Thank you all for the warm welcome.sorry it's took me a while to respond but I'm still gettingbuse to how to use this ap. I thought I'd have been wanting to pig out but I haven't and haven't lol. I get asked all sorts of questions on how much I can eat etc. I keep telling them it don't stop me from pigging out it's just an aid to help me lose weight. My journey started a few years back when I weighed 20 stone, I split with my bf and lost 2 stone then I joined weight watchers and lost another 4 but got stuck at 14 stone. Then last yr I ended an abusive relationship, my ex then wanted to hurt me so burnt my stables down.I'd already put a stone on whilst with him then another one crept on then I just got into a rut n ate what ever I want. 3 stone went bk on, all my hard work gone. I had some money so early December I decided to look into the gastric band. I then booked my op for the 17th Jan. Nearly 3 weeks in and 1half stone off.my head is back in the right place and I'm feeling great.it's a new yr a new start and watch this space cos there's a new me on its way x

      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!
