Before and After Lap Band Surgery - PICTURES ONLY



Recommended Posts

I've lost close to 60 pounds and visually don't see much of a difference in these pics. However, mentally, I realize I'm able to wear smaller sizes and can get around a lot better so know I am making slow but sure progress!

Even though I haven't dropped much weight in the past month and a half, I still wanted to share some updated photos with everyone. These "after" pictures were taken a few moments ago.

BEFORE @ 274 lbs.

There's Wonderwoman! I told you that you reminded me of her. Gorgeous Tricia - Long black hair, blue eyes and yes, nice colored/dark tanned skin ...

I look at the old you and I can't make myself see that any of the old you even belonged to you.

I love ya Tricia_K and again thank you for giving me continued support and counter motivation.

      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!
