Hi, I'm copying Indiogirl and offering to Help



Recommended Posts

I read Idiogirl's thread and thought I would jump in and offer to help anyone too. Unlike Indiogirl, I am a slow loser so I can certainly emphasize with those of you who are frustrated with slow weightloss.

So, let me give a breif history of myself.

I love chocolate, I was banded January 18, 2007 after years and years of yo yo dieting. I love chocolate, All diets did work for me, I love chocolate, but they were just a diet, the 2nd I ended "The Diet", all my weight came back, and then some (did I mention I love chocolate).

So for all you who say they are sweet eater, meet your partner.

I was so successful the first 6 months, matter of fact, thats when I lost most of my weight. But the 12 months following that, not so good. Well, I've been back for about 2 months now, and the weight is coming off again. My mind is back and I think I can offer helpful suggestions to those who "fell of the wagon and need to get back on". Or maybe those who are struggling with head hunger.

How about those who are struggling to get the perfect fill - I'm on fill #11 and I do know how frustrating it is.

So, any questions, comments, whatever, fire away.

      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.

      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!
