Eat slower to feel full faster???



Recommended Posts

I was banded on June 7,2011 and to me it seems by eating 3 times a day is helping more than eating 6 times a day I lost 21 lbs after surgery but then gained 6 after I went back to reg foods, but this morning I've started to see my weight coming on down like a contestant on the price is right!!! I'm happy I'm excited,though I haven't had my first fill yet but I'm ready! Everybody is different, one thing I would stress to y'all folks having a rough time, it gets better and better u WILL adjust always remember the days off the money spent and the heart to even get the surgery is because u want to better ur self, if something don't work for u and it worked for someone on this forum just remember we are all different pay attention to YOUR body and u will be just fine, I go in for a fill on July 5, and I can't wait! I can eat anything but in moderation, I sometimes see food and think damn Im hungry,so I drink dome Water or a Protein Shake and bam!!! I'm all good. I'm 29 yrs old and have had some ups and downs but finally feel like there is light at the end of the tunnel,and yeah some of u guys might say u still have a long road ahead of u. I feel like I'm driving on that road just taking in the scenery! Any of u guys have any questions bout surgery don't hesitate to message me, I was lucky to have 2 buddies that had the surgery with tremendous success!!!

Thanks for the positive aspect. Sometimes those are not written about on here. Every pound down is a pound gone. You are an inspiration to us. I am only 4 day post op but working hard at each step of the way. This is definitely not easy but doable.

      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.

      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!
