I have recommitted



Recommended Posts

Just start over. I know it's so much easier said than done but it can be done. I saw my new surgeon on Tuesday and I'm already back down 5 lbs.

I know what it is to be frustrated and to eat out of stress and emotion.

Your not alone. There is a lot of help here that's why I came back. Some can be a little harsh. I was on the site earlier this morning and witnessed an e fight but most are very helpful. And ready to give sound advice to help.

Don't give up just go back for your fill, I was dreading it and embarrassed and ashamed but I bit the bullet and back on the losing track. You can do it.

You lost 140 lbs, you can do it again.

I am so with you and everyone posting. I'm trying to recommit myself. I have had a lot go on in the last 2 1/2 yrs, and because of it I have gained major. I can't get into the clothes that I worked so hard to get into. I am planning to schedule an appt with my new surgeon to get a fill. The last time I was checked my port was good, so I know its me. That's a hard pill to swallow, but acceptance is the key to moving forward. So that's where I am. I'm trying to get back on my workout schedule also. I swam today and it felt great. I'm in Zumba and Pilates. This weight will leave forever!

It's sort of modified version of sleeve..no cutting or removal. The fold the stomach in on itself and stitch it. I had it and not in the green but am doing great. Some have band and plication and never any fills

So when did you have it? Was it apart of your initial surgery? Or did you go back and add this?

      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.

        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!
