Anyone Getting Banded In July?



Recommended Posts

My tentative surgery date is July 23rd because of my work schedule. It may change by a week but it looks like I'm gonna be a July baby. Anyone else out there that will be banded in July?

Yay! I thought everyone would be June. I am so glad someone else is in July. Soon as you find out your date let me know, we can be bandster buddies :)

Me too! Looks like July 10th for me! I am starting to really get excited! A little nervous for the 2 week pre-op diet. Don't know if I will be able to handle it! After all that's why I need the Lapband!

I am hoping for July 11. Will see what Dr. Ahmad says on Tuesday. So excited despite getting some negative feedback from some family!

Yeah the Dr said I have to be on the Atkins diet for 2 weeks prior to surg. This way my liver will shrink and there will be more room to work and I won't have as much swelling

      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!
