A Good Recommendation



Recommended Posts

Good Morning Everyone;

I have been banded since 7/1 and have learned a lot from the experience so far. One of the things I have picked up was the need to journal my food and weight. There is a free site that allows you to do just that. Its called Fitday. Try this link and check it out. Protein. It also graphs your weight loss. It makes the trip much easier to follow.

So if you are pre-band or post, this is a good site.

Hope this helps

Hal

Hello Feel :smile:

The 850 is approximate, but very close to real. I have had no hungar at all. I have been watching my Protein very closely and am always above 55g's. Could I eat more? -- Yes, but I generally don't. Sometimes when I am in the kitchen, I will open the cottage cheeze and take a tea spoon snack - not for hungar, but for taste.

I was banded 7/1 and have absolutely no restriction. I have not tested my limits, but can drink liquids in gulps, and my scramble eggs go down like before the band.

Hope this helps.

Hal

      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.

        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!
