Hi Marissa,

Me too, tomorrow is the day, I am afraid but I think of the benefits and just try to relax, nothing to do now, I have told a lot of people so I cannot back up, plus I have been on this horrible diet for 10 days so I'm not going to trow that away. Good luck to you, see you here on the 8th so we can comment how it went.

ok guys, you'll be fine!!! Just keep thinking happy thoughts (perhaps a skinnier you!!!)

Just had band yesterday.

Yes, there is discomfort. But it wil be worth it.

Believe me, if I can do it, You can do it!!!!!!!!

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

One bit of advice - Have pain med's filled before you leave hospital, its much better than waiting around for them when you get home.

Looking forward to hearing from you after your out. We can compare notes!!!!

Hi Marissa, I've been watching your progress on lapband talk. I'm glad it is finally here for you. Just take it easy the first few days and you will be fine. I didn't have any of the gas people talk about. My recovery was fairly easy. The only thing that hurt a little was a little sorness at the port site where the incisions are. Good luck to you. Let us know how you are doing okay.

      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!
