Well this is so strange for me. I had my 4th fill on December 17. I was able to eat very little and didnt feel much hunger, everything was going smooth, I was doing my workout four days a week and I even thought I have reach my green zone. Since then I have lost 18 lbs. but yesterday the temperature dropped to 10F and it is crazy but I've being feeling too tight, problem to keep down even Water. Does the weather has anything to do with the band or it's just me?? Omg I need help

Yes it has a lot to do with it. I remember when we had our first thunderstorm after my surgery and I thougt I was gonna die. I called my surgeon and he said it was the weather and it will pass. Thankfully it did. He explained he science behind it...I don't remember what he said, but I can tell you when it's gonna rain.LOL

Swelling can effect the band too. Too much sodium, TOM, too many carbs will make you retain water/swelling, band irritation.

Weather, stress, sinuses, TOM, you name it can effect the tightness of your band. Some time ago I read a post from a vet bandster that said the band was like a toddler, you never know what you are going to get from day to day, lol.

      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!
