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!

      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.

      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!
