May '06 Bandsters - June Chat



Recommended Posts

Thanks for the reply OU! Maybe this will prompt some more replies!

Two years is coming up quickly. Lets get on here and catch up Maysters!!

I have reached the 100 pound goal, I've held steady for quite some time now. I started working with a personal trainer this January and have lost many inches! Neat to see and feel the muscles some of which I didn't realize I had! The big 50th B'day is this July too! Oh the fun!!

Got laid off from my job last month, bummer but that just pushes me into a new direction I think.

Will be getting a brand new Grandson within the next few days... at least my very pregnant Daughter in law hopes anyway. Update: She's having labor pains as I write to tonight may be the night! Yippeee!

Still working toward my degree, hoping to have that BBA by the end of the year.

Sure hope all are well and good on this fine day.

Congrats!!:)

You have done really well. You have a lot going on and are still maintaining. That is wonderful.

I reach goal weight in February 2007 and have maintained pretty well since. By pretty well, I am about 25 pounds over where I said I wouldn't exceed, but am working to get that back off now. I am about 2 months post op from Tummy Tuck. The second best thing I have done for myself besides the band. It did wonders for my self esteem I have a link in my signature for pics. Everything else is going well.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
