need some support here!! I was doing really good until December, one year after my surgery. I was only 25 pounds from goal. I went back in to get another fill and Wendy decided I was too tight so she took some out. I went back a month later and had gained a pound, I feel no restriction at all now. She put some back in but I still feel very little restriction and according to my scales have gained another 1 1/2 pounds. At this rate I will be right back where I was in no time. I plan to go back in 2 weeks for another fill but now I'm scared that it won't work anymore. Has anyone else had this problem? Sorry if I'm whining too much - but I was finally starting to feel good about myself for the first time in many years and get really scared when I start gaining again. HELP!!

The St. John's support meetings for 6+ month out is the 4th Monday of every month at the surgery center from 5:30-7:00. I need to get to a meeting myself. I've back-slidden some and need to stop it before I get out of control.

I was wondering if anyone knew when the Support meeting is? I have never been and would like to go!

If you are wanting the group that is 6 months and under its the 2nd Monday of every month 4th floor in surgery center where you do your behavior class. If your 6 months and over its the 4th Monday of every month. Look forward to seeing you. It starts at 5:30 till 7 p.m They are very good!

Hi guys! I got my 3rd fill or 4th... can't remember. I was gaining a couple pounds and now i am at 100 pounds loss. Kindof stuck but i don't work out so I think that is something I need to incorporate to loose more. But i'm doing good and feel great! Anyone ever heard of Menstrual Cramps getting worse after a major weight loss?? I never had bad cramps but GEEZ they are badddd now for sure! Just wondering if anyone ever heard that from anyone?

      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!
