Hi! I was banded on 3-25-08 and have lost 30 lbs.. I feel I should have lost more by this time, but my night time snacking is messing me up. I have vowed to myself to get serious and knock off the night eating. How are you feeling about your weight loss so far? I am not totally disappointed cuz I can't remember the last time I was able to lose 30 lbs.

I meant I'm still going through the process of testing and getting approved. I just like to see how people like the band because I'm excited and nervous about doing it. I had a client (I'm a hairstylist) who had it done and she lost 60lbs. in 2 years. She was getting frustrated but she wasn't following the rules (she thought it was suppose to be magic not a tool). I hadn't seen her for 3 mos. and she's down 95lbs.(35 lbs. in 3 mos.) in all. She said she just got serious got a fill and starting using it like it was meant to be used. You really have to have self control it sounds like OIY!!!!

      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.

      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!
