I know I am slow getting in on the August countdown...I am suppose to go to TJ on 25 Aug to be banded by Dr. Ortiz....I have NEVER had surgery of any kind...and as each day in August ticks by I wonder if I have lost my mind to put myself on a surgery table in Mexico for the sake of weight loss.....tell me that I am just nervous and that everyone freaks out at this point!!!! Anyone else scheduled for that day????? GULP!

MsButterKup23 and Kittykat2900, liberty2003 and liberty2003's sister,

Best wishes to you all and here's to speedy recovery for all.

Sisterp, don't worry you are not alone, this too will be my first surgery, and I am scared to death. Mine is 7 days away, so excited, and scared all the same. We will all get through this with the great help we get from each other.

Prayers to all,

Shelley

Margo,

I know this is rather late, but I am having surgery in Monterrey Mexico.

I want to thank you for being such a great good luck wisher to all of us Aug. bandsters. I don't make it to the boards everyday so I miss some, but I want every one to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

By the way has anyone heard from the ones that have already had their surgeries? Hope they are all doing well.

Here is to gettin er done,

Shelley

Shelley,

You know, you and I will be "band sisters" since we are both having surgery on August 17.....

I had my pre-op appointment with my surgeon today and all is great and I am ready to rock n' roll.

We will be miles apart, but not really!!!!

Good Luck in Mexico.

Hi guys, I am back after my surgery on the 1st!! I had a few post-op problems (general surgery problems not band problems) but now I am home and safe and feeling great. My wounds are healing nicely and I am eating mushy food, I am a bit more tired than usual and a little tender on the abdomen but apart from that I am really well. Thanks for all your prayers and well wishes. Good luck to all who have yet to be banded!!

      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!
