Leona06, In your signature you have 270/204!!!/135, is my interpretation that you have gone from 270 down to 135 correct??? If so, WOW and MAJOR Congrats are in order. Please tell me what you did. I am not banded yet, however, I am STRONGLY considering it. Do you think choosing the RIGHT Dr. plays an important role in this type of success? You are truely an inspiration. How long did it take you to reach that 204 and then 135 weight? I am almost 280 at 5'3' and would love to have the same results. What didn't you like the most after surgery? How are you managing to maintain? I go to a seminar on this Saturday. I'm compiling a list of questions to ask; do you have any important ones that are a must ask? Thanks!

      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!
