I am excited, and nervous, and scared, all rolled into one. I am so glad that we have each other on this journey...I don't know if I would have been brave enough to do this on my own. :thumbup: Thanks everyone, tonya.

I'm feeling all the same things you are Tanya. (Thankfully it's mainly excitement...we'll see how I am two weeks from today when it's the night before my surgery.)

It's hard to believe that there are already a few that are going to be banded in just a few hours! YAY!

May is the most beautiful month, at least here in New England, in May all the trees blossom with their flowers and the grass starts growing again and it stops raining!!!! Its a time of re-birth, for mother nature, and for all of us!!!!!!

I'm so excited!!!!!

Allison you have me renewed again.. I get my band the 26th of May .. I was getting a little worried and excited and all in between .. When you said you were cleaning your room .I thought YES YES ..Out with the old and only the new will do ... You have the best attitude .. Keep us posted .. Our new way of life is going to be the absolute best ... Start making lists .I have a million of them everywhere.. Oh and don't forget GAS X strips to your list .. We are all so blessed to have this band to help us ... I can't even begin to imagine yet ... When my Dr said he wouldn't let me go below 128.. I laughed to myself and thought is he talking to me???? WOW...

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
