Mimin: Somehow I missed what kind of surgery you're having. You will no longer be a pear? Are you getting a TT? If you are, I am so jealous! Let me know how you're doing (and what). I wish you the best. For some reason, I'm not getting all the emails from this thread. I just got a new computer. I don't know if that could affect it. I still get the same email. Anyway, I lost 1 pound this week. Getting frustrated but trying to stay patient. Going to talk to the doctor about another fill. We'll see.

Well, halle-freaking-luia, I finally lost some weight. I'm very restricted right now with 2.25 cc. Can only get about 2 oz of chicken down at a sitting so I'm eating a little bit more frequently. I'll start back with the Walking off the Pounds tape in the morning.

Went to a St. Patrick's party last night and got lots of compliments on looking good; very nice feeling.

Karey: I am getting breast augmentation this upcoming Friday. I do want a TT but I am going to wait until after my bandiversary. Things could change in another 6 months or atleast I can hope:) After being so heavy for so many years I'm not holding my breath!

We could start the challenge tomorrow -Weights posted could be end of St. Patty's challenge and swing right into the 4th of July challenge!

Anyone interested in keeping track this time around?

I'm in for the July 4th Challenge! Let's just hope I can actually make a dent in my weight this time! The St. Patrick's day challenge went practically unnoticed by me 'n my band. I am supposed to be getting another fill on Tuesday. I am going to freak if this doesn't help!!! I've had 5 fills already and still not losing well. Still hungry almost all the time. Still able to eat too much.

Starting weight 218 - 177current - 140goal

Surgery date: September 11, 2006

I'll weigh in the morning to set my July 4th start point.

Good luck everyone!~!

I'm in for the July challenge! I hope I can do better than the St. Patty's challenge. I had a small fill today (.2 cc). I hope this gets me to that sweet spot. My starting weight for the July 4th challenge is 189. I would love to be at 160 by July 4th! I'm going to work really hard to get there. Who's keeping track?

MimIn: I wish the best with your surgery. You'll be in my prayers. Let us know all about it. Very exciting!

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
