When did you have surgery?

Go to your surgeon and get a fill if necessary. Start logging your food for a couple weeks than make an appointment with a nutrionist and bring your food journal. This way they can see exactly what you're eating and tell you where you need to make changes.

Remember, the band is a tool not a magic wand. You still very much have to do the work and make healthy lifestyle changes for a lifetime- otherwise it's just a piece of costly stomach jewelry. The band will not work until you do.

Good luck.

The band won't stop you from buying ice cream or eating it. Just don't even go down the ice cream aisle.

Try a 3-day pre-op diet, you'll clean out, lose a bit, and wipe the slate clean

How many fills have you had. If you are vomitting it sounds like the band is too tight. The bad contrary to popular opinion is not mean to STOP you from eating anything. If you band is so tight you can't keep down solid Protein. Get a small unfil. This will allow you to eat healthy food and not realy on ice cream for your calories.

      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.

        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!
