My Very Own NSV



Recommended Posts

I have finally fit into a size 8. I have not wore that size since I was a freshman in high school. I am so excited. Moving right along, I can't wait to fit into size 6.

If anybody is wondering if this band thing works, I am living proof. I never thought it would when I first got it done. It took me two fills before I noticed anything. I was banded in Dec. and had my 2nd fill in Feb.

It has been worth the weight(wait). So for future bandsters, hang in there. I was the one that kept sitting there saying I have tried everything, and I bet this does'nt work either. BOY was I wrong.

A size 8?! That's a size that I long ago deemed a fantasy - but it sure would be fun to get there. Congratulations!!

      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!
