I also had my band on 3/27! How exciting! How are you doing now? where are you at with your fills?? I have been kinda depressed, I have only lost 20 pounds so far, but am finally starting to feel restricted. I would love to stay in touch and to be able to do this together! my email is tekker5@hotmail.com thanks!!!

I have been a little bummed lately too as I have only lost 17lbs. But I had only one fill. I just had my second fill and I am noticing a HUGE difference in my ability to eat. I think he filled me to 6cc or 6.5cc. Plus my doctor says that I am probably building muscle since I am consistently working out 3 days a week. I really want to be successful this. For awhile I was struggling with eating the right stuff too. I am getting much better with my choices so I think as that goes on I will lose more too. My husband was banded also and I get jealous because he has lost 50+ pounds already. Feel free to email me anytime also. emw4066@hotmail.com.

      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?

        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.
