I like Governor Christy...you'd never catch Rick "Pretty Ricky" Perry making such a personal confession. I'm voting for him if he runs for President.

I'm in Houston...being banded through True Results this month.

Me too, weird both in same town, both got lapband, both married someone from New Jersey. WTF! are you my doppleganger!?!?!

Anyways, it's great to see a high profile individual take obesity by the horns and tell everyone in the world his story.

@Aeromech, does your wife complain when there is no kraut for her hot dog??? Or, do you have to drive 3/4 across town to get a "slice of pie"??

Or insist the Jersey Shore is the prettiest place on earth???

Actually she doesn't like kraut, she does complain about the lack of good pizza and loves Mrs. Ellies pizza. Yes it's clear across town from us... Lol She watched every minute of jersey shore too...

My wife actually has me drive across town to Central Market to buy her Sabrett hot dogs, saurkraut and mustard when she wants that Jersey food.

For her pizza urge we do Kennedy's Chicago pizza. She gets the thin crust and says it compares to NYC style.

I like Dough Neopolitan Pizza on Blanco. It's lap band size and super thin crust I can get down.

I've been there twice in 18 months since being banded.

Did anyone use the same Dr. as Governor Christie. I read some bad things in the news about him and pending law suites. Wish the best for the Gov even though we would differ politically I know this fat issue knows no bounds.

He used the same doctor that Rex Ryan (NY jets coach) used. I live in PA & I really like Gov Christie. I hope he does well.

      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!
