Just Banded in Alabama



Recommended Posts

Hello Alabama Bandsters!

I was just banded yesterday, 3/14/08, in Tuscaloosa.

So far, everything is going fine! I am looking forward to sharing experiences with other bandsters from Alabama.

I was banded Thursday in Tuscaloosa. I am still in DCH because of blood clotting issues. How are you feeling?

I seem to be doing great! Just a little sore, and no problems on the full liquid diet.

I'm sorry you are still in the hospital. Was the extra hospital stay anticipated?

Hello, did you both have it done by Dr Bilton? I was done 1/28 by him. Do you attend the Genenis meetings? IF not, we meet at DCH in the Willard Autortourim (?) at 6pm 3rd thursday of the month which is this coming 3/20. Would love to see you and hear how things went.

As you can see in my sig. I have lost 26 lbs. :rolleyes: I just got my first fill this past monday. My wife got the RNY done 12/19 by Dr B and has lost 50lbs !!!!

Hope to see you Thursday :tt2:

Congratulations to you and your wife on the great weight loss!

Yes, I was banded by Dr. Bilton. I have been to the Genesis meetings a few times since the fall. It was great to hear the advice and success stories.

I'll try to make it Thursday night!

      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'. ???

      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!
