I everyone,

Love this site! I can't believe how much information is available.

I was banded on 01/31/07 and life has been very good. I had a very easy surgery and recovery was easy. I was doing wash the very next day :think.

I love reading everyone posts and I would like to know how people get the pretty scale (i think that is what u call it) at the bottom of the posts showing weight loss????

Looking forward to chatting with everyone.

Jane

Hi Jane!!

Welcome to bandland and to LBT!! Come over and say Hi at the NJ thread---there are actually a few from NJ there!!! They welcomed me and several others who are nowhere near Jersey!!! A GREAT group!!!

The scale at the bottom is called a ticker---there is a thread dedicated to putting one on---if you can't find it let me know and I will PM you with a walk through of how to do it.

Once again---welcome!!

Goodluck with surgery. I had no problems. Get moving as soon as possible.

I want to loose 110 pds total. I have lost 20 and have a long way to go.

I found the tickler @ thetickerfactory.com but I am not sure how to put at the bottom of my posts/name.

Good luck.

Jane

The tickers can be created at TickerFactory.com

And yes - there are several of us who live all over the place and congregate in the New Jersey Forum.

Come visit us in the TGIF thread... (Thank God it's February)

Or stop in for the March thread - somebody will start that up tomorrow.

Welcome!

      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!
