If you have a LBT on your cell it is as good as email. Most don't like to give out email addresses as they can be spammed from the forum.

Hey guys i just got banded on friday as well...how are you guys feeling? Emotionally and physically? I am mentally overwhelmed i believe i am over thinking things way to much. Worried about Vitamin intake knowing i am getting what i need to worried about the fact i wonder what that new chix sandwich at wendeys i see on TV taste like even though I DONT WANT IT..i just thought i wouldn't even think about it that much after the band.. i did have 1 oz purred peaches with 3 oz of dannon fit and lite greek yogurt for lunch and 1 oz pureed peaches with pureed cottage chez for dinner and of course lots of h2o and my Protein shakes.... physically i am feeling pretty good a bit sore around belly button and other incisions i have been real fortunate not to throw up and have been able to keep everything down although i can feel gas in the chest area and wish it would just go away already lol. Hope u guys all feel well..will check back later internet is not working that great at this time ;( hope it will be fully fixed soon:) good luck to all....

Hey people. I was banded 4yrs ago. I have had a lot of issues with my band. I've learned a lot a long the way. Support is very important. Honestly, I isolated myself. I did not have the best support system in medical team, and I allowed that to deter me from using the band the way it was intended.

For you newbies, you really shouldn't have the feeling of vomiting. Its too early. Your body is still healing and you aren't really able to explore foods. I'm here for any one that wants to talk.

I've recommitted myself to this process. I'm eating right. I'm exercising and listening to my body and band.

Congrats on the loss! bread is really hard to swallow at the best of times as well as steak. Even when your on normal food the softer meat is the better cos you have to chew it till its mush before you swallow.

Ok' date='what about leafy vegetables like cabbage, greens etc.[/quote']

I never ate cabbage, it might be trial and error unless someone here has had cabage? Greens are fine with lettuce probley crispy is easier to eat. I used cos lettuce. Capsciun, cucumber brussel sprots Beans snow peas and sugar snap peas. Not sprouts i found them hard to try and chew to mush to swallow. fruit is different for most people. Just remember you have to be able to chew to mush or spit it out. I hope this helps

      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!
