Recommended Posts

OMG, I am soooo happy!!!!! I have the biggest smile on my face today! I told a few friends at work that the day I came in wearing a dress, they would know I had lost 100 lbs. (I always wear jeans to work.) Well, today was the magic day!

Here are my before and after photos; they are also in my profile, along with progress photos.

I'm sooo excited!!! :wink:

Thanks, everyone! I was banded on May 7, 2009, though I had lost a few pounds on my preop diet. The before picture was taken the day before I started my preop diet.

Hi - thanks so much for reply - it came across my e-mail. But how do I go in and access replies to me. I can't quite figure this thing out. I have a reply from Hummingbird and don't know how to retrieve it. Thanks for the help and for your positive message.

Can you eat regular food after a certain time - ?:smile2:

Go to the upper right-hand corner of the LapBand Talk page, where your login name is. It should say, Welcom, shurtado. Underneath that is a link to Private Messages. Click on that link and it will take you right there. :)

You can eat any food you want, but it's just like any diet, you have to consider which foods are really best for you. As you'll see in my PM, I made a huge change in what I ate. No white sugar, no white carbs. But not everyone does that. You do what you know you can live with. :thumbup:

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      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!
