Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Band date May 12th in Kentucky



Recommended Posts

I am married and a mother of 4. I have struggled with my weight since 1990. I am paying cash for this procedure because my insurance/company denied it even though it is medically necessary.

I have to make this successful and need all the help and guidance I can get.

Hi - I'll be happy to be there for you with any help I can provide. You can PM me at this site, or email me directly at sandi@bandedliving.com. I too had to pay privately because my insurance company did not cover and I understand botht he fear of failure and the frustration. You may find some useful information at my blog at Sandi's Banded Living — My Lapband Weight Loss Success Story

I have my story up there along with tips and tools I've found useful on my journey.

Good luck and please reach out with questions. You are not ALONE!

Hi Angie, my surgery is scheduled for May 5th. in Southern Indiana. I am from kentucky, was married for 19 yrs. but now divorced for 3. I am raising 3 kids.

I'm really excited and yes a little scared about the surgery. I need a buddy too so I thought since our surgeries are close together we could help each other?

you may message me on here or my email is zionssongbird@yahoo.com

      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.

      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!
