Lurker coming out- Surgery on 1 April



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone.. I've been lurking on lapbandtalk for quite a while and joined last year.. I thought I'd finally come out and just say Hi. I've been through several months of getting ready for this (since August 2010) and have gotten approval and a surgery date. I've gotten invaluable information from this site, and hope to be more active on here now. I have a very busy life with 2 teens, a pre-teen and a disabled husband.

Have a great day everyone! :D

Hi there! Congratulations on the upcoming surgery. I am also a longtime lurker and I finally got my surgery date set for April 5th. So exciting. Good luck with your journey.

Hey! I bet you're nervous and excited huh? I know I am... this diet is kicking my butt! I ended up "cheating" somewhat yesterday, although my doctor said that the first week of the diet I can supplement with a high protein/low carb/fat meal here and there. I still felt guilty and it didn't taste good.

Hello and Welcome. I too am a long time lurker and only recently introduced myself. My surgery is set for April 6th. At first I was very excited, but now with just under 2 weeks to go...I am very very very nervous.

I'm definitely nervous and excited. I'm sure as it gets closer I'll be more nervous. Good luck with the diet...you're almost there!

      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'. ???

      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!
