I am happy to say that my log in name is true!! I got my band yesterday. It went so well, I couldnt have asked for it to be any better. I had surgery at 7:30am , was up walking the halls by 10:30 and homein my own bed by 2pm.

Today I am a bit sore but most of the pain is in the shoulders from gas. Also my throat hurts because of the tube during surgery.

After 8 days of clear liquid diet, the pureed lentil Soup I just had for dinner was amazing!!!

Glad to see so many others are having great surgery stories this week too. We are all strong and will do great!!!:thumbup:

Congrats to u! Your surgery did go very well. I was banded on the 16th and I stayed one night in the hospital. When I woke up I was delirious. LOL

The gas was really bad for me but it has gotten much better. I am proud of the weight loss so far and am anxiously looking forward to mushies. We are on our way!: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.

        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!
