I Back And I So Mad With This Surgery



Recommended Posts

You need to work on the emotional eating, it won't go away. I also have this, and when I get overstressed or emotional, I try to occupy myself with other things so I don't eat.

If you need to, look into seeing a counselor or psychologist who can help you figure out why you are overeating. Also, if you are going to eat, find something healthy that tastes good (fruit, popcorn, etc).

Are you able to eat popcorn?

My husband and son will make it and it smells so good but I am afraid to eat it. I did pop a couple of kernals into my mouth once and then spit out the hulls because I was afraid they might get stuck. I probably should still try to stay away from it. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stop at a reasonable amount if I am able to eat it.

When you get a fill it will work great for awhile, until you lose more of the fat around your actual stomach and the band is not as tight. You should be going for fills every month. And you may only have ye great restriction for a week or two and then you lose more fat around the stomach, and the cycle repeats itself. That's why they say that the most successful band patients are those who are seen more frequently at surgeons office for follow up appointments.

Are you doing the Protein shakes? Are you focusing on Protein?

37 pounds in 2 months is huge. I don't understand why your upset? Sounds like you should focus on emotional eating & resetting your expectations. Maybe see a counselor to help you with that. Good luck

      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!
