Hello Marylanders



Recommended Posts

I was wondering if any of you were banded by Dr. Brody at GWU medical center. He was my surgeon and I would like to compare notes with some people that had similar experiences.

Thanks,

Jessica

Hi,

I am scheduled for my lap band on July 31 and Dr. Brody will be the surgeon. I will let you know how things went. I have met with him several times about questions I had and he sat down with me and answered all of them and I didn't feel rushed. I just hope things work out for me.

Hi,

Good luck with you upcoming surgery. Dr. Brody was very knowledgable about the surgery and really does take the time with his patients. He has always returned any of the calls I made to him within the same day. I am sure everything will go well and you will feel good soon.

Take Care,

Jessica

      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!
