Hang in there, it is frustratinf when weight is steady. Just keep eating good nutrition and be sure to get heart rate up to target when u exercise. The new exercise plan is good idea. Keep your body guessing! How much have you lost?

I had my fill Wednesday and could only get .5 cc which put m at 3.5. She tried to get me up to 5cc but it was to tight and when I drank the Water I can feel it gurgling in my chest. Now everything is still going down easy again ! ! ! ! ! I am not hungry though as much and sticking to the 3 times a day meal and only a cup full. The PA said that some people in the start stomach get irritated with fills causing them to get a little at a time. Any of the old bandsters had this problem? Let a sista know LOL ! !

Girl yes, that was me. They could only fill me a little at a time. That's why it has taken me so long to lose but I consider it as a good thing because now the weight will stay off and I won't be subject to gaining like I have in the past. As long as you are feeling restriction, you will be fine. :)

Ok thanks for that input. I'm ok with losing slow as long as I lose. Even though things are going down easy still I still can eat only a little and be satisfied.

I am going to the true results out my memorial city for a fill on Wednesday. There you can get an appointment every two weeks if you need it versus going to the office on south main. If everything works out I may just continue getting my fills out there. I lost 9 lbs since the 17th when I got my first fill and stopped. So does it work like that you get fills weight loss start and when it stops it times for another fill until you hit your green zone?That's what I am getting. Can any of the seasoned bandsters respond and let me know? Thanks I am also going to post this in the main forum to see if I can get a fast response. lol

      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.

        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!
