What an awesome accomplishment! I can't wait to see a 1 again either... The last weight I remember as a high schooler was when I was 16 and between 185-190... My normal BMI range is supposedly 120-150, but I cannot remember when I weighed that.

I have been watching some youtube lapband journey's and it's amazing how great everyone looks when they get around 200. I cannot wait to be there! I know we can all do this if we keep our heads in the game.

Grats on the weight loss and continued success that sort of feedback does the mind, body and heart good :)

You will be sucessful if you want to be.

Having the lap band surgery is all about life style changes. Letting go of your old habits and

giving up to some of the foods you may enjoy.

But the rewards of being trim and fit far outweigh that porterhouse steak!

But sadly, there are peole who refuse to let go, refuse to learn new ways, and will never acheive the thing

they say they want!

I quess it's human behaviour.

      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!
