Recommended Posts

I have had 3 fills now and this has been my experience for all 3. My first fill, I got the fill and lost 8 lbs the first week. Then nothing. A month later, I got my second fill, lost 7 lbs the first week, then nothing. A month later, now, at my 3rd fill, I am still feeling really tight, but I lost 11 lbs from Monday Apr 12-Monday Apr 19. I am scared it's the only weight I'm going to lose unless I get another fill? And I think I am still really tight. I am crossing my fingers that I am at my sweet spot because it's never been this tight before? Trying to get used to it as I have thrown up 4 times in the last week. I've NEVER thrown up since surgery until now.

Anyone else have this issue?

I was banded 1/28 and had my 2nd fill 4/7. I now have 6cc's in a 10cc band. I think I am at my "sweet spot". I too have thrown up a lot since this one. I can no longer eat lunch meat. You need to go back and read your post tho. You lost 8,7,and 11 pounds between fills. You need to be proud of that. Keep up the good work!!

Oh, I am proud, don't get me wrong, LOL

I just don't like to be at a standstill for 2-3 weeks after the initial adjustment. I wish I was just losing "steady".

      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!
