:clap2: Hi Everyone! Am excited to find these great places to chat to others with a Lapband. I am a very new bandee - last Monday Feb 5th, so just coming up to 1 week for me! Am enjoying a "delicious" week of fluids - trying to be as creative as I can. Great to read all the positives from so many people on here. I look forward to popping in and hearing more. Also love the before/after piccies - so inspiring!

Cheers, Jude

Melbourne, Australia:)

Hiya Guys! Thanks all for your replies - much appreciated.

I was a little confused when I got on here and started a thread when probably I should've been just adding/ replying to others.

Did enjoy getting some replies - feeling really excited about my week old band - although still pretty uncomfy - but the kilos are starting to slowly disappear already which is very encouraging - at least a bonus for the liquid diet!

Cheers, Jude ;-)

      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!
