Welcome to banded life. I cut shrimp into tiny pieces. It can be a difficult thing to eat.

I have been banded since October...I am still teaching myself to eat slower and smaller bites. LOL I hate being "stuck" so I know one of these days the lesson will stick

I havent had a fill yet was banded on 11/30. First fill this week on 1/28. I'm alittle bit nervous worried that I'll have these stuck episodes people talk about. But have probably been eating to much without a fill So i'm looking forward to having a bit more control over my eating.

I am nearly 4 years banded. Sitting waiting for a piece of ham to go down or maybe come up. Some of us never learn (self!).

Yep....I throw up a lot (usually from eating too fast/too large bites). The first couple of times were very scary....now I welcome that relief when I'm stuck. Lean over the sink, cough and *up it comes*.

      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!
