Wow JTag! I can't believe they are saying that because everybody loses so differant. I called my nurse to double check on that and he said that as long as I keep to it they don't care how much I lose before surgery. I gained about 8 pounds though after I saw him so I have dropped about 4 which puts me at 280 but when I saw him I was 276 so I am hoping to drop another 10 pounds to at least be under 276.

Do those Water pills help too??

Hello everyone...haven't been on here in a while but I hope those of you who have crossed over to Bandland are doing good!

Yeah, my doc is ULTRA conservative...which is good, I'm not radical by any stretch of the imagination so it's really pushed me to get serious. AND I've been REALLY good and I hit 20 lbs this morning! With 4 days to go and I will be on liquids Tues/Wed and get "cleaned out" Wed too so I'm feeling much better about making my required weight loss. Plus I just advanced how much closer I am to being in onederland !!!!! YAHOO!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

      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!
