I was taken with your signature line about being a proud member of the ABC and I put one in my signature line as well. Thanks for the idea.

I've updated my ticker. Five more pounds to go until my next mini-goal reward. Plus, I know have less than 100 lbs. to lose.

p.s. I stole the ABC member line too!

Okay well I couldn't resist the scale till Monday so here's my update. Had my second fill on Friday and I'm down 23.8 pounds. (I guess we can say 24 if you're not using tenths,:P )

Hey y'all

I'm checking in. I have to update my ticker. I gained 5 lbs.:faint: very upset with myself. I"ve scheduled another fill for next Wednesday (11th.) so maybe I can get back on track. I'm thinking of going ahead and purchasing a bike so I can have another way of getting in some exercise. I feel like I need to do something drastic to make my Jan.1 mini-goal. I just can't seem to make it to 230.

Kutia,

I feel ya girl! This was my first week of all solid food and in no time at all, 4 lbs came right back. I'm telling myself this is not surprising, but I also feel almost no restriction and the portion sizes are creeping up. I've scheduled my first fill for Oct. 19. Water aerobics class -- here I come!

August 15. Down 23 pounds. Had my first fill today. 2cc in an 11 cc band. I think my band doc said he uses the Vanguard bands, so I think those are 11cc. Not positive though.

Thanks Faybie, you rock!

      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!
