How much weight have you lost?



Recommended Posts

I LOVE my band... no regrets at all... it's changed my life.

I started with a 54" waist... now 32".

The band is only a "tool". You do have to work with it. If I had to do it over again I would do it again in a minute.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions or if you would like to chat on the phone I'd be happy to call you. I have free long distance.

Tom, Toronto

Banded July 6 06

I have lost 52 lbs since the beginning of my journey. 42 of those pounds were from my pre op diet until now. I was banded on October 19th, 2012

Best decision I have ever made. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

      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!
