I got banded last Wednesday, delayed 2 days due to the Hurricane :rolleyes:

There has been some minor discomfort, not much. I had much more discomfort walking out of a Chinese Buffet!!

What I dont miss is the overeating and obsessing about food.< /p>

I am so glad that I didnt overeat today :rolleyes:

My journey just started, but so far so good.

I went on the liquid pre op and lost about 15 lbs.

My weigh in at surgery was 301 on Wednesday. Today, 3 days later, its 290.

I havents seen the 2's in along time!!

Thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences; it truly helps me!!

Good luck to you all!!:rolleyes:

I don't miss struggling to reach my feet to put my shoes on, I dont miss not fitting comfortably on airplanes, I don't miss walking past store windows and thinking if only I could loose this weight.

I don't miss worrying about whether I would be able to fit into the seat on the rides in Orlando when I take my grandchildren on vacation. I barely fit into the new Harry Potter ride (imagine someone jumping up and down on you trying to get the latch to click in place) last summer, and I put on even more weight after that.

I don't miss fast food either!

I don't miss eating anything I could get my hands on just to get that "full" feeling.

I don't miss my back fat rolls touching.

I love hearing "You are so tiny now!"

If I can do it so can you.....

Today is one week!

I am soooooooooooooooo excited!!

You all have given my alot to think about: clothes, rides at the amusement park and even dips.

Until you experience what we experience, the food addiction, nobody can understand.

They can be understanding, but they just dont understand.

I DONT miss "hunting" for food while thinking about a binge: the perfect meal, which of course never happened and only led to terrible discomfort after overeating...AGAIN!! :angry:

Thanks everybody for your support and guidance.:rolleyes:

I couldnt do it without you.

      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!
