Feb. Bandsters lb. lost so far



Recommended Posts

I was banded on 2/20, lost 20 pounds so far, doc was very happy with me. As most on here, eating more, getting more hungry each day...was nice the first four or five days with zero hunger pains.

I have lost 19 pounds first week but seem like it has slowed down. I am still on liquid phase. Anyone have this happening. It seems as little is going in it would still be coming off.:thumbup:

I was banded Feb. 12th and total I've lost about 16 pounds since before surgery. I won't get a fill until the end of March, so I'm eating more. Well, I'm eating alot smaller amounts than before but I've noticed I can eat more times in the day than before. It's quite frustrating!:angry:

Banded on 2/4/08. I have lost a total of 20 lbs since surgery. Have been gaining and loosing the same 3 lbs since mushies/solid foods. But at least I have not gained and kept my loss at 20 lbs.

Trying to maintain until 1st fill March 19.

My doctor is very conservative and does not do fills sooner than 8 weeks, so my first fill won't be until the first week of April.

Hello All, I got my band on 2-29-08 in San Antonio, Tx by Dr. Gonzales. I can say that I am doing really good. I thought that it was going to be worst than it has been. I am getting over this clear liquid diet, but I vow to hang in there because I did not do this just to got back to old habits. I have been really craving toast with butter and jelly, but I refuse to give in. I am really thankful that I found this site and all of the information that you all have provided has been awsome. So far I have lose 5lbs since being banded....

Hi!

I was banded on February 15. According to my bathroom scales I am down 18 pounds since surgery. I won't update the ticker until I see the doctor again.

I was banded 2-08-08 and counting my 3 day pre-op diet I'm down 27 pounds. (I think the pre-op diet helped me lose about 5 pounds, I'm not sure.) It slowed down at about 25 pounds down and goes up and down a pound here and there. I'm so grateful for such quick loss. I get my first fill this week, on 3-06-08.

      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!
