Yes....3/14/13...I was 187 when I was banded...I am down to 160 as of today! But, I am working really really really hard. I go to a trainer 2 times a week, try to do cardio for an hour 3 times a week, and try my best to eat healthy...I have cut back on wine, my favorite...and just try to stay away from junk.

My BMI was 31 when I got banded....not very high I know...I did it with my mom and we went to Mexico. I am very happy that I did it....despite the hurdles along the way...my mom has also lost 20 pounds :-)

You look amazing! I pray that My band works for me as your band has worked for you and not to discredit your hard work and dedication. Good job!

      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!
