Yes it is frustrating but you lost 56 pounds so far and that is awesome! Hang in there! I know about stones because my husband was from Ireland and I've bern to Ireland 18 times.

I have been banded since 12/28/12 and just when I think I've hit the green zone my body still wants to eat. I'm very optimistic however despite some setbacks I've had with an unsupportive doctor. He feels I'm losing too slow but I'm still losing! So hang in there!. I still have 70 lbs to go but that's my personal goal. My doctor would be happy (my surgeon) if I lost just 50 lbs more. I am determined to hit my goal and maintain it when I get there.

I wish you well in your weight loss journey and take it one day at a time. I'm setting my goals of losing 10 lbs at a time otherwise it becomes overwhelming.

Been for a further fill I'm up to 12.40 in my 14cc band and my nurse tells me that I'm doing fine. She thinks its psychological hunger and that I need to drink more fluids so that my brain keeps registering its full. I tried it today and it worked !

PMS gets me. Doing great, not hungry, eating small amounts. Then BAM! I'm hungry and I crave milk. And I shake my head as I know it's PMS. Been that way since I was a teenager. And I can eat more. Not pre band more but just more than the week before. So I have some of what I crave and spend a lil extra time on my bike.

      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'. ???

        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!
