LMFAO I said why dont I just send ya my baby pics and all the school pics or better yet call my Momma .......Well Im not really ranting ...or raveing just making fun out of some of the things they put you thru ...anyway a couple of friends of mine have had this done so I decided to give it a whirl ... Thanks for listen'in and its good to meet ya'll ( yeah... I'm from the South ) ha ha . When I get a date set I'll post it .

Harley,

I'm also in the Insurance/Pre-op testing phase. In fact, I'm two insurance carriers down and one to go (or possibly four if I decide to change jobs. LOL.

Welcome aboard. You'll find that LBT can be quite addictive at times addictive. And, just when you think you've learned all you can about lapband (or life for that matter), you'll find something interesting and new to lurk or join in on.

      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!
