Banded And Feeling Wonderful!!



Recommended Posts

I am 2 days post-op and feeling wonderful. I do have some soreness but other than that everyday gets better! So far I have tolerated everything. No nausea or vomiting. I am walking, taking my supplements and getting my meals and Protein Shakes in. I am right on track. Just wanted to give you all an update. Good luck to all having surgeries coming up!

Gas has been awful for me as well otter. On day four my doc told me milk of magnesium which really made me feel so much better but it still sucks!

Followup...I did it! I was banded today, March 15th

No problems, just some soreness. No nauseousness. I can walk great but getting up is the challenge. The nurse said the nauseousness folks get is from the anesthesia, any surgery would be a problem for them, so no problem for me.

already tired of broth and Jello :). Progressive Soup is the best, drain the broth for and share the noodles n stuff with my partner. This was (is) a lot better than the Campbell's beef broth.

so far so good

Tina

      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!
