Laura,

Congrats on your weight loss and LapBand!!! Happy to hear the strap isn't bugging you as much. I don't even know I'm wearing mine anymore, but at first it was always slipping and I even got a painful blister the first day I wore it.

I'm being banded in a few weeks, June 24th! Still waiting in that pesky insurance approval. Its cutting close and making me nervous...so we may have to wait a bit, who knows. Hopefully not. Its my PCP, she wants to talk to me before she sends her letter and not "do this on a whim"....I talked to her in January about it and again in March, she was not supportive but agreed that if I wanted it I should do it. Not only that I've been to so many Dr appointments, support groups, psych consult, nutritionist appointments...its frustrating to think I would be doing this "on a whim" and be lectures by a 120 pound woman on nutrition as if she can understand. She can't get me in until next week...so I'm worried it won't be in time.

Sorry if thats TMI.

Lori

Lori,

Have you talked to your lapband office about your late appt? Maybe they can work with you to keep on schedule. I was a self pay so I didn't have to jump through any hoops. Dr Kirshenbaum in Denver did my consults over the phone. And the nutritionist did as well. It was a problem free, easy process. Of course it cost me $10,000. But it was well worth it. I hope things start to roll easier for you. Good luck.

Okay, I'm having a minor problem with my bodybugg and was wondering if anyone else had this happen. Usually when I take my bodybugg off (for like 30 minutes or whatever) then put it back on, later when I upload my calories burned, it usually tells me that I wasn't wearing the bodybugg for X amount of time and ask me if I was inactive or if I burned the same amount as a previous day. Well, it hasn't even been noticing when I'm not wearing it. The box doesn't pop up anymore. Anyone else had this problem?

If you go swimming and take your bugg of is there a way to log that as calories burned?

Georgia girl, that has only happend when I've had it off for more than 30 mins also. If it doesnt pop up that means it is still calculating your calories burned.

      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!
