NM Sunshine - use the code - cut and paste it and put it in your signature area. Some people have to do it more than once for it to stick. Good luck, hope that helps!

Vikki - thanks so much for your advice!

I went to signature under my profile and everything I do I come up with 'invalid' ;)

I know computers well. This is about totaly frustrating. I put my code on an empty web page and it, the image, came right up.

I just went to the doctor today to weigh in (I had to go on a liquids only diet because I had gained weight between consults) and found out I lost 11 pounds since last Wednesday! I just need to lose between 4 and 9 pounds before September 17. Let's hope I can do it. On a side note, I'd give anything for a Tomato right now. Is that really called cheating?

Katmeg99 - You can do this! An 11 lbs weightloss already is a huge success in itself on a liquid diet. ;)

You are scheduled for the same date as me 9/18/07.:whoo:

You can be my band twin. lol I'll be there for you for motivation and support. I start my pre-op diet on Saturday and I will definately be needing all the help I can get. :cheer2::banana

Poohlrv I think it is this new windows Vista and all the internet security stuff it has. I need to figure out (among a hundred choices) what in my browser, Vista or Norton is keeping me from displaying the URL. Anyone else have the New Vista?

i had my band yesterday and am home now since an hr ago.

i feel great. just tired. i haven't had any pain yet... which surprised me.

the surgeon told me that everything went reallly well no problems

and today i had the leak test and got to see the band. it was cool watching the liquid barium go down and follow the trail. he said perfect!

so i go back to him next week. i'm on a full liquid diet for one more week next week i'll get soft foods. :wacko:

The nurses were wonderful. i was the only patient last night and the 3 of them liked that.

      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!
