My PA hit the port the first try. I didnt feel a thing! Easy as cake and i was really nervous about it hurting alot. You will do great keep me posted!</p>

I received 1.2 cc's in my band during my 1st fill. I'm feeling great. It was easy, painless.. kind of a strange feeling when you drink and can't swallow and they have to remove some. Looking forward to losing like crazy!

:whoo:

My doctor will not fill until 6 weeks after surgery. I had mine on June 29, so I am still waiting for a fill. I have lost about 20 pounds from pre & post surgery liquids and now the mush food.

Thanks,

Cathy

I had my first fill yesterday. The doctor put 2cc's in at surgery and an additional 2cc's for the fill....4cc's total now. I have a 10cc AP small band.

The procedure was very easy and totally painfree!

      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!
