P.S. I'm in Onederland



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I miss you all - have been very busy at work and at home. Things with me are good though- I have good restriction, am not too hungry too often, am enjoying eating a lot of vegetables though getting my Protein in is a bit challenging. Moving away from a life dominated by food has also brought emotional and spiritual growth, and I'm grateful for that. My thoughts are with Sades and Shortgal - two brave, strong women, there. I hope to be able to be on line and in touch more regularly soon. All the best,

Bandpal

p.s. I almost forgot - I weighed in at 197.89 this morning, so I've made it to Onederland!

Way to go Bandpal! :party: It's a great feeling to hit certain goals.

Thanks very much for your kind words. It's been almost 4 days since being rebanded and so far so good.

How is your wife doing now? Look forward to seeing you on here more often.

      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!
