Hi! It's been 100 days since my surgery date! I've posted a recap of the days and progress photos on my blog:
http://banderland.weebly.com/100-days-of-lap-band.html

I was hoping to be able to post that I lost a total of 50 lbs pre- and post-, but it's not meant to be! I have plateaued at 49 lbs for a week now!!! I'll take the good with the bad though. Lap-Band has been great to me.

What a great blog! Seriously. Loved reading through your journey. I am so happy for you! Congratulations on all and happy bike riding. Happy everything. So wonderful to reclaim life like this. I also really hovered at the 49 down and wondered if it was psychological or something as it was also aligning for me with the whole Onederland thing. Now I think it was just my body's need to stabilize a little after that almost fifty loss. When it finally went, I lost a pound a day for five days. Whoosh. It is all very exciting.

Thanks for the encouragement! I am happy to read your comment about my body stabilizing. It's a little discouraging to plateau, but I guess it's all part of the journey!

      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.

      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!
