Good morning again everyone! My prayers are with the next go-round of bandsters.

Wow, the days are just dwindling down. :w00t: Im so stoked I can't wait!

Well, I am not staying the night, however the price my surgeon charges includes a stay at the hotel down the road the night before my surgery and an overnight stay following my surgery. There will also be a nurse checking in on me. :lol:

I really like that part of the deal. I will be six hours from home so this really helps. I have family in DFW area though that I will stay with for the rest of the week before me and my hubby come back.

IM SO EXCITED :thumbup:

Hi all! I just wanted to hop on here really quick and say that everthing went good in surgery and I am doing really good. The only thing that has been a little bit of a challenge is remebering I am banded, the reason I say this is because I have been having head hunger, and will think out of habbit that I want something from Burger King or something. So yeah, that has been the hardest thing for me.

The gas was a little bad last night, but I would just get off my butt and walk. It wouldn't make it go away, but it would make it more manageable. Also, I have had some gas pain in my right shoulder today. I know that is weird becuase people often say they feel it in their left, maybe I am just a weirdo! :thumbup:

Well, that is about it for now. I wanted to let everyone know that got banded today that I was thinking about them and wish for a speedy recovery. :w00t:

TTYL, sorry if I didn't spell things right, but I am a little bit druged up and don't really care about that so much. :lol:

      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?
