I just wanted to say Hi. I have been reading your posts for a while. I was banded April 26, 2007 in Mexico. So far I have lost 85 pounds...with a lot more to go :eek: I am happy with my success so far and have not really had any problems. Still trying to learn to take those small bites and chew....which doesnt always happen. I am looking forward to posting and getting to know all of you. As soon as I can figure out the ticker thing I will add it.

Wowiee, Shannon!!! 85#?? That's amazing!! Way da go girl! Glad you've joined us. There can never be enough Violets!!

I'm on my way to church. Didn't lose anything when I weighed in, but I still have 2 days til Christmas. I'm gonna lose those 3# if I have to chop off an arm to do it!! Well, maybe not quite that drastic. But those 3# ARE going to be gone soon!!

Everyone have a great day. Catch you all after church.

TTFN.......

      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!
