Hiya everyone!

I was SO happy when i found this site! So many other people who i could chat to about lap band surgery!

I had my band fitted on Wednesday so as you can imagine i am dying to chat to someone and share stories!

Just to let you know more about me, my name is Olivia, i'm 24 from London. I arranged my surgery with Transform and Professor Hakim performed my surgery.

I would be happy to hear from anyone who wants to share stories or ask me anything etc... Feel free to contact me!

Hope to talk to you soon!

Liv

Hi Liv.

Congratulations on your banding and welcome to LBT. I hope you had an easy time with your surgery and that your recovery is going smoothly. I've only been banded three months but I am thrilled with it so far. I go for my second fill on Wednesday, July 12th. I went shopping recently and bought new clothes 2 and 3 sizes smaller than what I was presently wearing. Who would of thought?!?!

      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!
