Hi,

I feel what you are going through. I also am I self pay and I am going to be banded next month. First off, I don't think you offended anyone. They just probably didn't feel they could help you. Second, I probably can't help either, but I have thought your thoughts to a degree. I want to lose 90 lbs. All my life I could diet and lose 50, then gain it back over the next several years. But, 1 year ago I dieted and ate right and exercised like crazy and didn't lose a pound. I am looking at this like it is another tool that will help me overcome some barriers and then help me keep it off when I reach my goal. How many times have you lost weight and then gained it back? Sure you can still do that with the band, but the reminder not to slip up will be there and that will help you stay stronger and on track. Losing weight can be the easy part, keeping it off is what counts though. Hope this helped a little.

  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?
