One Year Band Anniversary Today!



Recommended Posts

Today is my one year anniversary of being banded. I could not be happier. It's been quite a year. Today I am down 66 pounds. For year two I vow to stay connected to this site and hit my goal weight. I'd like to hear from anyone else who was banded December 2011 to see how you are doing.

Congratulations! Glad you are doing well, keep up the great work. Must have been hard getting banded during the holidays! That is major success in itself!

Thank you! This year was harder through the holidays than last. Last Christmas I was on my liquid diet and even though there was all kinds of goodies, it was the only time they didn't "call to me" and I think because I knew I was getting banded. This Christmas was a different story and my weight has yo yo'd this holiday. The elipical did get moved back into the house so I will start using it again!

I was banded November 24 2010 and I am down 80 lbs... 5 more pounds to goal weight of 140! The last 10 lbs were much easier than I imagined I guess I am excited to get to the finish! Here is my before and after pics to give some of you inspiration!

      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!
