Recommended Posts

Hello Tess,

I haven't been around for a while. I quit coming to the site with my own disappointment. But, I finally am past the 50 pounds mark. I have been going up and down the same four pounds for two months. I was getting frustrated. I finally went and got a fill last week and lost a total of seven pounds. I am down a total of 53 pounds since march.

I hope you are doing well. thanks for all the support. your awesome.

I have a quick question, I got banded on June 25th. I had my first fill on 7/21 ans am scheduled for the next fill on Monday. I was losing great until the first fill and was put on solid food. I have only lost 6 pounds in the last month. Is it normal to slow down the weight loss right after the first fill or am I doing something wrong? I am never hungry and have a hard time eating anything.

Russ-Remember we are only supposed to lose 1-2 pounds a week, so that makes you right on target!!!!!! That is a wonderful weightloss!!!! Sounds to me you're doing great!!!!

      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!
