MargieM-- If I don't like the band, I will have it removed. It is worth trying as so many people on this site seem to like their band.

:welldoneclap: I know what you are saying but my doc also said that it is harder to put "in" the band than take it out...not that it can't be done...so, be sure you are ready before so that you don't Have to remove the band......

Just my thoughts! :Banane53: My date 5/28 is fast approaching!!! Yea!!:Banane44:

Wow I am the same weight and height as you. I went in for my consult already and they were telling me the same thing. I have just dveloped High Blood Pressure and the are watching me for that before I start taking medicine. But I can lose and then regain. I'm waiting on apporoval right now all paperwork has been sent in. I have started again trying to lose and exercisng. I said the same thing to my husband this weekend that maybe I should just try on my own since I havn't really been doing anythig the last few months. I have lost 6 pound this week and I keep saying to myself yes just keep trying this on your own. I have been going back and forth. But I wonder if I get a call saying I'm approved will I feel the same way.

Any way keep in touch and let us know what you deceide

      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!
