I was banded on Wed the 21st and came home on Thurs., but just didn't have the energy to get on the computer! I am recovering nicely, but just so darn tired with the lack of calories. How's everyone else doing? Tori--how are you???

Glad to hear you are doing well! When do you get to move to full liquid? Hopefully that will give you some more energy then.

Congratulations!!! So happy to hear everything went well for you!! I agree that you should give it a few days to let the anesthesia wear off. It took me about 3 days until I felt like it was out of my system. And don't forget- you still had surgery, you won't feel back to normal for a little bit. But every day you will feel a little better. Keep us posted as to how you are doing.

You're doing good! I was banded 08-04-09 and came home feeling tired and sleepy. I would move around a while, and nap a while. It's nice to know that others here went through the same stage as I, so it sounds like a normal stage. As the others have said, give it a few days and you'll feel stronger every passing day.src="http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/wz7PEQQ/weight.png" border="0" alt="" />

I am doing ok~! I think I am ready for mushies. ALthough we are allowed to have creamy lowfat Soups, cottage cheese ( i have never eaten that before) etc. I am tired of the shakes and sugary taste to them. I like more salty foods. I did grind up a small soft boiled egg almost like a deviled egg and i ate it fine. I shouldnt do this for 3 more days but wanted something different. I am losing about 2 lbs a day and i am only drinking about 1 shake a day so i felt like i needed something. i know i know bad me !!! How are you doing?

      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!
