So, I'm new, and I'm saying hi! So, HI!

Anyways, I've been lurking around for awhile and figured it was probably time to introduce myself. I've been considering lapband for awhile now. I'm still not 100% decided, but I'm making an appt to see my GP to disscuss the opition. If I go through with it I'll be using the same surgeon my mom is going to for gastric (7/28), as I've already met her and she comes highly reccomended.

Anyways, thats my lil' intro 'bout me!

Hi Rockout

This is a great website, i'm sure you'll find it a huge help. before I was banded I spent hours and hours reading all the posts etc and also asking people a million questions. People are very friendly and willing to help so ask as much as you can, it will help you reach the right decision for you.

Good luck!

Julia

      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?
