I was banded July 25th and it has been the best decision of my life. Today I take my wife to the hospital for surgery at noon to get her band. Very excited for her but at the same time a little nervous for her. I know there is nothing to worry about, just second nature to be worried I guess.I know she will do fine. So excited for her. I will update later tonight or tomorrow morning how she made out. Good luck to her!!

I agree! I would never wish for my partner to NEED the band, but how awesome would it be to know exactly how the other person is feeling and know how much you will be able support each other :).

Thank you everyone for your kind words. Everything went well today and she is recovering great. She is staying over night because she is a type 2 diabetic. Going to pick her up first thing in the morning. Once again thank you to everyone!

      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!
