Good job on the weight loss!!!

And so funny that you were traumatized!!! I would have too!! :)

I actually weighed myself FOR FUN today....what was I thinking?!?!?!?! Anyway, our school nurse has a scale so I went to her office and hopped on that darn thing....and it said a LOWER # than I was expecting!!! Woo hoo!!! I've lost 10 pounds since April!!!!! I had to check the scale 5 times to make sure I wasn't misreading it!!

Starting liquid diet next week.....not looking forward to that!!!

Keep up the good work on the weight loss and keep me posted!!!

I posted in the other June thread, but I'm getting banded on the 8th at 10:30 in the morning. I'm really looking forward to it. I've had my bout of nerves, but I'm excited now. I really feel like I'm turning a new page!!

June 8th for me~~~~~~ Hope you are doing well

Just got approval!! June 29th surgery date for me! :) YAY! biggrin.gif This has been in the works for years, so I'm SUPER EXCITED for it to finally be reality! And scared also!

No pre-op diet for me. I just had to lose a percentage of my total weight (5% I think) to be ready for surgery. I think I'm there already but I will just keep eating well and get as low as I can before my date.

Best wishes to all of you!!!

I feel your pain! I'm a week into my pre-op diet and it seems to be easier during the when I'm at work. The weekends seem to be my problem. Today was bad. I could have eaten anything i could find! I thought about gnawing my arm off but thought I might need it later :P. I would just drink more Water or eat some cantaloupe and remember why I'm doing this.

Good Luck!

i had my band placed june 3rd, it wasn't bad, but i didn't have to do a pre op diet and now i wish i did, because i am starving, feels like i never had anything put on my stomach, i want to eat so badly, and i feel like i could, but i don't because i don't want to screw this up, anyone else have anything like this

      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!
