September Bandsters 2012 How Well Are You Doing



Recommended Posts

Hi I was banded on september 11 and just had my 6 week post op. I'm down 32 lbs, and learning as I go. I'm on reg food but taking it slow. I've gone through some personal changes recently a break up with my boyfriend and possibly new job. Both are good changes. I'm ready now to start working out to tone and build muscle. I'd be happy to hear from my fellow bandsters. Wishing everyone great success.

I was banded on Sept. 24. I have loss 24 lbs. I have had one 3cc fill but do not feel the restriction I thought I would feel. I do get hungry all the time. I am in the doctor's office right now to see about getting another fill.

I was banded on 9/27, down about 28 lbs. Original weight 273.8, current weight 246. I am back to working out. No fills and eating normal foods. I love the band! :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
