Hi Jen,

I am Jenn, 35, mother of 3! I was banded December 29th, 2010 and love the idea of having friends to check in on one another!

I have a daughter 1.5 and my son is 3.5, I'm having a hard time NOT carrying them, I have to keep reminding myself it's only been a week!!! I am feeling great other than the crazy itchness if the scars, how about you?

Hi, we are the same age and I also have two kids--boys! I was banded on 3/18/11. I would be happy to be your friend. I am also looking for friends especially right now....feeling a little bummed and useless. How old are you kids? Mine are 2 and 6.

You would think with all of our online knowledge being in our 30's this site wouldn't be so complex!!!

Thanks! So simple :D

I use an app on my phone called myfitnesspal.com, I wish this site was like that so we could push each other!! They are having this "april springs" competition but I feel like it's cheating to take part, now if it was ALL newly lapbanded people that would be awesome!!!

I can't wait to be able to exercise :D

hi jen. i got banded on 3/15. no kids but happy to be an auntie to several.

i'll kick you in the bum if you do the same. :D

      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!
