Wow. I was banded in October too and have only lost 20 lbs. Are you feeling alot of restriction? I have had several fills and still can eat alot. I have to stop myself.

I've never really understood "restriction". I measure and weigh my food and what is on the plate is it. But, a lot of times I have to remember it is "meal time" as I don't get hungry so I guess the answer is yes I have good restriction. I have only had one fill and then a slight unfill due to nighttime reflux but it has so far seemed to be enough. I hope you can find that ever elusive sweet spot soon! Good luck!

      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'. ???

        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!
