Lap Band - No Tobacco - 3 Root Canals



Recommended Posts

This year has been great so far........ I had my lap band on the 10th

and things have been going well. I have also quit dipping... that is

a little harder, but getting throught it...

And oh yeah last Friday I had three root canals and Dang! This has been

a tough year so far!

My mini goal for weight is 300 by the end of March. My goal for dipping is to stay stopped! And my goal for my root canals.... is never have another one EVER!!

Those are good goals and it sounds like you are doing fine. I just ask for gas at the dentist and I love every minute of it...no kidding! That stuff is awesome!

Good for you!

2007 was my "Start to get healthy and take care of myself" year.

I got my band and 2 root canals I've been putting off forever!! I also started taking Vitamins and exercising. It feels great! I've even upped my 401K deductions because now I feel like I'm going to live a much longer life :biggrin:

      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.

      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!
