If it makes you feel any better, I think the more weight you have to lose, the quicker it comes off...with you having not too much to lose, it might take a bit longer. ((hug))

How are you feeling? feeling pretty good. Still have some wond issues from a large hematoma from my blood thinners. I can eat just about anything. I'm thinking about not getting a fill if I continue to lose and feel full like I do now. Not ddue for a fill until last of May so we will see if my satiety holds.

This is the best thing I have ever done.

Weight Loss to date: 23 lbs.:smile2:

How Am I Feeling? I have been having a rough time adjusting to life with the band. I have not experienced more energy yet but I'm looking forward to that day. I have been having a lot of chest/abdominal pain from gas (I think). I just bought some GasX today and I'm hoping that will help.

      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.

        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.
