It my first fill today! Whoo hoo! I had my reg go to Breakfast for supper a fried egg on sandwich thin w a bit of cheese and had to not eat bread cause I was full. I guess I have a 12cc band and got 4cc's put in today and go back in a month! I didn't know what size my band was and never thought to ask till coming on here! Lol. My surgeon's nurse practitioner did it and not fleurons or whatever she just did it by feel and made me drink a glass of Water. It never hurt once but I could kind of feel it going into Band- how weird!

Come on more weight loss! Next fill is in 1 month on my 39th bday! Would be awesome to be down to a new size! I have lost 22 lbs on dr record but 26 on my personal scale in the morning in 6 weeks. My clothes are way more comfy but I have a bunch of clothes one size too small I can't wait to wear!

That is totally awesome! I get my first fill on July 31st and I too am down 22 pounds since preop-diet and post op surgery. I am really excited and glad to know that it was not painful! I think that has been my biggest concern about all of this, whether or not I can tolerate the fills! Well I will know in another week. Best of luck to you! :)

      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!
