Hi, everyone. I haven't been on here in forever!! I feel off the wagon big time around Thanksgiving. I got Banded end of October and just had my first fill. I have 8 cc in a size 14 band. Is that a lot for a first fill? I can tell i feel full way quicker. I am excited to get back on the wagon. Anyone fall off for for a few mths? I am upset with myself but excited to start back the right way!

Hi kitty I also fell off the bandwagon. I was rebranded in jan , 2013, with a 14cc band. And have been putting on weight. With my other band I lost 88 lbs. since this new band, very disappointed

Sorry to hear that. How come you had to get re banded if you were doing so well?

      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!

        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!
