Wish me luck going to get a beatdown today



Recommended Posts

Well.... I seem to have fallen of course. My last fill was in March and I did get significant restriction. The problem is I stopped going to support group and I have gained around 10 pounds. Not really down about it but I just let it get away from me. Went away from this board which has always helped me. I am going to face the music today and get a fill under flouro. Any tips on how to get back on track would be helpful. I am expecting a stern lecture from my doctor today.

It is not the end of the world, you can always pick up where you left off. I have to admit, sometimes it is just boring to work the band and a little break is what is needed. Please don't go in shamefaced like the doctor is your parent or judge/jury. You took a break and now you are ready to engage again. In days gone by you probably would have gained even more and not had this tool to help you!!!! Keep reading and posting.

Best wishes,

Mimi

Well, first off, congrats on what you have lost, and congrats and catching the problem early before it gets too out of hand and wanting to correct it.

You know the band rules; start to follow them again. Get your fill and start to watch your portions. Count your calories and make sure you get all of your Water in. Good luck and you can do this! :o

If your doc. is a good one- he won't berate you. You seem very ready to get back on track. You know what to do- you can do this! I highly reccoment starting a workout routine if you haven't already. I increased my intensity and the scale has started moving again. Good luck!

I have a good doc. He will be very matter of fact. Workouts have really been hit and miss this summer. Thanks for the encouragement.

      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!
