Bikram Yoga and the Lap Band



Recommended Posts

Last night I attended my very first yoga class, and on top of that it was bikram yoga!!!

Holy Moly, I've never been so hot and sweaty in my entire life.

Anyway, I was eating my dinner about half an hour after the class and managed to get a bit of a stuck episode.. At first I thought it was just me not chewing properly as tends to happen when I am beyond hungry. However, I continued to vomit until around midnight - even with no food left in the tank.

I am wondering if it is more the shock to the system with being in that intense heat, or even if the band could possibly tighten during such exercises??

I've woken up fine and have had no issues with eating or drinking anything today.

I'd love to know your thoughts or even if you can offer some advice about this??

I had a beginner hot yoga class but the temp was warm, not hot. But the reason I didn't keep going was my LOUD knees. We held poses for several minutes, and my cracking knees sounded like a machine gun. I couldn't help but burst out laughing uncontrollably. Since I am sure I was a disruption to the class, I dropped yoga and decided walking was more my thing.

      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.

      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!
