Down 100LBS 40LBS to go



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! My name is Tod Campbell and I had my surgury about 15 months ago. I have seen people on this site wondering if loosing a 100LBS is possible with the band. Well it is and I look forward to loosing my last 40 or so.:clap2:

Anyway, I just wanted to give some encouragment to all of you as I have expereinced simular issues, stalls in weight loss or no weight loss, and even weeks when it said I gained a few. Stay with it! The great thing about the band is it keeps you on track. If you have slow periods just rededicate yourself and 15 months or more will pass and you will start to look good. Believe it or not, it seems that people are just starting to notice I'm loosing weight. Can you believe it took 100lBS.

I'm recharged and focussed more than ever. I know I can loose the last 40lbs and so will you. icon7.gif

Congrats. You should be so proud of yourself. I often wonder if 100# is possible, but after reading some of the posts here...it is quite possible.

Wow! Thanks for your post. You give me hope that perhaps one day I might be a normal weight.

I've never been a normal weight for my age.

You've really given me hope!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!:thankyou:

      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!
