I work out Mon-Thu! I had joined my fitness pal! I take in about 1570cal a day, I just had my 3rd fill last tue! and I feel I can eat more than I can with this 3rd fill.

I had filled tighter with the 2nd fill.

IMO that seems like a lot of calories. I still (2 yrs post band) average 1,000 a day.

Also a lot of this is mental.

Are u drinking enough Water? If u think u may be hungry sip some water, wait a bit and see if u still feel hungry

Protein? ? Are u getting enough? I start each day with a New Whey Liquid Protein. 3 oz liquid and 42g of protein

we all get stuck a a weight sometimes..I was banded 12/19/11, I down 65 pounds. I only lost 2 pounds since my last fill in May. I just had another fill this past thrusday and I down 5 pounds since then. Get your Protein in, Water and reduce stress. Stress can do crazy things to you body. I know how you feel. hang in there.

try to get at least 80 grams of Protein each day. cut the calories, at least down to 1300. I think that will help you.

give us a days menu. that might help to figure this out. sometime we are eating things that we don't realize are not such a good idea or too much fat, salt or sugar.

Keep us updated!

If you can eat as much as you say, you should wait about 2 weeks beyond your last fill and schedule another. Be very careful though. Tight restriction can sneak up on you just like that.

And what are you eating? Are you eating like a green zone bandster or are you eating like a bandster hell bandster?

You must follow the guidelines to find restriction. If you are eating slider and banned foods, you won't lose weight. Just saying.

      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!
