Hello Fellow Bandsters

I want to let you all know how I was doing and check in with you all - I have now had my 3rd fill- at 5.3ccs in a 10cc band.

I will admit this fill is causing me some problems but I am keeping the faith. Would love to hear from you all!

Great job! Funny, when I saw your title, I thought good for her. But on my own journey, I have felt bummed, thinking I haven't done well.....but we are practically doing the same!!!! So I guess, good for me too!!!

Thanks for opening my eyes to my own success!!!

Thanks for all the nice words ladies! I am having a hard time with this fill I can't seem to keep much down- I am def learning new things about being stuck and as of today I think I am done with Starbucks for a while- getting stuck in the middle of the mall isn't a fun thing!!

Any tips for eating/swallowing when you have these feelings would be greatly appreciated- I didn't even to get to workout today due to my stuck nature :(

I think we have to Celebrate - my goal is 10lbs a month and hopefully I make it - need to lose 9 more to catch up but I made that my goal when I had surgery- I will say that I am now in the portion where exercise is key----- let's keep talking so we can motivate one another!!!!

Sounds great! I like the 10 lb a month idea, but for now I am hoping to achieve 5 if it never comes back! I have got to get exercising. I stsrted out strong then I let sore knees slow me to a halt. Time to step it up!

Let's do it december partner.... : )

      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!
