Since July 22, 2010 I have only had two fills due to their schedule not working with my schedule,,,therefore,,, I haven't had a fill since October and I've lost all motivation to get back into the routine again... My diet is wayyy off of what it should be and I've gained about 20lbs back out of the 50lbs that I had lost...any suggestions? I am going to get a fill next Monday and I'm hoping that it will help me get back in the right state of mind....has anyone else gone through this?

I don't have any experience to lend, but I'm glad you're finally getting a fill. Maybe you can tell yourself to see this fill as starting over- like, pretend you've just had surgery and this fill marks the beginning of a big change back to the "right" way of eating. I hope it works wonders for you!

While I have not experienced this my cousin has & I know she to is struggling with wt gain :( I think u almost have to give urself a lil mental "check" and tell urself u r going to recommit & that it is worth it! Don't beat urself up to bad about the weight gain. Remember that u have kept 30 lbs off! Way to go! R u still tracking ur food? If not start. R u exercisin? If not start. I hope the fill helps u...

I was banded July 14, 2010 and fortunately have not had this problem. Have you tried scheduling your appointment so that it is an extended lunch from work. I have to drive about 30 mins to my appt from work and if I can't get in at the end of the day I will schedule early and just use it as my lunch break and return to work.

Your fill this time will prayerfully be what you need to get the weight loss rolling again! I will be cheering for you! :)

      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.

      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!
