Recommended Posts

Hayy everyone my name is lissa and I'm 19 years old and was banded this wendeaday that just passed! can't believe how fast the process went but excited that the challenge has finally started and can't wait to see how much I lose! right now the only pain I am getting is the gas pain which I heard is normal but besides that I been up and about. The liquid diet for two weeks sucks, I just want that part over but I'm doing good right now. how's is everyone else doing that have been banded? And if anyone has any question ask away because i sure did lol

Glad to read you are recovering well, remember this time is for you to heal, dont worry about losing weight, concentrate on eating helathy and right, chewing well and getting in your Protein and Water, the fills will start to help with more restriction but dont be too down if u have to wait till u have a few fills before u start feeling 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!
