well at least you get to loose because of your period..I had a hysteroctomy a few years ago so I do not get that....

I have stalled out again with my weight loss. it seems that I will stall and then WHAM!! it starts up again!! I do know that I do not need a fill. I am very tight right now. only able to eat about 2 ounces at a time. so that is not the issue... Just our bodies adjusting..

I just wish it werent so frustrating!!

Dear Desiree,

Here's what I've noticed in the month that I have been reading these threads.... that just about everybody, no matter what their start weight is loses 40lbs in the first 4 months. That averages to 10lbs a month. I've noticed that with the women on the boards.... men, thats always another story. Your ticker seems to be reflecting the exact same thing. Sooo, if you got banded on Aug 18th then Dec 18 makes 4 months and 40 lbs. Hows that make you feel? I have other neat ways of looking at weight loss and it will get you off the scale and to stop frustrating yourself. I desparately want to be in your shoes.... waiting for approval, maybe by end of the year. Hugs,

      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!

        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!
