First of all, Donali and Kelly WOW! you look great! Love the new pics!

Kelly I am glad you sorted out your problem by having some liquid removed. It is a horrible feeling when nothing goes through. Enjoy your meals while you can have slightly biggers serves, and remember sometimes eating again activates the metabolism ( specially if combined with a bit of excersise).

cheers

ps, Its so weird! after being very careful for weeks on what I eat, went crazy on mac and cheese, chocolate and ice cream on sunday, and finally lost a kilo after 3 weeks of nothing!!!!! back to salad land now tho....

I've had that happen before, too. I think our bodies just need to be reassured every now and then that we are not in the midst of a famine and it is OK to let go of some fat.

Thanks, Tellie!

It is weird, but I've experienced that same thing - where I had dieted for a long time, and stopped losing weight, and then had a small binge, and BAM! The weight started dropping again.

Very weird. :cool:

Thanks for the compliment. I wanted to get some saline put back in yesterday, but when I showed up at the Drs office; he was gone. I did not have an appt. I scheduled a fill for June 21st to get some put back in. I have been eating salads since I got the fill taken out. This weekend is my little boy's 2nd birthday and I don't want to gain any weight, so I have been trying to diet. Maybe if I binge on ice cream I will lose a few lbs. I just had a lady tell me that the lap band don't work....she is a very sweet lady, but boy......do I disagree.

ack! did I say back to saladland? I am out of control! I actually made tamales last night (never attempted before in my life), and have been slowly but surely eating them today like there is no tomorrow! It scares me that I can still lose control this way, also because it seems, the more I eat, the more i CAN physically eat ( like my band expands when i binge or something) I scare myself, its like good old me is back.....the me that went on a rampage every time after breaking yet another diet......At least my binges have limits now.... I am just feeling like Mr. Hyde is out again :cry will *I* ever get a grip?

I hope my kilo stays away.... and my self control remembers its way back...... argh!!!

ps, kelly, hope your son has a wonderful party! all the best to Mr.2 and welcome to life with a 2 year old! ( my daughter will be 3 in November)

      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!
