Hi and how are you doing? Have you had your surgery yet and if so did it go well? I am going to West Columbia for a seminar on April 7 to get the scoop on Lap Band surgery. I have not selected a surgeon yet. What can you tell me about your surgeon and can you give me his phone number and office address? Please let me know how you are doing?

Hi! I am doing MUCH better now that I finally finished the meds! I ahve not had surgery yet, but am meeting the surgeon next week, so a date can't be too far behind that! Are you going to Lexington Medical? I considered there, but was already familiar/comfortable with Dr. Tribble at the Weight Management Center, so opted for there. Both he and Dr. Prickett (the other bariatric surgeon in the practice) are wonderful. Actually, I haven't met anyone in their whole office I didn't like and enjoy talking to. Their office is on Laurel St. in the same building as Surgical Associates of SC. Surgery is done at Baptist. I will message you with their other info. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

  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.

    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!
