Hi. I was banded at Dolan Park on March 29th. I got an email with my first appt but when the dietician rang(13days post op) she brought the appt forward slightly and also booked my second fill( which is this Thurs, my first fill was 5 weeks and 2 days post op).

My hunger started at about day 5. Although you might feel fine immediately after surgery, your energy level increases and the swelling from surgery reduces so you naturally have more of an appetite. I have had ups and downs all through, lost weight immediately gained about 4lb then down more and up a bit. I think it's only when you've been through it that you realise daily weighing is perhaps not the best thing lol.I do still weigh daily tho:)

      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!
