She was on UK tele the other night (Parkinson) She was telling him about her operation & definately said she's had a band.

She described it to him in quite good detail.

Defo a band then!

:) Ok, now ya'll got me confused! Any way we can email her and get the REAL story on this? I've been hearing it's Lapband for her. I like her also and it's amazing that she's as well grounded as she is since she lives with Ozzy. :cross-eye He'd make me :banana just trying to UNDERSTAND what he's saying! LOL!

There is a procedure called Vertical Bypass Surgery (VBS) where they staple your stomach and then place a band around the top part of the stomach much like our band. She probably did have the band but also had her stomach stapled for this procedure. I do believe it is reversible but not as easily as ours.

Anne Wilson from "HEART" had the band placed.

Al Roker from the "TODAY" show had the bypass

Carnie Wilson from "WILSON PHILLIPS" had the bypass.

Hope this helps clarify things

      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!
