I had my seminar on May 14th and am going to my Primary Care Doctor to start my 6 month diet program tomorrow. I am so excited about eventually having lap-band surgery. My husband is so supportive and that makes all the difference in the world. I am looking forward to learning from all of you on the forum!:party:

How wonderful for you, and how great that your husband is supporting you. Mine is, too. He says he will do everything I do, even when I have to do the liquid diets! Silly guy!

Oh my dog! Bobbie!!!! Who knew the internet is really such a small world!

Congrats on getting started on this journey. It's definitely not easy, but it's sooooo worth it!

Hi Bobbie! I'm new here too! My seminar is scheduled for July (doc is going out of town or else I'd be in there next week). I've been researching the surgery for so many months that I'm just raring to get started! You gals are very lucky to have supportive husbands! While mine will support me with whatever I decide to do (duh! I'm having the surgery! LOL), he doesn't feel like I need it. He says that I'm perfect the way I am and he doesn't want me to change a thing. The issue is I don't like myself the way I am and if I don't change, I don't think I ever will, so that trumps how he feels LOL.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone and having the support I need from people that are going through the same thing!

Hi Bobbie, I'm new too. I start my 6 month diet tomorrow also. I'm going to see if they will let me do the 3 month diet and 3 month of curves so I wont have to wait so long. Nice to meet you and good luck. Judy

      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!
