I'm new at this.



Recommended Posts

I've never joined a forum of any kind before. I'm just a couple of months from my lapband surgery and I'm trying to give myself a headstart by plugging in with support and searching the web for knowledge and healthy tips. I especially, want to plug in with christian gals who are going down the same path too. So, I hope to meet more of you on this thread.

With Christ as our commonality.

Good day Christian Sister Bandsters! I am new at this also, am going to surgeon appt the 16th of this month. Would enjoy fellowship, prayers and encouragement times with you all, also. I enjoy chatting and lifting up my sisters, and thought this would be the place! Am believing for a good surgery, lil pain and gas, and the wisdom how to use this tool as well to decrease as Jesus increases in my life!

      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!
