Ive been a member since November.. and i'm happy to say.. I'm getting banded on the 19th of Jan. Have alot of nerves.. not about surgery.. about afterwards...i dont have my hubbys support in this... so its even harder on my mental state. So I look forward to reading as I have been the past few months and posting on my process. Good Luck to all & to me.

Hi Bronxie......it's tough to have to do this without spousal support. Good thing you can always turn to us online! Good luck, Bronxie!

Is he against it because he's worried about your health? Or for a less palatable reason? If it's your health, I can think of some stuff that might help. If it's for some other reason, well, then just don't let him hold you down! :thumbup:

Hi Monk.. He feels i should be able to do this on my own..and that I'm just looking for an easy way out. He is not very openminded on alot of things.. and we hardly agree on anything... and before you ask.. all i can say i was Young and Dumb... hahaha. I also think because i didnt need or ask his "approval" on this.. is why hes giving me a hard time.

I wont let him hold me down thats for sure.

Best of luck to you Michelle! Hopefully your hubby will come around and be more supportive, but you can do this. Let us know how your surgery goes.

I have no regrets. I love my band! :thumbup:

      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!
