I hit the 323 lbs lost mark and then gained a little - it was my first gain in almost 5 years of Banding. My band was causing me a lot of problems so I had to have my first unfill! I revised to the Sleeve so that I don't regain all of that weight back! My band was a mess inside me. The tubing was wrapped around my internal organs and the scar tissuew as massive.

no, I was planning to keep my Band forever and ever! I had lost so much and had not one problem until last March, I started having problems eating anything. I even tried Protein Drinks and I would get stuck! It was horrible. It turned out to be the massive scar tissue. It caused my band to be super tight even though I hadn't had an adjustment in over a year and a half. I was compliant with every rule and had few fills and not one unfill or even a small unfill. I went into have it removed and the insurance approved me for a revision.

I can finally say that I lost 100lbs!!!! Holy Cr*p I never in a million years thought that I could BUT I did!!!!! I have a great Banded support group and my banded husband has helped along the way! This has been somewhat of a roller coaster or a mind f*ck as I normally say. When you are not restricted you want restriction and when you restricted you wish you could eat lol. I am almost 14 months post op. I went from my heaviest of 260lbs to 160lbs. I still want to lose maybe another 20lbs. At this point I think I will take it 5lbs at a time. I went to all my appointments and when I plateaued I would get a fill. I have 6.25cc in my 10cc band and I am very restricted now. I am still learning what I can eat or can not or in other words I am trying to listen to my band. I did however give up my love affair/addiction to food. I can no longer eat a bagel or a donut but I really don't care. My only regret is not doing this sooner. For all those who doubt like I once did, it is possible and this WILL be you!

      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!
