Recommended Posts

Ok im so happy to have gotten the surgery!! I have lost 27 pds so far but im ready for a fill , my fill date is may 9th. I feel like im eating too much or im always hungry , im not eating any sweets and trying not to eat many carbs because iam diabetic but since the surgery i have been taken off my metformin, byetta and glipazide im so happy cause my levels have been running between 80 and 100. So i must be doing something right , so is anyone feeling hungry all the time b4 their first fill? Anyways im looking to lose about 170 pds so i have a ways to go , but i know if i really want it i can do it!! Same to everyone else needing to lose weight! I keep telling myself [[ food ]] is not my friend!! So good luck to everyone!!:lol:

HI Sherri

Yes I am right there with you. Banded march 25 and my fill will be april 30. I am hungary all the time but must admit I am able to recognize most of this hungar is head hungar. My dilemma is I can eat and eat without consequence until LATER when I have a stomach ache for hours. Julie

      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!
