Nope. All you need to do is go to friends, add a friend, type in your username (judych1946) then you add the username of the person you want to add ( for example: iluvyogi). It should work. ;)

I sent you a request to be friends. All you need to do is accept or ignore. Please accept ;)

yep... thanks..I do accept. i think ive got it sorted now.. (( hugs ))

Down 30 pounds is great!! I get the nauseous feeling every couple of weeks. I will have a few days where I barely want to eat and the thought of food makes me feel sick.

I am going for my third fill today. Was banded 3-1-12. Has some issues with my first fill and had to have it removed for two weeks (terrible heart burn). Had no issues with 2nd fill (2 weeks ago). Getting married on Saturday so wanted another fill before cake because I have no restriction at all in the evenings. Only at Breakfast. I am down 40 lbs so far so can't complain. Best thing I ever did for myself!

I am having issues with pain. I have fibromyalgia and am in constant pain. I need to lose more weight and maybe my knees won't hurt.

      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!
