April 2 : My band date/new beginning



Recommended Posts

Woke up this am an couldn't sleep. Guess I have the surgery jitters a day early. Alot of mixed emotions going through me right now. I am so happy that I am being banded an still can't beleive it is happening it happened so quick just 2 days shy of my first appt last month am now I am going to be banded. I will be glad for my new journey an the support that I have from my friends am family it's a challenge that I'm ready to take along with my lapbandtalk buddies. I keep thinking now i will be able to run in the yard with my grandbaby an share moments with the two that we just adopted that are 5 an 8. i feel i have also just started over in parenthood because my kids are 17 yr 19 yr and 21 yrs old. Thanks to all of you for taking the time to read my forum an PLEASE remember me tomorrow :)

      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!

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
