Knocking On The Door Of The 200's Lbs..open-Open-Open



Recommended Posts

Just went to the Dr for a fill and am knocking on the door of 200's. I'm at 311..yay... I haven't seen that in about 20 years....How to I keep up my momentum during the holidays? I'm starting to snack more often...UGH! :P

Sounds like you're doing great!! :D Don't let all the holiday temptations undo all your hard work. Something that's been helping me is eating it if I *really* want it (I actually stop and think before eating, and don't just mindlessly grab it), staying honest and recording the calories towards my daily allowance, and moving on! You've got this!! 200's here you come!!!!!

Ha, good one! I was just reading about fierceness in another post. Let's be fierce. Glad you got your fill -- goal is to wait the allotted time and note whether hunger has returned. Snacking will not give you the info you need. I am trying for 4-5 hours and since I am hungry again earlier than that I know I need another fill, not a snack. I figure I'm not starving as my body has plenty to snack on in the storage departments. Still figuring this thing out but so relieved to have my band. Roar your way into the 200s this holiday season -- you can do it!

I can't wait to be in your position! It's been 5 or 6 years since I've been in the 200s myself. Im current at 336 down from 369. I agree: break the damn door down! Don't knock! :)

      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!
