Before and After Lap Band Surgery - PICTURES ONLY



Recommended Posts

Telly - thank you for your kind words - I agree lusingjusme is such an awe inspiring inspiration. I read her online journal too, and I read the disclaimer. lol.

The first pic is my night before surgery, the 2nd pic is my 3 mos post op. I was recently release to start lifting weights, so I'm going at it with all my energy & strength. I can't wait to see my 4 month & 5 month pic, I expect to see major changes!

Okay well since it is my 3 month bandiversary I figured I would post some pics. I think the side ones show it the best.

First pics are preop and the second ones are today.

These are my before and after pics. I never took full body shots... But I am sure you can tell how big I was from the top pic alone. I also want to mention that i'm almost 5'10.. And I haven't been able to wear those jean capri's in the bottom pic for YEARS and YEARS.

      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!
