also for the Bronx.. I was banded November 2008. That was a very exciting day for me. Needless to say the band did not work for me. I am NOT upset a little sad at times because I had set goals and dreams. I am still working with my doctor to see other options. I have not been on this site in a very long time and the only reason why I can back today is I need a little support from my lap band family. I hope everyone is doing good with there journey and hope to be talking to any of you soon….

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!

      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!
