I had the 1st fill and thought it would be magic, I kept to the 24 hour liquid rule and I must admit I thought no difference still hungry, that was on Friday evening. Got up this morning tried to eat one egg with one toast (was easily downing that before the fill) but whoppee half way through felt full stopped eating. I'm happy it's working, thanks for all the support.

Hi bubba831 I lost 8kgs (17.6lbs) from the day of my op, my fill was at five weeks and one day from surgery. Doc was pleased. It really did not hurt, I felt a slight pinch, and then I waited and doc said "your finished". Real easy, good luck with your first fill.

its just a small needle like when you get a flue shot and one fill may not do it so don't get disappointed if you need more, many of us get tour green when are band is half full . I have a 10cc band and it works best at 6 cc.

You need to ask your doctor or nutritionist for this information. I had all the info from my doctor way before my sugery. Maybe read through some of your old information.

      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!
