Saw the post"I need to get back on track",,, it jumped out at me.. I had my surgery in 2006.. Did so good, lost 77 pounds... Felt so good, looked much better.. Maintained my new weight for years.. (Never got to my full goal weight of 175).. Job became almost unbearable , stress stress and more stress. While on vacation in Albuquerque. Working the balloon festival october 2012 thought was having a heart attack, finally found it was extreme acid reflux, band was too tight,( hadn't been tightened in 18 month) after 2 days in NM. Hospital, then follow up visits after returning home, was told to open up band totally to let stomach and throat heal... Results, gained weight... I have got to get back on track .. I am calling tomorrow to start the process again.. I really would like to get into a support group that meets weekly, however my surgeon is in Denton and I live in Wylie now,.. Does anyone know of a weekly support group in Plano Texas

Hi just wanted to introduce myself to a fellow Texan. I live in Haslet, very close to Denton but not to Plano :) . Can't say I know of any support groups anywhere for that matter. Would love to find one somewhere, even if I had to drive a little. I am going to follow this post to see who post what. Good luck

      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.

      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!
