I'm not starving I'm just sick of liquids, but I know it's not worth messing up my band! Think of it this way one more week of liquids and you'll be off to mushies! Then, it's done!

It is definitely hard this time of the year to have a surgery like this.

I am 3 days post op and was fighting a bit of a battle with everything looking so good! I did really good and my family is very supportive so my mom served me my broth and the dinner table. I had no problem helping my mother get all the food together! Just think next year we will be lbs lighter and able to eat. Congrats everyone!

Very normal. Im not hungry just the want. Want pizza and all the goodies here at work. Cooking for the family is hard. Its funny you dont realize how much you used to taste test while cooking, lick your spoon or finger. Its been tought im only 4 days post op and down 8 lbs since getting banded. My scale has been great motivation.

      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!
