Think I finally found my "full/stop eating" sign... I start burping....

I start with hiccups. After I hiccup, I can only have about 1-2 bites after that. Burlington happens if I try and push it.

Hello Ladies, I had my surgery March 28th, so far so good. I have had some gas issues but other than that I started at 231 in December of 2011 and I was 218 the day of my surgery and now I am 211 three weeks later. I am so excited for those who are about to walk into a new chapter in their lives.

I got a 1.1 fill yesterday making my fill 4.7 in a 10. Hoping this makes a huge difference at night.

I use Vitamin e oil on my scars. Shocked at how great they look

I feel so discourage. Since getting banded on March 29 its like I'm at a stand still with my weight. I'm hoping I did the right thing, with getting this lap band. I don't get my first fill till 15 of May. Hopefully I can get some kind of restrictions then. I'm walking every morning 30 minutes. My diet isn't bad, just frustrated.#hope it will b worth it.

      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!
