Hugs and many prayers have been sent for the both of you. Keep the faith and everything will be okay. YOU will both learn and will be happy on your new hourney together. Please don't make this a contest with each other, but a learning experience for the two of you. Since each body is different, one of you may adapt a certain pattern that will not work for the other. I'm looking at this as a motivation from within for each other.

Mom and daughter a BIG HUG for both of you.

Best wishes and Keep the Faith.

God bless you both. Having a partner to keep you motivated is great. My daughter had her lapband done 2 weeks after me, and my son had his done 1 1/2 years later. Now, my son-in-law had his done this past November. We are a 4 lapband family. Best wishes and God speed to recovery!!!What a way to start the New Year!!!

My daughter and I had our surgery May 2011 on the same day. It has really be nice to be able to encourage each other. We live 2 hours away from the Dr. so it is great to be able to go together (plus she drives and I don't have to).

      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?
