Do you have a nickname for your lap band?



Recommended Posts

I was wondering do you have a nickname for your lap band. My friends think I should have one and I think this is a fun topic to post. So let's do a lap band roll call! :D

I don't have a nick name for mine, but my Dr. played along with my desire to pretend that my band is pink and covered in Coach "C's". :)

Audrey. She is named after the character in the musical "Little Shop of Horrors." Audrey had one line, "FEED ME!" and everytime I get a loud gurgle I say it is Audrey saying, "Feed me!" Then after a few ounces of food she said, "thanks that's enough STOP FEEDING ME!" For those of you who may not remember Audrey she was a man eating plant and had to be fed a person a day. OK, so I am a sick puppy!

      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!
