I posted a thread called....'HELP please!'

Thanks everyone for the GREAT responses!

Thanks SuzanneG for the link.......that's great!

I now know the approach I can use to comfort him and if the occassion arises I know what to say to defend him if others say he is cheating @weightloss by having the band.

I used Nicabate gum to give up smoking.......I am going to cite examples from my life and ask if it's cheating! See, I am using your ideas...... thanks so much for the help!

I record calories to control my weight, is that cheating?

I understand (THANKS TO EVERYONE HERE) how to defend him now and comfort him.

I THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!! clap2.gif

I have informed him of this board but he does not want to join.

Additionally, thank you for helping me even though I have never had the band. I expected to get told to get off the board and the responses I got were so different.....You are all so inspiring and amazing!

Just a qucik question, can I post threads if I have any more questions about how to handle situations regarding him and the band?

THANK YOU once again! YOU have all helped me so much and I am so grateful! :whoo:

      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.

      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!
