Are you writing down your calories? Thats what i do , that way i know when i need to quit for the day.I eat more than what some do, about 1500 to 1600 a day. I am losing though so i`m happy with that. I go to the gym five times a week so that helps. Donna

I have 9cc in my 10 band and feel like I could eat a lot more than I do. I just measure everything before I begin and stop once its all gone. The good thing is that once I stop I do feel satisfied. I havent had any problems with any foods and Im starting to get afraid that Im going to run out of room before I reach the elusive sweet spot.

We have someone in our local group that has almost 12cc;s in a 10cc band, so you have some room to go. I was thinking the same thing when they put 6 in for my first fill, but no problems so far....

I hope that's one day and not one meal. Just kidding.... I set out only what I'm going to eat like Monica does. For me, the full feeling doesn't hit me over the head and say stop. I try not to have more food in front of me than I should eat, cause I probably would.

I've got 9.85 in mine. They said they would go over 10 if needed. Guess we've got tough tummies...

Good luck

Bruce

      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!
