Hello Fellow Tennesseans,

Hey Tammy,

I'm going to be banded at Vanderbilt. I had to do 6 months diet with my doctor. We are now resubmitting to Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Should hear back within 2 weeks. I can't wait. Seems like I've been waiting forever. All of my other stuff is done. Do you, by chance, work at Vanderbilt? I'd love to know more about your experience. Please feel free to pm me.

Jen

I was banded in Clarksville Tn, by Dr. Hruska, on Nov 22 2004. DR. Hruska was in with Dr. Steely but she moved out of town so I am going to see Dr. Steely on Feb 8th for my 3rd fill. I have 3 cc in now and hoping for .5 cc fill to top me off for a while.

      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!
