MORE Abkin/Bertha support group meetings



Recommended Posts

Due to popular demand, the wise folks at the offices of Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeons have added another LapBand support group to their monthly schedule! Now we'll be meeting twice a month, on the second and last Wednesdays of each month at 7:00 p.m. The meeting is on the same floor as the office, and pre-bandsters are MORE than welcome!

Modesty prohibits me from divulging the identity of one of the co-moderators :) :nervous , but the other one is our own Alexra!! Let's hear it for Alexra!! :clap2: :clap2: :whoo:

I'll be at the next one!

I missed the last one, it was rainy and it really flares my Fibromyalgia up.

Is it okay to bring your partner? My boyfriend has some concerns about the surgery.

To my knowledge they should start this month, check the http://www.advancedlaparoscopicsurgeons.com/ web page to make sure. I will also speak with Alexandra as time gets closer and with Linda the Nurse in his office to be 100% sure. And Leenerbups, of course being your boyfriend, the more the merrier, lots of people bring their loved ones with them... whats a support meeting without support from them too.

      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!
