So its very easy to drift back into old habits.

My band is only 1/2 way full due to extensive reflux problems if I fill it anymore.

I have gained about 12lbs back in 4months and I am FLIPPING out. I have NO RESTRICTION! It sux!

Just wondering if anyone else was having any probs. I hope everyone has enjoyed their holidays!

I NEED to get my butt to support group...when is the next meeting??!!!

I got you beat!! I got down to 245 and gained 20 back. I weigh 265 now...Seems like this 20 pounds feels like 100. I joined the Anniston Fitness Center and maybe that will get me back on track...

Been a long time since i've been in this part of the site.

Gonna try to come in more often!

My reflux was so bad that i went to a local stomach doctor. He put me on Ormyprazol ( can't spell it). Boy did it help mine... I almost gave myself a ulcer i think from all the orange flavored Water i was drinking...Think it was the acid in hte orange flavor..

I took omeprazole for awhile and for the most part it helped but I am soooo bad about taking pills. I mean if I ever become a hypertensive or diabetic patient and really do need routine meds I think I would die. LOL but now I just take tums or something when it acts up. Since Im not that full I don't get reflux that often.

      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!
