CAPS FOR SPEED, PUNCTUATION FOR YELLING....

MY FIRST SURGERY WAS A LAP-BAND, IN 2012, BY A DOC WITH A "WHO GIVES A SHIT" SMILE, AND A TON OF DOUBLE TALK ABOUT MY POST-OP INFECTION, AND DISTENTION - WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE A HERNIA, YET TO BE REPAIRED - MY FILL PORT FLIPPED, TWICE - THERE'S NOTHING MORE SOBERING, THAN WATCHING YOUR DOCTOR STICK THAT NEEDLE INTO YOUR ABDOMEN, AND IT BENDS - I WENT FROM 426LBS, TO 350LBS, TO 396LBS - FROM DAY-1, I HAD NO INTAKE RESTRICTION.....

2014, I HAD MY CONSULT FOR BAND REMOVAL, AND THE GASTRIC SLEEVE REVISION; I GOT DOWN TO 350LBS, USING A NUTRIBULLET, AND WALKING - 02/2015, AT 324LBS, I HAD MY SURGERY, GOT DOWN TO 288LBS, AND PLATEAUED - KNEE AND BACK ISSUES HAMPERED EXERCISE, AND "JUSTIFYING" POOR INTAKE CHOICES HAS ME CURRENTLY AT 290LBS....

I'M PAST BEATING MYSELF UP, AND HAVE EMBARKED ON A PATH OF EXERCISE AND PROPER EATING..... STAY TUNED!!!!

I also had surgery at 324! Mine was 11/18/15 and I'm down 57.5 lbs. I still have another 100 to go. Please don't give up! Start over with your basic rules. You can do this!

      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?
