Never gonna be fat again!!!!



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

My name is Marlynn and I am 28 yrs and going to be banded in Monterrey, Mexico on June 7th!!! I am SO excited...I get to break free from the fat shell I've been bonded to most my life! I sent off all of my passport information yesterday, making travel arrangements today, and paying full balance in 3 more days! Luckily I have a husband who would do most anything for me, and has given me the money to do this without having to finance anything...thank God. Otherwise, I'd be waiting for school loans to be paid off. Anyway, congratulations to all that have had this procedure, and good luck to the ones going to have it done! I look forward to hearing from some of you.

I had it expedited, and they told me it should only take 3 weeks which would put it here by May 29th or 30th. Pray it gets here by then....it would just kill me to have to put this off.

You should be fine then! I was concerned that you sumbitted via "snail mail". I understand that pass ports are taking up to 12 weeks to receive via regular processing, due to the new pass port requirements. Good thinking to have it rushed!! :)

I am getting banded in Montery, MX. That is such a great idea to rush the passport. I am working on my application now. Which doctor are you using? I think I will be banded towards the end of June. Good Luck- :D

      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!
