My doc submitted my paper work for banding this past week. I am hopeful I get approved. He doesn't think it should be an issue but I am weary. I am hoping for the best! If so I am scheduled to be banded the day before Turkey Day! I say no time like the present! Congrats to all with their approvals and dates. :) Looking forward to joining you!!

Yep we will be bandies!!! So its only people with major weight loss. Whew I was so stressed. How do I get the chart?

Hi there, I meant a chart of all the people being banded around the same time -- as for the tickers, those are under our profile, may have to be at a regular computer to find.....edit profile? Tickers? So glad for your surgery date -- we have healthy times ahead. Yippee!

As it stands right now, I have my EGD on Oct. 18th. I will start my pre-op liquid diet on the 25th and then my surgery is scheduled for Nov. 15th, as long as there are no issues with the insurance approval. The surgeon's office doesn't think there will be any issues with getting it approved and says my insurance is pretty easy to work with so I'm hoping they're right about that.

      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!
