Banded Yesterday!



Recommended Posts

I was super busy with work and getting things in order right up until yesterday. Was banded yesterday morning and also had a hiatal hernia repair :) So far I feel great, a little soreness which I expected but completely manageable. I am super excited to start this new journey to a thinner me! I have been really lucky to have supportive family, friends and co-workers throughout this process!

Hi! Congrats!! I'm 3 days post op and feel pretty good. I'm just a little sore in my left rib cage (the back ribs, not front) but very tired. Taking a shower and getting dressed takes a lot of energy. I'm also focusing on getting liquids down and resting. :)

Congratulations to everyone, I'm a newbie . I celebrated 30th Wedding anniversary in Dominican Republic and ate what I wanted . I had my 1st supervised diet visit since I did labs gained 5lbs. I must admit I was enjoying myself because I knew I was going to get started when I got back to Atlanta. Now I READY to do this and I enjoy reading comments for encouragement .

      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?
