Stand Still or Still Loosing?



Recommended Posts

Thank you:smile2: I have a 10cc band and am filled to 5.6cc (on 9/15/08). I don't drink anything while eating - that hurts way too bad. I think I chew everything up enough...but what I may think is enough may not be. salad seems to be the easiest thing for me to eat. But I can't stop eating it...??? I never feel the full feeling like I should with that. I have heard that some things just go down easier...maybe that might be why?! I also have had 2 C-sections and really hate that I will have to have cosmetic work done later. Guess we are not as young as we think we should be huh? I don't want to be younger (don't want to do that all over again), but I sure would like to have my skin tones back!!! Thank you for the response...hopefully my fill will help with alot of these issues. Good luck, and thanks again! :)

I am at a standstill as well. I was banded on 8/18 and had a 3 cc fill 6 weeks later. I need to try to get another fill because today I ate an entire reuben before feeling full. I know that was not the best choice but as a paramedic on the road and not eating for 7 hours......

Really make an effort to eat your Proteins first. I find that Proteins fill me up much faster than anything else. salad just turns to mush and goes right on through.

      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!
