It's been a tough 35 lbs, and I'm still slowly losing, but I'm definately looking forward to my second fill.

29 pounds today and need to get another fill. I've only had one so far, and starting to get a bit hungry between meals. Guess I should get it done before I try to imitate the T-Giving Day Bird!

29 pounds, wow... that just feels good to type. Even better when it's 30 something!

I was banded on August 16 and have lost a total of 32.5 lbs. I had my first fill on Oct. 2 (4.5 cc in a 10 cc band). I have stalled out, having lost only about 6.5 lbs since that fill. I'm going in for a checkup/fill tomorrow, so hopefully things will pick up!

50lbs and it shold be more. My weight keeps bouncing up and down. Only 11 more to make my Christmas goal. I am starting to think it would just be easier to just not eat. My stomach is growling and moving around right now.

I was had my first fill today, Dr. Berths put 1.8cc in what I think is the smaller band, I kow Dr. Abkin didn't use the one that Dr. Bertha always uses, I was still loosing but I am so worried about the holidays I thought I would nip my fear in the bud. I started out at 225 and I am now 183 so far so good. keep me posted on all of you, work is crazy so I am on much less than before thanks for your loving support all of you. I have a new pic I am going to up load..

      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!
