Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I am new here. I was banded on october 22. To date I have lost 25lbs. I wanted to know if this was an average weight loss ? I did not have to start a liquid diet until the day before. I am very happy with it so far just thought I should be losing more ? Would appreciate anyones feedback , thanks .:(

25 Pounds in 7 weeks in awesome. I am 10 weeks out and am only down 22 pounds. I know we all want to be losing faster than we are, but at least it is coming off. Keep up the good work.

Katieanne,

I was banded on 10/13 (8 weeks ago) and I'm down 22 pounds. Wish it were more, and I think I'm finally breaking through a little weight stand still, but I'm still very happy!

Congrats, and keep up the good work!

katieanne-- I didn't have to do liquids until 2 days before as well. I was banded about a month before you and have lost 13-15 lbs (varies daily).

You're doing GREAT!! 22 lbs way over 1-2 lbs a week-- Don't worry about what other people are losing-- We're all different. If you're happy that is all that matters! :(

hey Julie thanks for your reply. I guess I am being impatient. My sister was banded last november and is down 80lbs. I wanted to ask you how do you get that ticker on your site ? I was banded oct 22 2008 , dr jordan garrison , have had no fills yet . How do you get your fills ? My doctor does them in the hospital then wants to do a upper GI with barium so he can see what kind of restriction there is . he says that takes the guess work out of how tight or loose it is. Look foward to hearing from you.

      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?
