I love watching everyone's progress, it's really exciting.

I've not felt hungry for the last few days, but not due my first fill for weeks, so there can't be any restriction - can there? I

'm eating solids with no problem, but after a small banana or half a cup of Soup, I just don't fancy any more and stop - is this just my head - or am I really feeling the result of the band?

I've lost nearly 3 kilos (6lbs) in 2 weeks.

Yes, we are home of the KU Jayhawks. It's a beautiful place to live. Small town but not too small! We love it.

I'm 4 days post fill and I feel great. I really think this could be my sweet spot. Is that possible with being only 8 weeks from surgery?

You could be there already, but you might wait to decide for a couple weeks. A lot can happen in that two weeks including getting even tighter. Hope it is perfect !!!!

I finally got rebanded a little while ago and hope to start losing weight soon. Since I dont have anything in my band right now I can eat anything and everything and never feel full after the portions I should be eating.... at least I am not gaining.

Gotta stay positive :cursing: Hope everyone else is doing good.

      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!
