Gone for Good Club -- September 2006



Recommended Posts

Well, I've had enough. I've seen too much ugly on LapBandTalk today.

I'm seeing the same behavior that was on Obesity Help. At least there, it was an attack against anyone choosing LapBand. But here we are on the same road, yet petty behavior ruins the experience.

Someone else can take Gone for Good Club for September. I am deleting my posts and membership.

I wasn't involved in the mess, but it has ruin the site for me.

Goodbye.

Hey natenate. Give us a sec to regroup...we lost our fearless leader for Spetember, so we will probably start another thread or something? Need to work out the details.

For now, give us a little info about yourself, an introduction! And see page 1 of this thread for "how the GFG club works". Welcome!

Joyce, I'm so sorry. I hate that LBT is compared to OH. I have heard horror stories about that site, and here we are, :rolleyes: I'm sorry to see you go. Could you at least check back in on occasion? Take care of yourself. You know what's best for you. (((hugs)))

OK, I have to figure this thing out since I have done completely nothing since Day 1!

Does everyone still post weekly that is on the first page? I will try to look into starting a new thread boys and girls...

Thank you again Joyce for everything!

Thanks Kathy! Well lets see...a little bit about myself.

I was banded in June 2005 in Monterrey MX by Dr. De La Garza. I started out at 219 (lower BMI) at 5' 3'. I am now at 135, but feel I should be putting more effort into it. Not making the wisest food choices. I am from Dallas, TX. I am married and have a five year old. I work in the medical field.

Again, thanks for the warm welcome, Kathy!

Could a moderator please lock this thread?

Also, members I have created the new club thread... I don't know how to post a link, so if one of you guys can before they lock this one... that would be awesome.

      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!
