OMG!!!! This morning were getting ready to go to the stock show, so I was trying to decide which jeans to put on when I ran across my size 16 Lee's. I haven't been able to wear them in almost 2 years, but this morning they slid right on with no problems!!! I can't believe I'm finally seeing a result from having this lapband!!!

That's wonderful! All of my jeans are big around the legs, but everything is still tight in the tummy area. Maybe I'm still swollen, LOL. OR...maybe it's the saline gone awry from my fill or I may just need to exercise.

I'm with you Nana. Everything I've lost has been my behind/hip area and legs. I do see a waist these days, but my abdominal area just hangs on. ;) This is kind of disappointing because even though I've lost so much in the lower area. I haven't been able to move down that much in clothes that have waistbands, like jeans. :D

      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!
