I am a recovering Pepsi addict as well (diet pepsi in fact). I used to drink it every morning instead of cofee. I haven't had one since I started my pre-op diet. I sure do miss it. But with all the gas pains I'm having right now, I don't think I'll ever touch it again. Now I only have my carb addiction to deal with :myscared:. Good luck to you and your husband.

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery.

You've chosen an amazing clinic. I was banded on April 3, 2007 by Dr. Mumford and both he and Dr. Coburn and the nurses and staff were and have been terrific.

I went in on Friday for my first fill, 4cc's, and was more nervous then the day I went in for surgery. I told Tammy, the nurse, this and she told me to rest assure because there was nothing to worry about. We talked a little longer and then before I knew it, it was over.

Any time I've called or emailed the nurses they have called right back. After surgery Dr. Mumford followed up with a personal phone call twice and both times he was in no rush to hang up. He answered all my questions and made recommendations for a speedy recovery..the service truly is fantastic.

Good Luck and God Bless.

      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.

        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!
