I on this forum almost everyday and I never post. It's good to know I'm not alone with certain situations especially the "embarrassing" ones

I was banded Feb 1 and have since lost 80 lbs and have never had a fill. Threads about the fills kinda freaks me out. I'm a myfitnesspal addict (ballajones - feel free to add me) it helped me lost 20lbs pre-op. (100 lbs total YAY)

I've have many ups and downs and even considered getting my band removed. Thanks to this forum it helps me realize I will have good and bad days. I will say everyday is a learning process.

So I just wanted to say thank you all your threads keep me going. Hopefully I get to my goal weight by feb

Congratulations on your success so far. I was also banded in February and have lost over 50 lbs. I have had several fills, not sure how many total. Don't worry about the fills, they are easy. The hard part is the day to day lifestyle change, but it sounds like you are doing well with that.

I also use myfitnesspal, its a great tool and has kept me honest! I just sent you a friends request (ajtexas0).

      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!
