Isn't It Awsome...



Recommended Posts

I have struggled with my weight all my life. Before I got pregnant I was going to the gym and killing myself eating healthy food while others around me were eating Krispy Kremes. The weight lost was almost non-existant. I got my band on 8/9/07, a week later I was exercising. For the first time in my life I could see a weight loss difference after exercising. Man that was AWSOME!!!!! It made me feel so good, it made me want to go exercise just so I could jump on the scale and see it working. My weight loss is at a plateau and I am dying for my first fill, but I just wanted to share my excitement with the rest of you all. I can't wait for my fill so I can see those results again!! Thanks for listening. :whoo:

Back in january of this year, I decided to start yet another diet & exercise attempt to lose wight. I ate a small bowl of Cereal for Breakfast, a bowl of Soup for lunch and a small dinner. I worked out at the gym for an hour 3-4 times per week. After 3.5 weeks, I weighed my self: I had gained 3 pounds. WHAT?!?!?! That was one of my last straws that made me go for the band.

Now when I exercise I really see the difference, both in the scale and in my energy level. It is really amazing. Before, even when I lost weight, I didn't have more energy. With exercise, I really do. And it feels great.

Woo!

      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!
