Crap. Lol. Counting the days until my first fill on the 30th. Ive still managed to keep the weight Ive lost off- but havent lost any weight in a week. Any other early April bandsters got their appetite back? :glare: Okay so Im not pigging out but I do actually have hunger now.

Im still losing. My appetite has picked up a little bit but nothing like it was pre surgery. My first fill will be in mid May. Doc insists on 6weeks post op.

well, I was banded in the 18th, today is the 22nd and I'm about to knaw my left arm off... start full fluids tomorrow. I'm happy I'm a fast healer and I have one of those "bounce back" bodies, but it would have been a-ok with me, had my swelled belly resisted hunger for a couple of extra days! Don't know how I'll make it to May 20th before my first fill!!!!

Apparantly the time from surgery to your first fill is called Bandster Hell. We can make it! Just heal, try not to go overboard, and know soon the weight is going to FALL off. :biggrin2:

      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.

      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!
