I feel your pain! I was banded 7/27 and have lost 20 lbs. Have not lost an OUNCE since my 2 week post op. I have had 2 fills and still nothing. I am very frustrated.

i did have a reassuring meeting with someone last week. While waiting on my 2nd fill, I was chatting with a woman in the waiting room. She was banded in 2006 and only lost 20 lbs her entire 1st year. Her second year the weight started melting off and now she has lost 180 lbs! So, everyone is different. I have to hold on to that thought. Hang in there!!!

Still doing great...Love this band

Today's weight 252

Total Loss 48.....

I feel so good about this choice I made for my health.

I am doing much better today since surgery. I had a battle with the gas villian and he won first round. As a matter of fact it was a TKO :( . I got up and refused to be a victim/quitter again. I started to walk and I walked until i was sweating and bit tired. Then I walked some more and guess what I knock out the gas villian this time.:lol:

I was also banded 7/13/11 and i am down 17 lbs! Its unbelieveable!! :D

I can't wait to start on mushies 7/27/11. I love eggs...lol

Highest Weight 307

Doc Visit 300

Pre Op (14 days) 287

Surgery 285

Today 283

To all everyone....Good Job on your sucesses

Overall I have been satisfied with the lap band and have had few problems. Yesterday I had a bad vomiting episode and today it is hard to keep food down without major slime. I've had three fills and the last one was a few weeks ago. Any thoughts?

      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!
