It took me at least 30 per meal. lunch took almost an hour. If I ate everything I think it would take an hour to eat, but I'm still getting full off of about 1/2 a cup. Which is good, except my scale is boycotting weight loss this past week. Grr. How many calories a day are you eating? I wanted to get to 800 today but only managed 630. I just wasn't hungry or got full. I wonder if I could possibly still be swollen. It's hard to think so little food fills me up.

its taking me at least that long as well... especially with meat as i chew a lot longer and wait longer in between mouthfuls. Aat lunchtime it took me 3/4 of an hour. Im having a half cup. trying to keep it at that. Im hungry enough to eat the lot at the moment. its just im so slow. You could be a bit swollen still.... its not that long since you were banded. it takes at least six weeks - two months for initial swelling to subside. i dont think i have much swelling now . im a month on the 22.. two days away. i do feel some restriction though so there must be some there but not much i dont think.

im having fish tonight. just trying to work out on myfitnesspal the weight of my fish so i can add it to my chart. it looks as if , when i work it all out, im still down on calories. im only supposed to have 1000 a day at the moment.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
