Update, Unfill Yet Still A Victory



Recommended Posts

had lapband on 1/24/12, and on 1/19/12 had a partial fill of .25, total of 2.75. Well the rest of the week was miserable, not that I couldn't eat turkey , I couldn't eat anything, 2 olives well chewed and I was full, 10 Beans and I was full , and shortness of breath I was not having a very good quality of life, Dr. did partial unfill of .15. today

When the nurse weighed me and told me number, I was ahh man I gained weight, she's like what are you talking about you lost, 3 1/2 lbs in 8 days.

Through out the whole time, I keep thinking I shouldn't of ate that, oh too much of that, yet here I am lost 70lbs!!

When I hear people complain about weight not lost, I have to sometimes bite my tongue because I know they are not watching what they are eating as well as the amount. I could have started eating sliders when I couldnt eat much but I stuck to spoonfuls of Peanut Butter :P , I will probably gain some weight back but 70 lbs today, this moment... yeah!!!!

Hope everyone else is doing good too!

      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.

        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!
