So, it's been a while since I originally posted on this page, I've changed my mind and back again about having surgery. The thought of complications scared me SO bad. But I've finally scheduled my surgery for Friday the 28th. I'm still nervous, but feel like I have no other way. I actually lose weight pretty fast, that's never been a problem, but I can never maintain it. Praying that this band will give the the little extra I need to keep the weight off. Looking forward to learning about you guys as we continue on this journey together!

Congrats RN925, on setting your date. You are not alone in this. I went back and forth too. I was banded this past Wednesday and haven't looked back. This forum has really helped me. Keep us posted.

      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!
