a lot can happen in a month

I got banded on May 30th and what a wild journey. The first two days was painful but on day three I was walking and exercising and pretty shocked at how I felt. On the day of surgery I weighed 255 and 30 days later I got on the scale this morning and weighed 220. I'm in shock. I'm happy and feeling great. My son tells me that he is proud of me which I'm not use to.

I had my first fill and up to 3.5 ccs and I was so nervous for nothing. I catch myself wanting to eat when I'm not hungry and that will be my hardest hurdle. But I'm still loving life right now. I have no regrets.

Oh My Gosh I am soooooo glad you said you are catching yourself wanting to eat when you don't feel hungry. Isn't that an awesome feeling. Now it is easy to not eat when we aren't hungry. The band takes that unnecessary hunger away and I am so glad you are feeling that wonderful reward. And wow down 35 pounds is fantastic.

      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!
